I am concerned about ten forward seemingly deciding to do a war on fascism. This community is basically insurance for those who just want pure Star Trek shitposting.

The quote does say, if you did these things, and say as much in this community. Now, certainly, Trek has politics baked in, but advocating the clearly fascist choice is kind of what they always go against. If they were checking user history to do a little purity test, I’d agree that would be going too far.
I’ve got a life. I’m not spending time going through someones post history to find out if they liked Trump elsewhere. But yeah, if you’re trying to defend fascism (or make it seem like not a big deal, like Possibly Linux was) then I’m going to kick you out of the community. Star Trek has made it aggressively clear that it has always been political since they filmed the Cage. Star Trek has also made it abundantly clear that fascists are wrong and go against everything Star Trek stands for. There is a reason that the fascists are always the bad guy.
I’m simply not going to allow someone to spread fascistic propaganda in Ten Forward. We have enough of it from the Cardassians.
So if OP wants to run off and make their own Star Trek community that tacitly approves of fascism then by all means. I just dunno how many people are going to want to engage with that.
