Examples
“I'm hoping that at some point⟳ people can put⟳ their egos aside and treat⟳ everyone as they would like⟳ to be treated themselves... but I should really know⟳ better by now. I'm aware I'm playing moralfag by scolding the assholes, but I'm not quite sure how else to get⟳ people to see⟳ just how hateful and stupid they can sound⟳ sometimes.”
“Sure enough, a few are linking to videos of Quran burnings. But not everyone is on board⟳. Here, there be moralfags.”
“There were still two big no-no's on /b/. One was child porn (though this is disputed by some hardcore users who like⟳ the way it puts off the newfags) and the other was moralfags. Calling someone a “moralfag” on 4chan was the worst possible insult. These were visitors to /b/ who issue⟳ with its depravity and tried to change⟳ it or, worse, tried to get⟳ /b/ to act on some other kind of wrongdoing.”
