Who's policing anything?

You're posting on a public forum, not having a conversation in the privacy of your own home.

If you don't want people commenting on what you post, a forum is not for you.

Being pedantic about the actual word doesn't change what you accused a portion of furloughed workers of doing.

Calling it baiting doesn't change what you said either.
