Hmmmm seems like some pro labor mod is doing some apologia for crimes that people hung at Nuremberg for.

Forgive me for dispensing with civility while hellfire rains down.

I would prefer this post be restored or the rules be updated for clarity

    Why is it ok for mods to remove posts without reference to rules?

    What is the point of rules if they don’t bind mods?

          Yes… no response in the sub 1 hour timeframe since you messaged me.

          I consider editorialised headlines to break global rule 0 of AZ, especially when being deliberately antagonistic in attempting to provoke a fight from those with differing opinions to you. ie don’t be a dick. If you want to pick a fight, do it elsewhere.

          In this case, I agree with the broad strokes of your opinion on the topic of the article you linked. Repost it with the original published title and it will stay. Add your own commentary to the post, not the headline.

              No. AZ isn’t run by rules lawyers, no interest in posting every single possible action that contravenes “don’t be a dick”.

                I am not trying to be antagonistic, why is submitting a news article with an edited headline being a “dick”?

                being deliberately antagonistic in attempting to provoke a fight from those with differing opinions to you

                this was not my intention, I don’t want to trigger a fight, just plainly state how the actions relate to IL and the RBO to highlight the horror.

                    This seem distinctly power tripping, you wont explain your reasoning as to how the rules cover it. Meanwhile you project intentions onto me I do not have.

                    I am sorry to have annoyed you, but with the rules as they are I feel like you are behaving unreasonably. If you ammend them to cover submissions of news articles not copying their headlines (and whether there is a difference if the article is posted in the body or not) I will be entirely satisfied with the removal.

                    I know running coms can be stressful, but it can’t be arbitrary.

          Did you message them at 4am on a Monday morning AEST? Because it looks like you did.
