the problem nobody wants to talk about in that sad thread is that our moderators and admins are tremendously stubborn idiots and will not back down on it if they make a bad call

mawarannahr maybe don't pre-emptively defend al-saqr doing a hosed up thing you imagined. do you not realize how this primes people to believe al-saqr would do this or already has? he has a big enough target on him. this is a very lovely thing to do.

Yeah I didn't want to say it there considering what happened last time Al-Saqr got brought up in SAD. But, well, considering that, maybe a different example would have been better.

remember how we argued for years against the word filter because mods are incapable of understanding context? tankbuster is still probed because mods are incapable of understanding context

surely this time it will be different

maybe. it is sincerely what I had in mind because it's something I worry might happen. a lot of people wanted him banned for posting something that was also against the rules. i think forgiveness is a virtue and zero tolerance rules can be stupid.


totally different trivial example, there can be contexts where posting the Lenin mausoleum or holy relics would not be out of place and should not merit a permaban.

i figured just... you gotta consider what that does when you post it in SAD. it doesn't matter how correct your example is or what you personally think there. you need to post defensively or at least with a good sense of how other people are going to interpret you or you end up posting some schweinhund poo poo

nah people are just saying if you post a tweet and later on someone hidden under show all replies posts gore later, you should be permabanned too. they are most likely ex politics posters litigating their general grudge against politics posters

nah, people are just arguing about what happens if someone scrolls in the comments of a tweet you link and finds something gross now.

people embedding a tweet-reply and forgetting that it also embeds the thing it is replying to is a typical problem, but that's not what sad is discussing now, it's just comments.

anyways, i told you i would be destroying tweet embeds soon, i think it's close now. i've been waiting on this for some time.

lmfao ok that's even better. quotelinking another SA thread is the same scenario. imagine someone suggesting you are responsible for any comments in a thread you quote link from

i mean the quickest way to stop all gore posting would be to simply ban posting twitter links and embeds. ive had to stop using twitter lately because some mutual will retweet to some gore before i can mute them, or just the autoplaying gore videos under every news story
