General CA trolls - it's embarrassing

Boards.ie isn't CGI_Liva_soprano.ie

Feck off and create your own forum. Larp somewhere else.

To be honest I cant think of a Left wing equivalent of the Wokeism of the day thread and im not really sure what it would be even called. I think the right wingers may be more prolific in posting and in starting threads in current affairs and thanking each others posts but I think their influence may be overstated so why get upset. modern Ireland would be considered fairly left wing compared to America where the wokeisam debate originates from. I dont think current affairs/politics/after hours is full of bigotry/racism/transphobia.

There's one about how all the dangers in the world are coming from the right. Pretty lengthy thread.

On the whole things are pretty evenly balanced although the site generally tends to be less tolerant of more extreme right wing opinions but extreme left wing opinions are routinely tolerated which makes the entire premise of this thread peculiar.

Should be a simple task for someone to link to one of these hate filled posts then.

I read several hundred+ posts per day if not more ,and I don't agree i think these claims along with previous claims made are false,we get these threads time and time again and guess what the common denominator is ,

Over run with far right, variophobic posts and threads,to claims the majority of posts or posters are all of the above but nobody ever produces evidence to back up their claims,

And my experience in certain threads various claims are made against posters but yet thread bans get issued not for abuses or whatever phobics stance you or other claim ,but for arguments and ignoring a mod instruction ,not for racism, homophobia, Islamophobia ,russophobia,

But yet time and time again feedback rampant this going on , rampant that going on we demand the admins and board's staff get involved and shut the discussion down,

What evidence is produced,

Nothing.

It's completely dishonest and attempting to silence anyone but a small cohort of posters who claim pro this and pro that,

I'm going to close my account and .......

There all still here making the comments over and over boards is full of far right pick your cause posters,

But yet they stay here complaining about it ,if it's things are that bad why are the all still here ,

???

CA used to be a place where the levels of decent discussion made it a decent place to go in spite of the trolling.

Now the balance has shifted so much it's no longw worth visiting.

The issue is what it has always been as long as I've been on boards - a baffling and pointless amount of leeway given to posters whose only goal is to be the biggest dick they can for as long as they can.

As I've said before, for a website whose abiding motto is 'Don't be a dick', Boards tolerates an awful lot of dickishness.

I agree with the OP and CGI.

The amount of general hate and personal attacks that goes unchecked these days is unprecedented. Reports are ignored for the most part, and randomly reasonable people are banned for bizarrely trivial reasons. The assumption has to be that it all had the tacit approval of boards. Some of the worst offenders post for a very long time before eventually being banned.

Too many complaining about the same thing for it not to be widespread experience.

There's no point posting in many forums because there's the same handful of posters shutting down any counter discussion.

The lines between CA and After Hours are very blurred these days. CA is much closer to AH than it's ever been.
