Thing is, by that notion, it's not just him that should be gone. I think the moderation is exactly fine as is. Light handed and only really used when someone's way out of line. And yes, people have been banned since SO began modding. Authoritarianism is never good, whether I agree with what someone says or not.
I've said this before, but there is an ignore button. |

I actually really liked the look of SB and AT Joes. SB Sci-Fi is a really great figure but I just couldn't handle the limited POA on the AT Joes. I tried to like them and bought Hawk and he literally fell apart in my hands. That was a few years ago but I suspect it was the gold plastic.
Can I sign up as a guinea pig?

The Space Force is a joke. Cool concept but not sure how a country that scaled back it's space program and private contractors are taking it over for the most part really need it right now. Cancel a health committee but put money into this? Man 6 months from now cant come soon enough.

Private industry will continue to move into space, and there’s no reason to try to stop it. In every ocean of our planet, there are already private industries and civilians operating at all hours, and thus a need for our military to be there too. The same will soon be true for outer space and earth orbits. Many presidential administrations will share this defensive responsibility, and not just the present one. Twelve different presidential administrations have been responsible for the US Air Force since establishment, regardless of which political party that president originated from, and yet life goes on. The same will be true of Space Force, which will be needed for missions as long as the United States and outer space continue to exist. It’s a myth that we are not exploring our oceans. The reality is that we are spending more money and effort doing that now than we ever have before. It has played a critical part in why the United States has became the world’s top energy producer. Our country has more health committees and medical research happening right now than ever in its history. In the past two months, our military has dedicated more personnel, technology, and resources into numerous missions to help the civilian public deal with a global pandemic. My wife still hasn’t returned home yet from her mission to the Javits convention center in New York City, and she was among the very first soldiers tapped for the duty (side note: she did make it back to Fort Campbell, and has passed all tests, so she’s virus free and safe while at a guarded quarantine location on this base). Just like the expression, “chew gum and walk” … G.I. Joe and the United States military is capable of defending the world from orbit, exploring undersea resources, and discovering the cure to a world health crisis, and all done simultaneously.

The real problem is our country’s penchant for printing more money to pay for all these things.
...but I digress. I ordered a Space Force Trump figure, and I’d love to see Hasbro bring back the space theme with its figures!

Maybe Hasbro hasn’t yet created any new G.I. Joe recruits for Space Force, but an important milestone was marked today as the United States Space Force first recruits took their oaths of enlistment in Maryland this morning, and others in Colorado this afternoon, before travelling to the Space Force boot camp (for seven-and-a-half-weeks), which for now will use the Air Force BMT at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland in Texas, but with an added space-specific curriculum tailored to the needs of this new service branch.
The Space Force wants diversity to be one of its top priorities, and so of these seven recruits, two are women, and two are black recruits. The goal is to have 2,500 members by the end of this December, and grow to 6,500 active-duty members by the end of fiscal 2021. Semper Supra! (that’s the Space Force official motto, meaning Always Above)
