Yeaaaaaaaaah, no. Here you are, getting upset about a public post someone made in their personal journal that just happened to be linked by a larger compilation comm, and you say such posts are completely irrelevant?
Do I personally like butterfly's views on Martha? No. It's unlikely that I would join a community that she moderates, as we share few interests, but her journal is her space. Her views may affect the way she moderates, but it doesn't mean that her moderation would be the end of the world. Community space != journal space.
Personally, I have no qualms joining a community where I don't always agree with the moderator. Their opinions are their own, and if they are any good at moderating, they will try to be as objective as possible.
I'd point out that smith_n_jones only added that rule two months ago, when they were called on it.
Thank you for the information. I didn't know that. That kind of citation was what I was asking for, and I respect your point.
(However, I cannot find an anti-bashing rule on OSK. It's entirely possible that there's a rule post in the community, which I can't access.)
The mods who have commented - doyle_sb4 was the only one Martha-centric mod I caught, but I didn't cross-reference - were trying to stop the Rose-bashing in their comm(s). I don't see evidence of persecution, besides the usual at Fandom Wank.
I am sorry you've had less than a positive experience with Martha comms and fans. If you think my views are completely mad, that is completely your choice, and I respect that.
