About Moderation (old original thread)

Pretty incredible, and by that, I mean it’s literally and obviously hard to believe, that a guy who got his account anonymized due to his stated objections to how this community was being run, is somehow magically already back and participating using an account he wants us to know is him. It’s almost like we shouldn’t have taken his objections at face value.

Looks like the answer is no.

I mouse hovered over trash can on the 1st post of the Supreme Court thread and it said “you don’t have permission to delete this topic”

I should have checked who the Supreme Court thread OP was before I went moving around posts and such, thanks for checking that.

what-huh

I’m not sure what that has to do with my post - which was about your continuous insistance that UKers are being misogynists because they use a word differently than you do … plus the other nonsense you followed that up with. I’m not the one ensuring any scabs are constantly being picked.

I want to be able to dance on graves. To me, that means I should give inso the same opportunity of I care about fairness.

Lol, you’ve had the same dance party for when right wingers die. You have a dedicated thread for it so cut the horseshit. I wasn’t a fan of inso because he was just your average boring conservative, but a forum that’s currently wrestling with the idea to allow all posters to post can’t handle sabo, inso and jal - three people who have posted on 22 for over a decade and are still in good standing to do so.

As an aside, an Australia commentator used that the ‘g****** b******’ word yesterday for our football. On a nationally broadcast game before millions of people. I smirked when I heard it. Non story from what I can see in the media here. I even looked him up in mentions on twitter out of curiosity and nobody pointed it out. Not to say it isn’t a terrible term to use in other countries. But then that’s the point.

I’m sorry, if you can’t see the difference between school children and kissinger dying that’s a moral problem with yourself.

If we are going to equate the deaths of innocent black kids murdered by police, which inso0 has cheered on vs literal war criminals…give your head a fucking shake.

Saying inso0 has posted on 2p2 for a decade in good standing is hilarious. Genuinely more false words might have never been written here. Whats next “Clarence Thomas has served in the SCOTUS honorably?”

Do you think that the average UKer who drops c-bombs is completely unaware of the “alternative” definition? How about for the average UPer (or former UPer) who fought that battle? And do you think that the UK usage to mean “a disagreeable man” has absolutely nothing to do with that same “alternative” definition? And finally, if you insist on using a term that makes someone uncomfortable, even if it’s because they are from outside your culture, do you think that makes you an asshole?

I mean, I’d rather not go scanning through UK-sourced porn or erotica for specific citations, but I don’t think I’d have any trouble finding c-bombs. Do you think I would?

I think we should just be more permissive of assholes and immorality.

A term for boomboxes that is still commonly used outside the US but kind of disappeared here.

Where you when jal threw a fit because I called a soccer player a spaz?

Oh, right, obviously I should be able to call white people racial slurs, because I actually mean that they’re disagreeable, and you should understand that it has no connection to another definition that I’m not using at all, because obviously I mean strictly, STRICTLY, that this white guy is an asshole, and I want to be a bit more colorful than calling him an asshole.

Aight I’m going to bed. Everyone try to knock it off and play nice.

I seem to remember most people being agreeable to not using the term, but balking at the ridiculous insistence that they accept that they are bigots.

I don’t know - did he? I may/may not agree with his stance - who knows.

I know I commented on the spaz thing at the by saying my fav online radio station, WFMU.org, has a show Music to Spazz By with Dave the Spazz and I understand it’s use in another culture maybe different from mine so I’ll keep donating to them and not get unduly upset by it.

Sure.
