What are the rules for political content on layouts? At another gallery I've had a layout deleted due to it being too political. Thinking of today's MOC - if I'm writing to my future self, I will most likely will get into a rant about a couple of rulers in this world. :agree
 
I know for previous MOC challenges that had iffy journaling I messaged the host about it then blurred the journaling for the gallery copy like this

We want to straddle the line between encouraging our members to be themselves, while still respecting the beliefs and opinions of others. That goes both ways. So we ask that our scrappers understand that not everyone will agree with your layout; we also ask that the rest of the community understand that you don't have to agree with every layout you see in the gallery. Both pages AND comments to those pages need to be respectful of others. I appreciate you recognizing that political layouts have the potential to be polarizing. Jennifer suggested a great compromise of creating the page you want to create, but blurring out any journaling or sections you think might cause an issue.

That's what I did with my MOC layout that had the state of the world chronicled in it. People are so easily offended by differing opinions that I steer clear!!!
