The mods. As they have done and should continue to. Do you think, like, a roving calvacade of antis is going to show up and take over Yuletide because Nazi RPF wasn’t allowed as a category?
As for what’s distasteful, I believe it has been in the past, when requesting murderers or major disasters or similar, deciding if the event is recent and still has surviving victims or a surviving legacy. And I’m sorry you feel that the actual Holocaust is “an arbitrary line,” but I’m sure survivors and descendants of survivors and people who have to deal with Neo-Nazis now don’t feel that way.
It’s not a matter of “Some people find underage distasteful, what if they take underage away?” (Never mind that we’re talking about Nazi RPF as category for Yuletide, not some general request like underage, and no one even has write underage even if they get that request because ODAO.) It’s a matter of “Millions of RL people died in the name of ethnic cleansing, so we’re not going to let their murderers into a holiday exchange started by a Jewish mod team.” Your idea that it’s a slippery slope from not allowing Nazis to not allowing underage is fucking moronic concern-trolling.
