This topic should have been closed on day 1.

It's absolutely ridiculous that the guy abuses the entire chess.com community, and the moderators don't see any problem with that.

Maybe they're afraid of being accused of being homophobic by shutting it down.
During Trump's first term, I had a cartoon image of Trump and apparently someone complained and they took it down. I argued with them for weeks over it and they finally put it back because it wasn't actually against the terms of service.
But this guy is essentially bashing all of us that take moral issue with his lifestyle and the mods do nothing.

This is a chess site, not politics. Everyone should have intelligence and decency enough to not use direct political images (like yours was back then and is right now). And if those are not against the TOS (which I doubt) then they should be.

Why? Preferences are preferences. Do you really want to this site policing everyone's avatars for anything more than things like profanity and nudity?
Politics is part of life. Get used to it.

Profanity and nudity are better than Trump. But let's not discuss that here. As I said, this is a chess site.

Soooooo you want this site to ban politics but you're going to bring up politics. You just brought it up and now you want to pretend you didn't.

No, I didn't bring up politics. You did.

We were talking about something else, and then you started talking about your Trump image for no reason. That was the point when I said that it's not appropriate for a chess site.

#66, unfortunately wrong. First off, homophobia doesn’t mean you’re scared of homosexuals (although you are) learn English buddy, and before you say “Erm, actually the latín root homo means 🤓☝️” just know that nobody cares. Secondly, finding homosexuality morally repugnant is a problem seeing as its natural to be homosexual, in fact many species partake in homosexual activity, in fact- out of all mammals, humans partake in the some of the least homosexual activity compared to the percent of other mammals. 80% of zebras partake in homosexual activity. It’s natural for creatures to seek out and enjoy sexual activity. Since sexual pleasure exists past male and female relationships, homosexuality is only natural. Ignore morals for one second seeing as this is a scientific event.
