      You make all the jokes you want. Just not ones which disparage people with disabilities, are bigoted, racist, etc.

      This isn’t a comedy club in the 90s. We don’t need your “edgy” humor.

        Some people do! It’s just the Internet. Chill. You aren’t saving humanity by being a mod. You’re the equivalent of a hall monitor.

          You’re welcome to think so. You are not welcome to violate our community rules. Namely, rule 6:

          Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

          And I don’t care if you don’t think it is offensive. People with that disability sure as fuck do.

          Since you would like to make a bigger deal out of this than you should have, I’ll also tell you that if you violate any of our other rules, you will have to find another place to post for a while.

            Oh no. I’m being told by the hall monitor that I can’t play on the Internet anymore. You really intimidated me and taught me a lesson. Thanks for that extra helping of something I won’t ever give a shit about.

              You are now violating rule 5:

              Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

              But I’m feeling magnanimous and will give you one more chance.
