Pepe wasn’t initially a racist meme, but was misappropriated by alt-righ groups. The author tried to fight it, but the damages were done. So the addition to the statistic by ADL is valid, but to be taken with the context it is in.
For reference :
If I strictly apply rule 1, this should be removed. But at the same time, after talking with OP via PM, it is true that it is still kinda related to games.
For now I’m gonna keep it, but an update to the rules is needed, to better define and explain them.
Edit : After a night of sleep I have to admit I was mistaken here.
Still, I’ll talk with the other mods about better defining the rules, I feel like it is needed.
With my kinda rigid interpretation of Rule 1, this should be posted on an hardware community. [email protected] maybe ?
Edit : After a good night of sleep I have to admit I was too rigid here. I’ll be more lenient in the future about hardware related subject, when it has to do with gaming. I’d probably still remove a topic about the latest AMD CPU or similar, but games consoles and its peripherals are indeed related enough to games to be allowed.
For those who wonder, @[email protected] has my autorisation to promote his game, as long as he do not break the rules.

I’m gonna be honest with you, as a non-english speakers, this is unreadable, and kinda obnoxious.
Please take into consideration that this is an international website, that people from many different countries go to in order to talk to each other. If someone suddenly decide to use his local letters to write, most readers will just not understand what you write. At best it makes you look pedantic, at worst intentionally trying to exclude others from talking with you.
I can understand why others may be irritated by your behavior, albeit I’d condemn any attempt at brigading to harass you over it.
If you feel like it, you can ask for a brigading check to see if some accounts are following you to downvote every ones of your posts, admins can see votes and got some tools to help detect such behavior.
As he said, modlogs are public, and it seems like other user retreived the trace of what you call an “abuse of power” : https://sopuli.xyz/comment/12732467 .
It is in his right as a moderator to chose how he moderate the communities he has the right to. If he finds your comment pedantic and annoying, and chose to remove it, so be it.
I’m not taking sides here. I don’t know the whole story, and I doubt anyone else here does. With the little context provided, It’d be hard to take knowingly a side.
But in both case, this is textbook harassement as you are copy-pasting this comment on every community this is posted on. This community has a pretty clear rule against harrassement (rule 2), which you are breaching, offense for which I’ll use my g… mod given right of banning you for the time being (I’ll re-evaluate tomorrow when I’ll be less tired).
Edit : After talking with OP via PM, a ban of 7 days was issued
