      Yeah, that’s great. What’s the point of the moderator removing a comment if somebody like you is going to come along and repost it?

        What’s the point of having a modlog that allows anyone to publicly see the comment that was removed?

        The purpose was to show that they weren’t making some off-colored joke, as some suggested, but rather making a hateful statement in general. It was removed for violating rule 5. I censored out the slur, so if the mods want to remove my comment, they will. Feel free to ask them to do so.
