[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD
Posting guidelines for Politics and Soci...
These are our baselines. We're not reinventing the wheel here. If you aren't sure if something is acceptable to post, its better to ask first. If you think someone is posting something that violates the above guidelines, please report it or PM me rather than responding in kind.
To reiterate some of the points:
1. No personal attacks. This is a broad instruction, but, in general, we want to focus on attacking an argument rather than the poster making it. It is fine to say a post is antisemitic; it is not okay to call someone an antisemite over and over. If you believe someone is making antisemitic posts, report them or PM me. The same goes for calling people "baby killers" and "genocide lovers". You are allowed to argue that an action supports genocide or that the consequences of certain policies results in the death of children, but we are no longer going to be speaking to one another's intentions. It is not productive to the conversation and doesn't further any debate.
2. Racist posts and other bigoted statements that target a particular group or individuals of such groups with derogatory comments are not allowed. This should not need further explanation.
3. Graphic Images need to be in spoilers with a trigger warning.
4. Wishing Harm on other posters will result in an immediate timeout.
5. Genocidal statements such as "Kill 'em all" etc, are no longer permissible in the thread.
If anyone has any questions about the above, please PM me. I don't want a discussion about the rules to derail the content of this thread. If anything needs clarifying, I will do that in this thread.

Dunyain is aware my own family is Jewish. He’s also a multiple times previously banned poster, so if anyone has any actual questions regarding the moderation of this thread, I’m going to suggest you refer to me rather than “Dunyain”.
So why does he get such a long leash to lie about posters and evade permabans here?
So thirsty for bans. You know if everyone you wanted banned got banned there wouldn't be any posting in this thread at all.
I mean you told me to **** off and so far as I can tell I didn’t report you and you didn’t get banned
So….cry more?
It makes sense for the most part which team each person has chosen to support. I'd estimate that 50% of pro Israeli folks are Jewish. The other 50% are white Conservatives. I have no data to support this but I think I'm pretty close to right. I think there are a few liberal Jews who are anti Israel. I have no idea why. Maybe we can do a poll and figure out what everybody is and figure this thing out. I originally came to this forum as a completely objective observer. I find it comical that people will only say bad things about one side but not the other. That's when you know who's who. The reality is that both sides are doing what they think is in their best interest. History has shown that violence is clearly not the way.

It's good that you didn't report him. I can't think of anything more beta and pathetic than a grown man reporting another grown man. Also, I think everyone deserves a second chance. Too many people in here are way overly emotional. When they calm down they are alright.

I think no regular poster itt is Muslim, maybe one person max.
I'm Jewish. I think Boids is. CN has Jewish family, but not sure whether she is Jewish herself. Rafiki and Mets are Jewish, but no longer here. I assume the new Israeli guy is Jewish. I may have missed one or two, but maybe not.

on this forum? in real life? 50% of what? on what terms? from what I can remember something like 80% of Jews worldwide support Israel in this "war" (its not really a war but whatever). far more non-Jews support it by count. but much less than 50% of the world.
I think there are a few liberal Jews who are anti Israel.
I doubt there are many. Western liberals and liberal Jews alike are extremely supportive of Israel and the war.
Thats a complete lie.
those are all Hamas operatives, that were captured near the hospital, not in it.
one of the IDF squadrons that fought there was mine when I was in Regular service and I personally know most officers there.
Why are these people never given jumpsuits before the pics? Stripping them is standard but why does the IDF keep taking pics of them and posting them after? Surely they realize the optics in play here.
How about we all go back to posting about content ♥
Cuz I don’t blindly ignore people unless theyve demonstrated themselves to be a useless troll or a belligerent imbecile and I’m not enough of a snowflake to think being told to **** off is reason enough to throw a fit
I’m sorry you’re mad you can’t say that to others though
This is the Israel/Palestine thread, not the petty personal beefs and shitting on the mod thread. Quit it!
Should I make a petty personal beefs thread? Hmm.

First, I mean I've told you to **** off and I expect you to **** off.
Second, no one has yet told me I can't tell people to **** off. What I said was I can't call people dumb mother****ers. Can you read?
Third, you're not sorry.
Fourth, I'm not mad.
CN,
Iran has threatened the USA with a "crushing response" to the attacks from Israel.
How's that for content?
You sound mad
MB,
I’m Iranian
How’s that for a ‘crushing response’?
How about a crybaby thread where the whiners and crybabies could go and have their daily tantrum.
I mean… I feel like **** offs can be okay if used in moderation, but you guys are going past that so..
Please stop?
