    Lol - you and the other person are so upset it is hilarious! :D But you staunchly believe in free speech. ;) Except you like to shout down the free speech you disagree with :D

    Free speech is not unlimited or absolute (the fact that there is an exception in relation to violence/harm in the first place illustrates this, therefore it is not free) - why do you and the other person steadfastly refuse to admit this? I have only exercised my free speech by saying it is not unreasonable to criticise unprovoked insults and that they're hardly worthy of defending as "free speech" but you keep on attacking me personally and twisting what I say, you big free speech fan you! ;):D
    Jesus, you're denser than a block of cheese. I honestly can't follow your train of thought because it's so transcendentally stupid. I'm not upset at all, I'm actually very entertained by your tenuous grasp on semantics and basic logic. Free speech doesn't begin where your objections end, that's all I can really say.....

    Wow that is just perfect. I mean I knew he was an opportunistic hypocrite as soon as he hitched his wagon to the Gamergate ****wagon after spending the earlier part of his 'career' castigating gamers, but that's a different level.
    That quite apt actually since Anita Sarkessian herself hates computer games in the first place.

    Riiiiiiiiiight. Any other totally unrelated or random thoughts you feel the need to express? Maybe something on Chris Evans.

    Anita Sarkeesian is "totally unrelated" to GamerGate?
    Care to rephrase that? As in, change it completely so it makes an ounce of sense?

    Tread carefully, you don't wanna get a warning like me:D Remember, on boards you have to "BE CIVIL" at all times.....

    You're doing it wrong. Try "people who don't agree are denser than cheese". You're not insulting anybody then, right?

    Hahaha Jesus, I can't even begin..... It's like tourette's isn't it? Someone mentions Milo being a hypocrite, the fact that he changes his views to suit whatever group he's trying to sell himself to and the outbursts just come. "YEAH WELL THERE'S THIS WOMAN AND SHE'S A TWAT!"

    Hey TSMGUY, what's the odds this one is mysteriously deemed not abusive?

    Your card took just SEVEN minutes to arrive! There'll probably be some variation of "mods are volunteers very busy etc" if they're questioned about why other abuse gets ignored.

    I'm sure I'll live. The funny thing is I made it clear it was my last comment on the thread and that's when I get a warning:confused:

    She is basically trying to deflect away from the fact the movie sucked balls and everyone knows it. You can only play on the feminist card for so long until most movie goers have went and saw it and guess what, it sucks donkey dick. Time she accepted it.

    the trailer is the most disliked movie trailer on all of youtube. Says a lot....

    I didn't mind the movie so much, humour just seemed immature to me, far more than the original was. I think for that reason any young kids seeing it would most like enjoy it maybe a little more. The annoying stuff would just (hopefully at least) go over their heads, like them all shooting the ghost in the balls and making a joke about hitting him there. Then we have images like this from the premiere with Leslie suggestively standing on his balls and it's all a bit, well... fashionable pandering really.

    Beta? Jesus feckin' Christ. Why can't people just say something straight instead of inventing trendy new words?

    The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.

    Leviticus 19:34

    Only alpha males understand;)

    And it should be said in Paul Feig's defense, he did some great work on The US Office

    I wasn't going to go it as I thought the original reviews early on would destroy it. Then I see its got decent reviews and so went and watched it. And once I did I figured out what exactly was going on. Reviewers playing it safe solely down to the feminist brigade.

    No serious movie goer will have rated that movie above a 3 out of 10. It was utterly dreadful. One of the worst films I have seen.

    I didn't know Archer was a mod:eek:

    Nobody plays... sure... WTF is this then? A card for calling someone "dense as cheese" and nothing for saying somebody has a mental illness?
    You know what, I'll skip your Feedback offer... I've looked through it and any mention of bias gets locked in seconds.
    Hey, it's your site (just like Twitter) but you'll be called on your bias all the same.

    You have Tourette's.

    It was a reference, he's fine.

    You, on the other hand, are just looking for irrelevant arguments. Don't post in this thread again please.

    Hang on, we have clear evidence that saying somebody has Tourette's is OK here! I reported a post saying that and it's still there!
    Surely moderation policy doesn't depend on WHO posts something but on whether it's ABUSE or not? That'd be, ya know, biased n stuff? Yeah?
