That feedback thread is a wild ride. :munch:

I legitimately feel bad for Koos, even if I think he's digging himself into a really deep hole trying to defend a completely untenable modding stance that you have to assume good faith from known bad faith posters using known dogwhistles for bigotry. There's literally no way to actually make that subforum happy though and volunteering to moderate D&D is just volunteering to get chewed up and spit out while making a few dozen posting enemies along the way. Hope Koos passes the torch soon so they can actually spend time on something they enjoy.

Isn't this exactly what the D&D types wanted for their subforum, what exactly is the issue? Just stop reading that subforum lmao.

it's this on their personal balance scale with moderating positions they don't like. Some pretend, or even earnestly think they want the former, while also wanting the latter, even though the latter means allowing bigotry veiled as the former.

When it comes to explicit bigotry, like the bigotry that was show in the trans athlete thread by certain posters, it's too far. When it comes to veiled transphobia, ableism, racism and etc in misrepresented studies and statistics, "lived experiences" and pro-police rhetoric then that's fine. When it comes to moderating positions by playing to the refs about good or bad faith, looking at everything in the context of understanding talking points or right-wing media, or supporting what is considered the best possible that is also fine.

when 2019 campaign trail biden said "let's start a real physical revolution" there are grammar redundancies in real and physical, and I thought he was a worldly scholar that was eminently qualified to handle the rigors and intricacy of a presidential term? embarrassing sir, a stain on your presidency

it’s hilarious that trump has the best hand for 2024 and all it took was losing 2020. now the democrats all hate each other because they can’t accomplish anything and Biden is about to take the blame for 2008 part deux

republicans intentionally cheated to get biden the win so they could both hilariously clown trump but also set up a slam dunk fascism victory in 24
