Black Lives Matter. The moderation team unilaterally agrees.
The moderation team is a collection of 6 humans from all over the country. We are not representing DC Universe or DC Entertainment or Warner Media or AT&T. We are representing ourselves, we are representing the ways we are speaking about these issues with our friends and family, we are representing the way we cheer you all on as you passionately, maturely, and intelligently discuss these issues in the place we are responsible for keeping that way.
If there are more nuances that branch off from this discussion that pertain to DC stories and characters, start that conversation. We’ll help you keep them on track. We will combine redundant conversations, as they create split discussions about the same topics, and deprive a greater conversation from evolving.
This is the reflection I made on the matter that @Nathan.Payson was referring to, which is, once again, the words of a human being living in the heart of Los Angeles.
For now, the moderators will be staying vigilant in their assignments to oversee the bigger picture and facilitate important discussions. Take advantage of our support, start or continue hard conversations, stay on topic, and keep it DC-focused.
I believe there are also conversations going on in Iceberg Lounge you can check in on to share resources and talk about meaningful action that impacts the systemic issues. If we can work together to look at the rotted heart of the matter, the changes will resonate out across every piece of reality as we know it, including the comic book industry.
Start at the center. Stay focused. We can do this.
