i really think you should reconsider the allowing of maga, it's been a term used by racists and n*zis for longer than trump has been using it. the phrase it stands for may not be inherently racist, as sure i want america to be a good and safe country too, but when people say this they want america to be great by removing poc and other marginalized folks. it's naive to believe it means anything different when maga was coined by and for racists, is consistently used by them today.
i understand your intent, not wanting to unecessarily censor people, but that phrase isn't used by people who want equality and fairness. you may not personally feel threatened by it, and that's ok, but many other people do and i would really appreciate it if the staff team would re-discuss it.

We're now currently discussing the acronym MAGA, this may result in an update on what we do and do not accept.
UPDATE: #MAGA removal from our website
After some back and forth we've come to the decisions that we will not be allowing #MAGA on our platform due to it being taken from a political slogan and instead used for racial bias and oppression. Politics isn't really something that should be on PFQ as discussion on it has a tendency to go bad pretty quickly, while BLM+ LBGTQ+ etc. are fundamental human rights, they're not politics. If you see someone with this, please report it. If you have this in your about me etc, please remove it.thank you for addressing these topics and not just ignoring them, and thank you for taking people's concerns into account and making the needed changes to the rules to suit these concerns
Thank you for taking the time to listen to peoples concerns. <3
And for supporting humans rights. <3
Love you, pfq team!

Thank you for banning that 'slogan'. It's a white supremesist mantra, and it makes even me, a white person, frightened for the people I care about.

I appreciate the original apology post, and even more I appreciate that you're continuing to listen to what the PFQ community is saying in response.
Are you planning to ban all acronyms, or just ones that contain swears/offensive language? How do you plan to handle someone who perhaps didn't realize that "lmao" or such contains a Bad Word?
