Not that I particularly care I just find it funny that I can’t reply to:

you’re not Superman

Speak for yourself!

Clark Kent

With a relevant (to superman) and harmless enough joke about how the FBI is claiming Charlie Kirk is The Man Of Steel AKA Superman, and how I don’t believe that he actually was Superman. I mean I didn’t even celebrate it, I just don’t believe the claim.

But they left up all the other comments detailing why I don’t believe the FBI and frankly I’m baffled.

    I don’t even know what’s going on here, but this doesn’t seem like it’s removal worthy, so I’ll go with PTB.

    Sorry mate, but this is a stupid thing to get worked up about. Are they lying? Duh. Is it a distraction? Also duh.

      Oh it’s fine, NBD really it’s just a removed comment not even a ban, I just thought it was silly enough for a mention lol. Thanks though!

    The context was ice cream. Why did you bring the whole Charlie Kirk thing into it? There are plenty of communities for politics, I’m not surprised a wild detour like that was removed.

      One comment therein said “you’re not superman.” A comment replied to it with a joke about Clark Kent, and then I replied to that with a joke about charlie kirk recently being touted as superman. By your “off topic” logic, the Clark Kent joke should also have been removed as it isn’t related to ice cream either. And if it’s just “anything slightly related to politics gets banned there” which I highly doubt and is not in the rules, why not remove the subsequent comments in the thread in which I expand on why I don’t believe the FBI specifically?
