It is a user posted mod, and since when does the site have a rule against mods that include politics?
This is just Nexus mods getting triggered over a harmless, funny mod.

If as a host this kind of thing has been more trouble then it's worth in the past, I can see being proactive here. I wouldn't want to have anything to do with it on my website either given the current environment. More then that, it's a privately owned site, so if they don't want to host it, they don't have to. They spend much more time explaining these moves then I ever would. They always have. Complaining about what they will and won't host is like complaining about the flowers your neighbor will and won't put in their garden. They might hear you...but I doubt seriously they give a shit about your opinion on their yard. More to the point, if you are going to be an extreme wanker in your reactions to things that clearly have solutions that work for everyone involved then perhaps they would prefer you didn't come to their yard in the first place? A billion places on the Internet to get files and because one place doesn't want to be on that list people are going to waste time on extreme anger? My suggestion for people who feel a compulsion to be overly angry about this is to seek therapy for those anger issues while simultaneously seeking that alternative download site.

The only nut jobs are those moderators on Nexus trying to silence people.

They pick and choose what they think is appropriate. But still allow other garbage that should also be removed.
And they wonder why people trash them when they act that way?

Yeah, they deserve all the backlashing they get!!

Smart move Nexus.


and in typical scumbag fashion, "The mod site's owner reports receiving death threats after taking the mods down."
The next 4 years are going to suck so bad.

Typical scumbag fashion indeed, because only right-wingers are prone to violence.

I hear Minneapolis is still sweeping up ashes... 🤫

Nexus mods has become a shit hole. They need to stay out of political agendas and stop being assholes.

They're trying to, hence removing these mods. Sadly the non-gamer tourists who relentlessly want to push their political agenda are now sending them death-threats over Nexusmods wanting to, well, not have this political stuff pushed onto their site.

Did the Captain Trump Mod include that you had to pay him a monthly fee or he would not help you? Devil
In the current political and social climate, don't be an aggressive monkey . Show that you have evolved that important thin sugar coating called civilization. Don't fall for the fools.

And yet they have a few mods for Skyrim where you can kill children in the game, and that somehow is ok?

Yeah, they suck as a site.

Sounds like it's not an issue of content but of user behavior

Nexus is a private platform, darks. They get to choose what they want to host.

Just because they don't have the mod doesn't mean it's still not out there.
