There are simple questions that show how difficult this is, such as the question of whether Republicans should be allowed to post at all, considering that the party itself has bigoted beliefs baked into its mandate. Yet that would probably be viewed as extreme for a comedy forum.

This is the first time I've been both on and aware of any serious drama saga going on, but I am also trying to finish up a project. This is really difficult for me, guys. Knit a row, see what new explosions are happening in QCS, knit another row, repeat.

Yet that would probably be viewed as extreme for a comedy forum. They can post if they manage to not be bigots. Hell bigots can even post if they can keep it to themselves. Weirdly republicans usually are bigots and bigots love telling everyone how bigoted they are.

All conservative posters have to do is not treat sexual minorities like second or third class citizens or push debunked psuedo-science about how both groups are deviants. Stop pretending this is more complicated than it is.

If it's bad it's bad and we have no obligation to pretend it's not bad just because a major political party has embraced it

FAU posted:Another fun thing about spending too much time online: managing to have earth's most pointless, embarrassing, and self-inflicted mental health episode on a dying internet forum. At the risk of revealing myself to have embarrassingly far too much time on my hands, I actually did real all of the posts in the QCS threads since yesterday, and conclude exactly what I concluded three years ago: a forum that harbors and encourages posters to mine the larger community to mock them is bad for the community as a whole. I greatly appreciate the work you did as an admin and it's actually very impressive how long you were able to put up with the bullshit. I hope you're not too hard on yourself.

One More Fat Nerd posted:I thought troon literally came from, and was popularized by, the old E/N trans support threads. Like it wasnt intended as a slur, just a portmanteau of trans and goon. Could be wrong. Could have been. It was around before I was. I know FYAD was using it derogatorily for awhile, and kiwifarms et al. have as well. I still do a double take seeing it used as some legit slur online like uh yes i am a trans goon actually nice burn??

Pick posted:Reading comprehension is poor on earth planet. Yeah, that’ll teach those assholes who dared to try to engage with your argument. Big mistake, I guess. Ugly In The Morning posted:I've always liked that the SA forums rules have what's basically a "because gently caress you, that's why" clause. That clause is so excellent, and so important. Obviously it requires a half-decent moderating staff with two brain cells to rub together, but it’s so handy, especially now that online bigots have started leaning hard into rules lawyering and loopholes. There’s a lot of people in QCS saying that it’s not fair to ban FYAD people for bigotry because it wasn’t against the rules until now, and I can think of no better evidence that FYAD has fallen from grace than the presence of people who claim to be sticklers for the rules of an internet forum.

Historically, whenever there's been a 5-10+ user purge/change like this to root out bad/toxic behavior, hasn't it always improved the forums in general as a whole? The rejected storm off to other sites and rally around each other to complain about it but generally leave SA alone after that. Sure ADTRW has to be purged every few years but once those people are out it takes a while for that behavior to start creeping back up before its shut down again only now people are much more aware of where to draw the line. Getting rid of homegrown, banning the filesharing, purging helldump, making gamergate bannable, are all positive things that if they were still around would certainly be toxic cesspools. I'd love for a D&D, CSPAM culling of all the pro-fascist tankies but I guess that's a lot more complicated because they don't outright deny genocide and the Holocaust they just dance around the issue in a pseudo-intellectual way using 200 words when 20 would suffice.
