Hey all,

As discussed here, I am looking for 3 new moderators to help with this community.

Please review this post and vote for the candidate you would like to see help on this community.

In no particular order, the candidates are:

I invite you to review users post history when deciding on voting.

This thread will be open for 72 hours (until Friday June 23rd, 8PM ET) at which point voting will stop. Any votes after this time will not be counted. I will try to lock this thread after that time so people do not accidentally continue voting.

Everyone gets 1 vote, including the users being considered. The top 3 will be given mod powers of this community to help with organization of discussions and votes.

Please vote by calling the persons name. For example, if I you wanted to vote for TheDude you would reply with: TheDude

    I follow the rules very strictly. Is it the Donald posts you dislike? Those are satire. I figured that’d be obvious.

    It’s not satire.

    Let me be clear, I’m not questioning whether you believe it’s satire. I’m saying that after 7 years of edgelords coming up with worse and worse posts and memes to one up eachother, and now politicians saying things that were once “just a joke”, it’s not satire or a joke anymore. It’s becoming truth to some people, and that’s a problem.

    I’ll also point out that r/the_donald also followed the rules strictly. That usually meant pushing the rules right to the line, and making the admins have to adjust the rules that were more ambiguous. I hope you’re not following that example.

      My posts are satire. One says God Save the Queen, and the other has Trump portrayed as a child.

      If Trump is going to be running again with God Save the Queen and wearing a Fortnite Shirt, then shit, my bad.
