About Moderation (old original thread)

:wink:

There’s not a direct link, but it is easily findable for those who care about meticulous research (so not Mason). And has some possibly hilarious details if you bother to go that far.

Jbro, via microbet, mistakenly thought ikes was cheating on his wife. If you had an idea of how old ikes was, then he would have had to have gotten married and divorced during his undergrad years, given the timestamp on that post.

Y’all just seem to jump to the least charitable interpretation of things when you don’t like someone. Everyone is fighting over moderation because they ascribe the worst possible motives to the other side. If I had told you that ikes was cheating on someone in a wheelchair, most of you would have just assumed the worst interpretation of his actions.

And if you think ikes’ story is fun, ask wellnamed how he met his wife. Some people think large age differences are icky, as we can see from the most recent Sklansky eruption.

If you think “poor, sick people shouldn’t die in a gutter” and “don’t call Obungler the n-word’” are, your words, “big changes” then they’re actually not misremembering much. DUCY?

Goddamn give an Ikes an inch.

No he didn’t. Nobody thought that. That’s fucking surreal. Ikes has a wife, has had for awhile. He met this wife on a cruise at some point years or decades ago. Ikes said they were both cheating on “significant others” and Jbro said “spouses”. It’s like in The Big Lebowski where Lebowski gets into the argument over “special lady” vs “lady friend”.

This is what happens with pure, uncut, unadulterated Ikes.

It’s all good. I was shitposting last night.

The uproar has less to do with age alone and more to do with the power dynamics and potential for abuse in a situation where a skeevy 50-year-old man is seeking out a “malleable” runaway teen.

I think most of us here know WN was involved with a much older woman at some point and no one really cares.

When are the mods going to ban Trolly and Ikes and Wookie for posting incorrect Covid shit or claiming something is incorrect only for it to be proven correct within a few days or weeks?

When is a Captain going to tell a true story about why Churchill gets banned for his posts in the covid thread? We’re still waiting on the first time.

What did the mods say when you reported the posts?

Make a well-cited case for this happening that explains it to someone who does not read that thread.

He gets banned for posting shit you “experts” don’t agree with but turns out you’re not fucking experts no matter how many 1st year fake doctors you have on your side.

Still not true!

Presumably he does.

Ever wonder why dozens and dozens of regulars are posting elsewhere?

Clue: thread title

You should ban yourself for constantly trying to make everything about in groups and out groups.

Because after 9 months of relentlessly trying to destroy the site you’re finally succeeding?

For those not following. Churchill posted an article to claim that covid existed in Europe in March 2019 based on a paper that he knew had been updated and corrected as we have already discussed that paper. Churchill has a long history of doing bullshit like this. He hijacked discussion with that nonsense, which is a repeated problem for him.

This is a problem for some people, because… fill in your own blanks.

Two is not dozens.

And you’ll find that one of those has cited the other.
