I barely can comphrend how dumb you have to be to not understand Killing in the Name Of is a literal ACAB / gently caress the police anthem. There's absolutely nothing subtle about it, it's calling the police literal KKK over and over again explicity

And it is loving pathetic Killing in the Name Of is even more relavent in 2020 than it ever was

Can we not use the Proud Boy's "gently caress around and find out" motto? I understand they didn't coin the term, but...

FAFO is associated with stuff like Gritty and left wing. It's not a Proud Boys meme or their motto.

My experience and Google disagree with that statement.

Dunno what you are googling but it was very distinctly first in use by leftists before Proud Boys - in the flag shown below in fact.

We're not debating the history of the term... the Proud Boys use it as their motto and it's distasteful.


They might be trying to co-opt it but as far as I am aware they have not succeeded and it remains firmly and overwhelmingly as a leftist motto. Just because one rando on Twitter says it is doesnt make it so.

Just as a bit of idea we're starting to experiment with is a Community Showcase - show off for a week (? maybe longer?) every now and then a thread that shows off just how good some of the projects and threads that we have in AI.

This week - The Spyder's tales and photodumps of rotary insanity

MrChips posted:

To add to this, all three of us discussed at length what actions we were going to take with respect to STR and Rhyno; this was not a decision that was just made in a vacuum by any one of us by any means. It was doubly difficult in that in spite of their issues, both posters are fundamentally likeable people and are held generally in high regards by our community as a whole. But, there comes a time when they need to take a break from posting and get straightened out; we on the mod team will welcome them both back whole-heartedly once they are in a better place, and we hope all of you will too.

Also to add tot his, the Rhyno situation went on for a few months and was quite stressful to deal with, being that the community has been supportive of him and wanted to see him succeed. So do I but the forums were becoming an unhealthy place and as pointed out, suicidal posting is very problematic.

quote:

. Long term, allowing discussion of suicidal ideation can have an effect on other users and corresponds with a trend of increasing suicide attempts among a user base. Following the guidelines given to the mods, Rhyno should have been permabanned. We discussed the option taken with the admins with the hope that Rhyno will deal with his poo poo and come back. As to that, we'll see.

^^^ this was very much a major factor

I have more to say about STR but I wish to clear it with him first as it was said in private.

Firstly - a huge thank you for Elmnt80 who has been AI mod for over three years and has been as good a co-mod as you could wish for. While AI is fairly relaxed and easy to mod, sometimes when there are issues it's been great to be able to talk and to come to what we hope will be the right decision. It's also been great to have a bit of chaos and silliness thrown about - also if one of needs to walk away for a bit, someone is always here. I commendElmnt80 for his work and wish him well

That said, I'd like to officially welcome AI's new moderator Somewhat Heroic. Please join me in Welcome or commiserations as you see fit :)

Quick note -

There has been a few reports lately about posts that suck for $Reasons that have been edited before mods saw the original.

Firstly, thanks for the report and please keep reporting lovely posts. This is in part to explain why a lovely post hasn't been hit, it was edited before mods saw it

Second, thank you to posters for reviewing their own posts and editing out lovely bits when they realize it was poo poo.
