Almost makes me hope the place does survive just to see what the next weird-ass evolution of Stunning-And-Brave(tm) over there will look like as they all try to out-Special each other. I'm waiting for one of them to "come out" as an exercise bike or something.

Here's something that is interesting to me (although I don't care enough to actually dig in and confirm it): It seems that the moderating system we were so familiar with in the 10-15 years ago is totally out the window. It used to be straightforward and transparent: If you broke a rule, you got a "friendly" warning. If you continued to misbehave, you got a formal warning. Over time formal warnings would fall off. If you managed to rack up 5 warnings, you got a 1 day ban. Then a week. Then a month. Then 6 months. There might be discussion in the Help Desk about whether the moderator had acted properly or the action was unwarranted. And if it was unwarranted it might be reversed. A permaban was almost unheard of.

Now there's no warnings and no discussions. People just get disappeared for Thought Crimes.

I'm rereading "The Great Shark Hunt," a collection of Hunter S. Thompson's articles. During the section on politics, Nixon, and Watergate, he quotes a passage: "When democracy granted democratic methods to us in times of opposition, this was bount to happen in a democratic system. However, we National Socialists never asserted that we repesented a democratic point of view, but we have declared openly that we used the democratic methods only in order to gain power and that, after assuming the power, we would deny to our adversaries without any consideration the means which were granted to us in times of our opposition." -Josef Goebbels.

I think I can see at least a partial reason they discontinued doing that. Their idea was that getting "friendlies" then "formals" and then bans of growing length should've caused changes in a posters behavior. And when that often did not happen they basically said "the hell with it" an dispensed with the various steps.

I'll admit that I almost never changed my behavior due to warnings and bans. The lone exception being I stopped threatening people with physical violence. Of course I'll admit I never understood why they would get worked up over those kinds of threats anyway as everyone who was the object of them insisted they weren't afraid of me in the least. No fear, no threat.

^^I'll slap you with a brick made of ground-up eel flesh bound together with applesauce that's gone off! :pissed:

(The trick to threatening people online, see, is to make the "threat" so cartoonishly absurd that no reasonable person could possibly take it seriously. The problem is that Wordforge hasn't been run by even remotely reasonable persons in a very, very long time...)

SPLC is itself a hate group. That said, some of what Storm is reputed to have said is pretty fucking repugnant. That's still not a crime yet.

I blame the so-called "anti-" racists.

2000: "I'm not a racist."

2010: "I'm not a racist, buuuuuuut..."

2020: "I didn't used to be a racist..."

2030: "Fuck outta my face, cupcakeer, sick of your shit."

Think it isn't already headed there? Stay tuned...

Re-reading that, I suppose I may have thought around a corner and thus my meaning may have been obscured. I mean that "anti-racism" -- which is in practice just a really shabby and transparent-ass euphemism for anti-white racism -- is likely to drive whites to become racists who would not have otherwise.

It used to be I wouldn't even tell a racist joke. Thought the whole thing was stupid. I still think that, because it is stupid, it's another form of collectivism, and it's collectivism that hasn't even got anything to do with a voluntary group affiliation. But the more I was told that all white people are racist, the more I felt like, well, fuck it. I'm racist whether I'm racist or not; might as well be racist, then.

The other half of that, the idea that only white people are racist, elicits the opposite reaction because the idea that only white people can be racist is itself racist and therefore fucking absurd. All human beings display a preference for other human beings that resemble them or that share a group affiliation with them, and against human beings that don't. To say that non-whites are incapable of racism is to suggest that non-whites aren't human.

Consequent to that last point: if it's "okay" to be racist against whites (because we won't call that racism) and if all whites are racist anyway (the only escape clause to that being that they join in being racist against whites)...

Then fuck it. I'll be racist, then. But not against my own kind. If the gloves are off, and it seems they are, and I'm in the fight whether I want to be or not, then fine. But there's only two sides a guy can choose from in this fight: His own people's side, or suicide.

Honestly, if you say all X are racist and attack them for things that they have no control over, such as their ethnicity, they you do encourage people to group together by persecuted group (like ethnicity). I don’t think that is a good thing, I think identitarianism leads no where good, but the radical left (which is now the main stream left) is so racist and so identitarian I am beginning to think no other outcome is possible. Just look at CHAZ/CHOP where they reintroduced racial segregation. That is a horrible thing which shall not end well.

But the extreme left, the revolutionary communist left, wants that conflict because they hope to start a race war hoping that leads to their beloved communist revolution. Sadly, that is the idiocy of morons.

Well, and they like to appropriate and redefine words in order to deceive others about what it is they stand for. "Liberals" are amongst the most notably illiberal people you can find. So they switched it up to "progressives", but reintroducing segregation isn't progress. "Antifa" aren't anti-fascist; you can't be anti- fascist while employing fascist tactics to achieve a fascist objective.

They've similarly appropriated and redefined the word "racism" to mean, rather than a phenomenon wherein a person judges others according primarily or exclusively to the race of those being judged, then makes decisions based on that judgment -- the original definition of racism -- now "racism" has all this other nonsensical "systemic" or "institutional" garbage slathered all over it. But even the leftist redefinition of racism doesn't mean what they want it to, because racial-quota-based discrimination that favors some people over others based on their race is institutionalized racism, and it exclusively favors "people of color" (a phrase which is basically identical to "colored people", so I have no idea why they chose it") over whites. They should have just saved time and gone right to redefine "racism" to mean, simply, "walking around having been born white."

And now the Rubicon has been crossed. It is, no shit, now "glorifying white supremacy" to be patriotic.

Now, I know, and I think we all know, what the real point of all this clown world shit is: to manipulate Americans into flat-out refusing to defend this country while the Marxists are busily tearing it down.

Nope. Opposite reaction. Fucking backfire, Boris. I'm a "white supremacist" for being patriotic? Okay! I'm a white supremacist, then. Full on, flat out, balls to the fuckin' wall, kid, and you only think you know what that means. You're about to get fucking educated, though. Get ready to see more Confederate flags, hear the word "cupcakeer" spoken by white people unironically, and gods know what else, because the neo-Bolsheviks have pushed the manipulation too fucking far now and it's about to snap.

Timcast IRL’s cohost simply tweeted “I love America and I am proud to be an American.” Only to immediately get called a Nazi because only Nazis love America? That is where we are now.

Vote accordingly.

And we're shaping up for another psychotic break with this story that Trump is behind in the polls and everything else the media is pushing. Oh, Trump *could* lose. But I don't think he will. And the magical world where no one needs guns because the police will protect us but the police are evil and have been disbanded, with $15 an hour for anyone who wants a job and $2,000 a month for everyone, free college, free healthcare and everything else not materializing will be a cruel blow to already fragile brains.

You are so full of shit. A white supremacist is about the most unpatriotic thing an American could be. Glad to see you finally owning it though.

Good. Now go tell that to the fruit loop fuckin' kooks in the mainstream media, who want to redefine the two terms to be the same thing.

While you're at it, stop just skimming posts like a lazy fuck and read every word in them. Then you won't look like a damn clown when you post a reply.
