I think Australia and New Zealand are excellent examples of what we should have done. — Isaac

I've been saying this from the start and I seem to remember you criticising me for it. Am I confused or have you changed your mind or what?

But if Trump did this, NOS would complain too. He is unbiased and speaking from the heart about an injustice...

:rofl:

Your affectation for effecting conundrums is effectively unaffecting. :razz:

If everyone could stop saying "effected" when they mean "affected". You're killing me. Thanks.

"Former president Donald Trump’s new legal team got off to a shaky start in a legal brief on Tuesday, addressing their arguments to the “Unites States Senate” instead of the United States Senate, the body that will try Mr Trump on 9 February on allegations he incited the 6 January attack on the Capitol."

Everything he touches turns to moron.

"It seems like men are not welcome anymore in educational institutions such as universities and so on. This is especially true if you are a fit, healthy male."

Just based on personal experience, this rings false. The majority of my faculty, including me, in every university I worked at, fell into this category. I, nor any other fit, healthy male that I know of ever felt discriminated against. But in any case, yes, if you're going to present what sounds like a political polemic, back it up with evidence or don't bother.

Well, thank goodness Nazi propaganda was never censored. Imagine how horrible the 1930s and 40s would have been if Hitler and Goebbels weren't allowed to freely spread their ideas and instead were made victims of cancel culture! No, give me freedom or death! And preferably both!

You need to quote sources. Plagiarism isn't allowed here even if unintentional.

Stigmatizing homosexuals like that isn' t OK, just like it wouldn't be OK to suggest someone was "affected" by being a woman or being black etc etc and then ponder the problems with that as if it were an illness or whatever. Anyway, let's finish this up. I think the feedback function has been completed here.

Well, I disagree. It's not only vocabulary that determines level of insult imho.

Your comment was at least as insulting as his. But I don't delegate powers here anyway.

Fuck that interviewer.

I don't know what you're on about or really care at this point. You seem to be intent on a nitpicky argument. Stick with what Street told you.

What? I didn't delete your post or lie about anything. Posts aren't deleted before they appear. Another mod, I found out later, deleted your post after it appeared. Not going to respond to the rest.

BTW, you can get all the WSB stonks on FTX (they even have a WSB index now) and they won't stop it, guaranteed.

Fuck Robinhood. They're finished. Don't have money on a trading app but I'm well in crytpo. Come on over, WSB.

I'm not going to do that unilaterally right now, there are different opinions among the mods on levels of censorship, but there are limits we'll adhere to.

any discussion of sexuality on the forum was breaking the boundaries — Jack Cummins

No, it's not.

Yes. We don't live in ancient Greece. Times have moved on a bit.



My view, as I've expressed it also on the mod forum, is that we're not a daycare centre for moral kindergarteners.

The ghost of Robespierre will not forgive you, sir.



Well, that backfired...

Nothing never appears due to manual moderation. We don't work at the speed of light. If you want to run it by one of us, send it by PM. Don't post something deliberately to provoke us or you might be too successful.

Is rape really that bad? Is being French a disability? Are the Chinese evil? Is homosexuality a defect? All questions of a similar offensiveness that need not be dignified here imho.

That's a hammer and sickle.

The Antifa logo is


The presence of a hammer and sickle is zero evidence, in itself, of Antifa. But, of course, Antifa activists are the current right-wing version of the Nazi's "Jews": a placeholder for every scary thing they don't like and/or want to scapegoat.

:up:

Besides which, criticism of the current regime is healthy. (If done right...)

They lost, Tim. It doesn't matter anymore.

:lol:

CNN are laying it on a bit thick. He's not the Pope, guys.

Speaking of flushing, I guess we won't close the thread considering @StreetlightX's points made earlier, but I hope it just dies along with Trumpism.

America flushed the toilet. :up:

Of course, but Trumpsters will never admit that. You could be sitting on a iceberg in the Arctic and they would swear blind you were sunning yourself on the Copacabana. And would probably believe it.

:clap: :up:

Correct sentiment. (Full article behind paywall).

Last words to you: I don't discuss or debate with "western" supremacists.

Another one for the ignore list. Someone else can moderate this...

Nihilist my arse! You neo marxist, post modernist, politically correct wretch! Take it back - and knock it the fuck off. It's not right to impugn people, over and over - just because they don't drink the commie kool aid. — counterpunch

White supremacist meltdowns are fun to watch.

I understand why you want to obscure it. You guys are a dying breed. Back in the day there was nothing odd about it.

These days you have to choose your words carefully. Is that frustrating? — frank

Well put.

:lol:
