The only things that have been banned outright are Swastika flags and proven use of hate-based bits as laid out in the sticky about all this.
In Roleplay, and in playing up a group for whatever reason, be it Gameplay or otherwise, there's more latitude for use. Forum posts do not hold the same rules as a flag, as those can be individually addressed, debated, what have you. We get that you're firmly Antifa, we get that there are some of you who seem to believe that any and all references to all things Reich or fascist-related ought to be shitcanned and never shown the light of day. However, that simply isn't going to happen. Might as well request we ban all real-world imagery, names, themes, etc.

Misley wrote:The flag of Utasha has been shown to contain "hate-based bits" as it was the emblem of the fascist Independent State of Croatia which committed genocide against Roma, Jews, Serbs, and Muslims. Scolopendra said that because Utasha's flag doesn't contain a "flaming grenade," that it's "probably harmless" even though it is clearly the symbol of the regime that practiced genocide. If that emblem is permitted, then why isn't the swastika?

His Holiness Max himself stated that this would never be allowed. Both to the Admins/Mods and I believe he also stated this in a MaxChat (Might be wrong in this part, someone could verify).

Max did rule on it and the simple argument of his site; his rules is in play. Having said that they are pretty lenient for many things.
The rule itself: search.php?keywords=Nazi&t=260044&sf=msgonly
I agree with it's banning as the wankers who want it (not suggesting anybody on this site) tend to be wannabes.....

For the same reason that the Hammer & Sickle isn't banned, when people see the Israeli flag the first reaction isn't the wardead from the issues in Gaza and elsewhere. Yes this is contentious, no it is not up for further debate.
