        Sincerely think we need a “local cranks get a pass” rule for sectarianism. Like, come on, it’s leftist on leftist violence. It’s not like they were being bigoted. What’s a little incoherent ranting among friends? They were like a mascot, and we chased them out. I’ll never forgive the mods! Not in this life or the next!

          A key aspect of BMF was that they never mentioned people by name, didn’t have any extended interactions. Every post or comment was once-off. You would never see BMF replying back to someone who replied to them.

          It’s really tough to paint someone as sectarian when they never beef with any user.
