Watched one about the current state of American womanhood get locked this morning simply cos one of the mods is a woman and couldnt stand to read the truth.... Its what happens when normally good people are given totalitarian powers, they become little tin gods... Ask anyone in the Gov....

Absolute power corrupts absolutely....



Oh.. and INB4!!! LOL

For me it was last night that it was locked. It was an obvious bait and hate thread. There were reports about it and complaints in the thread. Why are we not supposed to react to complaints?

I didnt see that at all... It seemed like a legitimate discussion to me. Shrugs...

Did you check to see if these complaints came from special interest groups? Such as those who have a vested interest in not discussing it, or those who are offended by it because they have lost the ability to look reality dead on, both good and bad?

I would say if the bulk of them came from such a group then the complaints would be less credible, ya know?

I know that had the discussion been about MEN, be it THEIR loss of morality (no women are far from the only ones), or about how stupid they are, or how bad in bed, how they are all loosers, bad fathers, etc, etc, etc, it would have been cheered on by at least as many... One more symptom of a failing society that has been LED to be preoccupied with fighting each other instead of the true enemy.

I am just curious I know holocaust denial is illegal in many European countries.Are there other forms of speech there that is also illegal.In my opinion the real purpose of these hate speech laws is to stifle dissent.That being said I think this forum is great and I really do not see to much censorship going on here.No matter which side of an issue a person is on when you are reduced to name calling you have lost the argument.

I believe from what I read about the law is that it covers general hate speech directed towards any group that has traditionally had it focused on them, as well. I could be wrong about my interpretation, but that is what I got from it. Personally, I hate laws that try to stifle. There's too many on the books atm. Laws telling you how to talk or what you need to buy that threaten fine or imprisonment suck big time. I've read that there is talks going on trying to stop the hate speech laws.

that sort of bashing thread has been deleted before.

I don't ask folks special interest groups, so don't have that info.

ONe of the complaints in thread was via Guest, others were registered members via report.

You delete threads that merely make Jews look bad - simply by what theyre saying and doing. That's going beyond just being opposed to 'hate'. You're advocating for them.

You also deleted a thread that contained a vid of a Jew pushing multiculturalism on Europe. I pointed out that this was genocide and the thread was deleted. By doing so, you're advocating genocide.

There is a HUGE difference between "bashing" and the observation of a current sociological trend. Commenting on what IS, whether that be perceived as right or wrong, should never be construed as bashing... Is it bashing to call the grass green? The sky (hazy) blue? What the grass and sky dont LIKE those terms? Did anyone ask them? What if some people simply dont want to face the reality of color??? Is it bashing then? At what POINT does truth become taboo?

And try to remember that freedom speech ends for ALL the second it ends for SOME.

On a site dedicated to searching for the truth, thats a death blow...

If censorship continues to tighten here, this place will lose more and more good posters and eventually evolve into a place simliar to the telescope forum.
