Looking at the modlog:

21 days ago in response to a question thread:

Who cares? source

Gaywallet called it out:

Please help me to understand how this can be interpreted as anything but rude and dismissive source

They never responded. No action was taken.

11 days ago :

Right. Us stupid white people didn’t realize bad words existed! source

I called this out:

Your comment is in bad faith. Take a step back to consider how you interact with people. source

They responded with:

Your comment is racist and makes no fucking sense. Take a moment to construct an actual argument instead of just throwing around some bullshit terminology you read on the Internet. Or don't reply to me again

Source: modlog (because it was deleted)

This resulted in a 4 day site-wide ban.

Today, well, whatever this is - I see it as rage bait and just generally not a good way to start a conversation. It's also worth mentioning that the username does not inspire good faith to begin with but that's fairly minor. Do you still think that this should be reconsidered?

No, thank you. I very much appreciate this transparency and expertise. I just wasn't sure, based on what I had seen in some 10 minutes of skimming. Thanks again for your noble volunteering!

No problem. I understand wanting to know more and I really appreciate the way you asked without being demanding or assuming bad intent.
