Alright fashfinder-general, leave our trashcans alone.

No can do, lady of the suspect signature quotes. NationStates General is, as its name implies, a general access zone. No safe spaces here, only swift and terrible retribution by the moderator team whenever things spin out of control. Strangely enough the usual fascist stormtroopers frequenting this part of the forum tend not to swoon whenever such strict authoritarianism does what it does best.

Loki was a tricksome pest for the most part. Though Norse loric canon is not very consistent and he ends up doing all sorts of weird and wonderful things.

It's certainly dimly amusing when a mere gentle eyeroll at fash-panic provokes such strutting and pre-charge lowering of the horns. The accusation of an affinity for "safe-spaces" and the attendant associations with snowflakeism certainly fall within the pop-culture definitional remit of "irony", though perhaps "hypocrisy" might be a preferable nomenclature.
