Why was the thread closed? Why is this forbidden to be discussed at Neogaf?
Using some critical thinking skills would have been a better option than making a new thread to complain about moderation. When it comes to "wokeness," part of disliking that particular brand of holier than thou moral hall monitors is wanting to be free to just talk about games again, and we ironically can't do that when everyone is making threads to complain about woke people.
If you've been paying attention, discussing this isn't forbidden at GAF, but creating endless threads complaining about it is. That's why your thread was immediately closed, while the Insomniac thread has been open for over a week now. Because that is actual news and a conversation about that news, while your thread doesn't really offer anything new.
As someone who has been on GAF for a while now, I think the mods here do a good job of allowing conversation about all of this, but at the same time not letting it monopolize the entire forum.
