This xDaunt vs the world argument goes on for way too long when xDaunt clearly lays out his argument on page like xx58 and kwark keeps quibbling with him about the definition of "disproportionately". The unfortunate reality is that most of the posters in that thread don't have the capacity to do this. It's a really sad state of affairs. I'm starting to wonder why I post in there because all of the liberal posters who actually could do it are either gone or rarely post anymore. | ||

My rule is, if the discussion feels poisonous I leave. If they don't let it go then I tell them to fuck off. I'm not willing to have a discussion that is entirely voluntary with a hostile opposition, because there's nothing to be proven here. I'm here because I'm interested enough in the issues to read about and discuss them, and when I am not, I leave. | ||

User was banned for this post. Could I ask who did this? Surely this was a mocking post, or was that the reason? | ||

Race has consistently proven to be a terrible topic for productive discussion in the US politics thread. | ||

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/general/383301-us-politics-mega-thread?page=3400#67988 that suggests that perhaps if you're calling black people animals, whether you're going GGTemplar and calling them monkeys or going full xDaunt "BLM are vermin" that's a bit too far. Also what the fuck is going on. | ||

seriously though, at least some warnings are needed; and I reckon there'll be a ban or two once the mods have reviewed the cases. | ||
