I do appreciate that he thinks there are ten of us Nazis when there are actually only a few doing the work of ten. No, that is a lie. Moderating this page is a cakewalk rural outing. I sleep through most of it. Pretty much everyone minds their P's and Q's and life imitates art. Idyllic and sane, yeah sure, that is how it is ...... right.
The FB page I moderate is a town page owned by a local fellow. It is by far the most popular of the several pages focused on our area. His rules are simple. Be nice, no politics, no over commercialization, no profanity, and ferchrisakes, pay attention to the flagged words not allowed by FB. That limits me somewhat, but I am guessing my world champion grasp of the many ways profanity can elevate a person spiritually may be one reason I was asked to help. Hire the criminals if you want the best protection.
I was directly responsible for the initial dust up this A.M. Our righteously indignant friend of Acton made a claim about Covid and a local business without supporting evidence. I deleted the comment and forgot about it. In less than an hour of escalating enraged comments, he called on the owner to fire us 10 Nazis while shoving something unnamed where the Sun don't shine. And with his parting, ride off into the sunset remark, what he meant to say was the perfect opposite of what he ended up saying:
“We live in America and have the freedom of speech you are trying to distinguish that and it’s disgusting."

The moderators/admins for the local FB pages here are usually sleeping. Some remarkably vitriolic exchanges end up going on much too long. Mud is flung, no one cares.
Nan - Not much gets by the eagle eyes of the few moderators on my local page. Myself ond one other are the slackers and we don't miss much. we are just more forgiving I guess. But the one good thing is all of us seem to have each other's back.
