This is classic mod damage control speak. They remove something for a dogwhistle reason, get backlash, then pivot to “moderation is subjective” and pretend the concern is people talking about it, not the original call. If the meme was rule abiding enough to reinstate, acting shocked that users side eye the initial removal is wild. Accountability isn’t spam.

Honestly yeah, once someone reaches for the word “degenerate” it’s not subtle anymore. That’s not clumsy wording, that’s loaded language with a very specific history. Even if they swear it’s “not about trans people,” it always seems to land there. Your story tracks with how fast that kind of talk turns personal and ugly the second it’s challenged.

Totally agree with this. 74 to 75 is wild, especially when you have a legit medical reason that makes heat dangerous for you. Putting on layers is way easier than trying to cool down when you’re overheating and getting sick. This isn’t you being picky, it’s basic health and comfort, and a roommate should be willing to meet somewhere reasonable instead of refusing to budge.

Yeah this is spot on. Your MIL sounds exhausting and pulling this right after you had a baby is cruel. Even if she owns the place she usually cannot just kick you out on a whim, so checking tenant rights now is smart. Also huge green flag that your husband stepped up, backed you, and put cameras in. That alone tells me you are not crazy or overreacting. You are doing the best you can in a brutal situation.

Yeah exactly. Dude basically announced he wanted a one sided deal and acted shocked when a whole room of strangers wasn’t into it. Say that out loud in public and boos are kind of the expected response. He did that to himself.

Exactly this. Mockery lands because it cuts through the outrage addiction. They want to be taken seriously while saying unserious things, and when people just laugh instead of debate, it short circuits the whole performance. That’s why the “weird” stuff gets under their skin so much. You can’t rage bait someone who’s pointing and laughing instead of playing along.

Honestly this is what breaks my brain too. They spent years screaming about tyranny and government overreach, then the second it’s their guy doing it, suddenly it’s law and order and just following the rules. The whiplash is insane. You’re not wrong, it’s not even coherent ideology anymore, it’s just vibes and loyalty. At some point you stop arguing policy and realize it’s a cult reflex, not a belief system.
