Well I personally messaged her about that user and the user is still there.

The mods will only use the rules to exclude fascists, conservatives and ancaps, never liberals, tankies or copjacketers even though the rules give you all the leeway you need. It's like an unspoken understanding on the mod team that entryism and jacketing is fine and dandy so long as it's being done by the right kind of people. And by tolerating those people, you let them multiply until all the anarchists are pushed out. If I report a conservative for promoting their ideology, they'll quickly be banned. If I report a liberal or a tankie for promoting their ideologies, their comments might get removed, but they'll otherwise be left alone. And they won't even know their comments were removed so they'll continue doing it.

And the assorted red anarchists and red statists will always be rewarded by the circlejerk for teaming up to cast green anarchists, individualists, nihilists and post-leftists as villains. The mods could put an end to that with a simple announcement to stop badjacketing non-red anarchists in the thread and handing out bans to at least the non-anarchists doing it, but they don't. That's why the majority of active users on the sub have either non-anarchist flairs or ancom flairs. Most anarchists don't have the energy to constantly fight off vicious strawmen attacks from struggle-session happy left-unity creeps. When the top mod and 1 of only 2 active mods is an ancom, it's not surprising that non-reds are marginalized.
