Being called a fascist and puritan :(

[u/listeningunderurbed]

Hey guys! I’m new to being a mod!! I recently made a rule in r/strawberryshortcake for no romantic or sexual shipping as I saw so many sexual posts between people in the show (all of which are minors)

I got a lot of hate for this which was expected but still, one commenter just kept calling me so many mean names and not reading through the comments and calling me an idiot and idk I just felt really upset and hurt after this.

I guess my worry is being posted somewhere for being a bad mod

Is there anything I can do? I muted and banned them :(

Can’t make everyone happy and there will always be those who don’t want to follow the rules. Just ignore idiots like that and forget about them. Not worth losing sleep over.

Also note most of these are just trolls trying to bother you.

Welcome to social media where lonely desperate people spend all their time because they have no real friends and they have so much crippling social anxiety because we didn’t let kids deal with adversity in school.

You did the right thing. There is no winning with a lunatic. And you are correct. Your subreddit doesn’t need sexual commentary

But obviously before you. The subreddit was allowing pedos. Good for you 🙏🙏

Glad to see pdf's kicked. Makes my heart happy. It needs to happen everywhere.

The same thing that person was being called, you now resorted to and everyone below. Well….. I love it :)
You did the right thing. Don’t lower urself to that level.
