Moderation Questions
The last iteration of the moderation discussion thread was a complete disaster. Numerous attempts to keep it on topic fa
mussolini tho
I am back from the ban but i am not sure i will be around much at this point tbh. Being banned for antisemitism after reporting antisemites for months and defending jews right to exist for months against people who actually side with Hamas actions and requests is kinda absurd, with radical leftist moderation i am not able to say something very simple and not particularly controversial among normal (ie non-leftists people) too many times.
The fact that ideas shared by many people in many western countries (and in some, by the majority) are causes for ban in this forum (like the idea that the radical right is exceptionally less dangerous to jews than the radical left for many reasons, not even comparable, or that western culture is preferable to the culture of many other countries) makes it basically impossible to discuss politics. It's like the core cultural tenets of what makes someone be from the right are unacceptable.
Which i know is the norm on the left, but what's the point of having a politics forum if expressing ideas that represent large chunks of the electorate (and in some countries, the actual majority of voting people) is enough to get banned? and yes that includes the leftist definition of racism, according to it majorities in most countries are racist, so it shouldn't be used to ban in a politics forum.
And being international, most countries in the world have majorities which adamantly profess an inherent cultural superiority of their own country. How can country-suprematism be a bannable offense , being so common in the totality of history of human kind, including the present?
You said “Jews will not replace us” isn’t a dangerous ideology for society

No, no, no they don't. The only way this could be true is if you, for instance, think all the 8-year-old French kids waving a French flag at the Olympics means they are reveling in the cultural superiority of their homeland.
Usually, you types are going on about how the WEF and globalists are trying to turn us into a one-world government. Suddenly, you think they're all based nationalists, seemingly all because you're sad about being temp-banned on 2p2.
Baby.
well the leader of that march is a pretty avowed Zionist
yes because it's the 0.0.1% of people saying that, with no political power at all, and mocked , criticized etc universally. It's like a drunk person in a bar saying he will assassinate the president.
Meanwhile the actual leftist antisemites are in actual power in many places, sometimes very near the top or at the top (like in Ireland and Spain). They have extremely powerful allies in universities. And so on.
And given my previous history talking about jews there was absolutely no way it could be construed as antisemitism coming from me. Absolutely no way at all. Incredible, undefensible reaction to ban me one month for that.
It was an escalating ban after you had already been banned previously numerous times for other posts involving racial bigotry.
The next one will be longer than a month or a perma. That’s how that works.

.
I didn't have France in mind
And the people polled include immigrants and/or people who aren't necessarily from that country culture in full (married with people from other cultures for example and so on).
That means that for people who have 4 grandparents of the same culture they identify with, and no other culture in their family, answer rates will be far higher

Considering a racist expression used by irrelevant people irrelevant (and so among other things, not dangerous) isn't racial bigotry in any way.
Using the racist card to censor anything you dislike that can vaguely be connected with race is not a neutral way to moderate a forum, it's the standard radical leftist way
The other mods wanted you banned for it too, I just got there first.
Maybe one of them can explain it to you. I’m tired.

You could have banned for the other stated reasons, still leftist but at least not a complete mockery of the process as it was when you mentioned antisemitism as well in the banning message, which was yes, actually, deeply offensive. Ban for "western supremacy", which is an insane rule to have (for the reasons stated above), but if you think that's the rules of these forums do that.
But antisemitism, me? really absurd
Again, you posted that “Jews will not replace us” isn’t a dangerous idea for society.
This shouldn’t need an explanation.

The bolded waters down what you actually said quite a bit. You went further than simply arguing that Western culture, or the culture of a specific country in the West, was superior. You said:
^ which was the other post referenced in your ban
It’s not the first time you have posted violent supremacist rhetoric, and it’s not appropriate for this forum.

Ah yes, those extremely powerful professors, the true masters of the universe.
Where are your words for the group that comprises the majority of the "elite", business owners/billionaires, who lean very heavily to the right on economic matters (mixed on social matters, but the former is far more important to this group).
For the record, advocating for a Palestinian state and criticizing the IDF's campaign of terror doesn't make one antisemitic. The "Jews will not replace us!" American reactionaries, on the other hand...

You said,
...most countries in the world have majorities which adamantly profess an inherent cultural superiority of their own country.
This image does not demonstrate the truth of that assertion, just by simple counting, not to mention the softer language used in the survey quoted than in your assertion.
Europe is the continent which is LESS nationalistic lol, check numbers in Asia or Africa for self assessed cultural superiority.
And even in Europe almost everywhere it is a mainstream opinion (30%+). So something which would be absurd to an or censor in a political forum (which is the point we should be discussing).
Stuff like Norway, the purportedly stellar example of Nordic civism, at 58% is very indicative of my point.
And asking if you consider your culture superior isn't a watered down version of what I wrote.
Considering your own culture superior to all others is normal and majoritarian among human beings. And not only is normal: it is fully reasonable, moral and so on.
And you know that but as every leftist you feel the need to deny objective reality for your narrative.
Already tired of being back tbh, time wasted with bad faith arguments

Yes so what's the idea, that it's a bannable offense to prefer the way geopolitics has been played during pax americana? That in this forum agreeing with CIA topping leaders, with wars used as punishment for misbehaving countries and so on, what the USA did regularly, is a bannable offense? We did have decades of a world order predicated on western supremacy and both major American parties building that order and enforcing it, occasionally with exceptional violence.
And it's a bannable offense in this forum to claim that was a lot better than a fragmented multipolar world order with local geographical hegemony calling the shots.
Extreme violence is the norm in geopolitics, and if it isn't done by the west, it's done by others, and being accused of "violent rethoric" for basically not being a complete non -interventionist pacifist is again kind of absurd.
I have been banned for having an opinion which was ultramajoritarian in the USA after 9 11 basically. Just incredible.

If you want to defend your posts, that's up to you. My point was that you should defend what you actually said, not a watered down version of what you said.
You’re not going to win the argument to make [strike]white[/strike] “western” supremacy a viable debate point for this forum.
Accept it or leave.

Dude, i think you to just need to xhill out a bit.
This place is best suited to hang out and argue over differences of opinion over politcal stuff - not to xhange anyones mind or to take offense from random takes from others. This place is for fun
The crossed white and the scary quote around western, is really what this is about.
Full woke radical leftist ideology became a forum rule by your own fiat to the point that it's bannable to take the position that American and western foreign policy can and should be very violent.
Obama, the first black president, extra judicially assassinated hundreds of people (enemies of the west) with targeted drone attacks, including at least an American citizen, and I cant say that was a very good thing and we should do it a lot more often? Israel is assassinating enemies with precision strikes, and that's very good and we should all do that much more often, the hell has white to do with this?
How can being in favor of, and asking to scale more, the actual policies of a recent president, or a current government of a western ally, be a bannable offense, or. Forbidden topic?

It seems that you are succeeding in convincing exactly zero mods here, so your options at this point are to play by the rules or not post here (either voluntarily or otherwise).
