Why are mods removing posts related to Hong Kong

The mods claim its not related to the game but it is. The mods say they make some exceptions. Disliking rito supporting hong kong is apparently somehow not an exception. The mods say this causes debates. What debates? Its like trying to claim Hitler is a god. Its not a debate, its someone making a fool of themselves. I didn't know mods were paid by China too.

Politics are not allowed on the boards. It's very clear. Hong Kong is clearly about politics and has nothing to do with LoL. It has no place on this board.

Discussions relating to Hong Kong inherently violate our rules against political and social discussions. Similarly, we don’t allow discussions about an individual mentioned in this post, and if you continue to violate our rules, we will suspend your account, full stop.

How the fuck does it have anything to do with the game?

Politics are forbidden unless they directly relate to the game. The most recent case would be Net Neutrality, which was inarguably related to League and its ability to continue to function. I fail to see how Hong Kong is on that degree at all.

Don't forget that Riot is owned by a massive Chinese company called Tencent.

Just because you believe in a certain political conspiracy theory doesn't mean anyone else does, and neither does it mean that it isn't political.

Literally the only reason you're posting about Hong Kong is in an effort to get League/Riot banned in China. People are doing the same thing to Blizzard, Disney, and other companies.

You're not doing anything to help HK by spamming the boards. You're just trying to start shit, and that's not welcomed here.
