I do not think RV net has any business using political ads.... regardless of anyone's political party.
This violates RV net's rules.

I have no idea what you're talking about. I've never seen any such add on the forum.

I'm sure you know that right-clicking on a link will not open it; instead, a menu will open that will allow you to copy the link, among other things.

As I explained above, I have gone looking for the ad, even using the URL provided by someone above and didn't see the ad. Yes, members can help us find the domain of the ad and we can block it quicker than if we wait for a moderator to run into the ad.

We don't want the ad but, as explained above, we don't choose the ads and we don't get prior approval. Members can help us get rid of the ad, ignore the ad, or complain.

Yes, I can delete a political post, but I cannot delete any ads. I'm not sure why you find that surprising. Removing ads requires a technician, using software provide by Google to enter a block on ads from a particular domain.

You also have the right to tell Google what type of ads are unacceptable on your sight, at least my Google contract gives me that right. Sensorship that is not unilateral is also known as prapaganda that is more commonly associated with dictatorial environments

Ditto! I agree!
Why didn't someone at RV net tell Google what type of ads were unacceptable?
Why don't they tell them today?

The ads change, sometimes they show up and sometimes they do not. One day this week the political ad was there most of the day.
