e: hey mawarannahr what the gently caress is up with the sausage situation in this country. the most ubiquitous sausage is the sucuk, which is basically beef pepperoni and could be a fine substitute but whenever they need to put any kind of pork product substitute for anything "western" they use that terrible hot dog sausage. like you go to sbarros at the airport and it's like 20 varieties of hotdog meat.

You put this in quotes as if it's a humorous exaggeration but this is like, almost the word exactly how that thread has been openly treated.

I lurked that thread a bit, I got probated at one point because I said something that wasn't absolute blind worship of the US and Joe "I loving Love Genocide" Biden's handling of this even though I met D&D standards and had an article about it/etc. What a shithole thread, but lurking it more after it got really apparent how hosed up the moderation of it is. So of course the end result this typical "is genocide and blowing up kids good or bad this is very complicated issue wow who'd have thought"

dti, dta

Oh, yeah, I had no humorous intentions while writing that. I was threadbanned from us ce thread after explaining exactly that and, further, that the purpose of d&d is to squash discussion. Bunch of loving nazis.

The artillery comparison is galling considering that up to 80% of US fire missions were H&I in Vietnam, and it wasn't uncommon in Iraq and Afghanistan either, if you consider at firing at anyone who approached a culvert or shoulder of a road after dark H&I.

they did have a thread for it but it got so bad and to the point where any source that wasn't the Israeli government was called disinformation. Also they started saying the alleged persecution of the Uyghurs was both worse than what is going on in Israel and that there was more evidence for it. The evidence involved 1) Wikipedia and 2) Things that Anthony Blinken has said. A guy ended up getting banned because he didn't accept Blinken as a source. Basically a bunch of neolibs that refuse to believe their own eyes about an actual genocide going on right now, involving guns and bombs with daily footage of atrocities. All while believing whatever the NYT and motherfucking Blinken say. They gave up intellectually when faced with the contradictions of being dumb loving libs and the thread collapsed in on itself, generated 200 reports a day and then got closed.

Accept the d&d refugees but do not tolerate any of their mods. Destroy on sight.

I apologize, everyone, but this thread has not been meeting D&D standards for informative or productive discussion or debate. We also have not been able to keep up with the number of reports it's generated. Accordingly, I must close it for the time being. Hopefully when reports are cleared and we've worked out a moderation strategy, possibly involving an additional mod and/or IK, the thread will be reopened. In the mean time, it goes without saying, I must ask everyone to refrain from discussing this particular issue in other threads.

it's really unfair and frankly problematic that the tankies could post in that thread just because they had "facts" on their side using the CCP platform tiktok (proven to be 32% disinformation!) even though the smart and good posters had the NYT and the Israeli govt as sources

It's so depressing watching people rely on Wikipedia for information about modern or ongoing conflicts. It can be a good source for relatively non-controversial information, but anything about any war (especially an amerikkkan one) within the last like, two hundred years, is going to be full of disinformation, both overt and subtle. Just because you can maybe trust wikipedia to tell you how photosynthesis or car engines work, that doesn't mean you can trust it to tell you how genocide works.

some people treat Wikipedia like the encyclopedia of Legitimate Knowledge where if something isn't in Wikipedia they will not accept it ever, but if is they'll believe it forever instantly no source needed
