Dispute with mod

……. Yep that response sums it up …I’ll wait.

Your move …do you want this?

calling it out is the only way to shut it down

It's not about 'winning', it's about being right. They're two very different things...

It's about giving feedback, pointing out where things may be going wrong or improvements could be made.

An example I posted before about where the percieved bias may be coming from: a poster calls Biden 'the big fella', gets warned and banned. Another poster calls Musk 'Eloon', no warning, no ban...

I think the reason for this, and I may be wrong, is that one side is more inclined to report every little thing, the other side not so much, so while each 'side' does get hit with warnings, the breadth of posts being reported, and hence actioned, is more diverse on one side of the debate than the other

“It's not about 'winning', it's about being right. They're two very different things...”

Just to be perfectly clear - this has nothing to do with who lost/won / “right” is perceptive - I’m not interested in that either-but it’s everything to do with fair sense of play - I’m watching the Harris speech now- I’d still criticise even this speech - but fair play she’s committed to a peaceful transfer of power - she’s made good points - unlike Trump 4 years ago

While the thread, and forum in general, may have been moderated; at one stage warnings were being handed out 3 days after the fact.

If thats on the Harris v Biden thread there is a detailed mod warning in the OP about derogatory nicknames for the candidates. Musk isnt technically a candidate.

If you chucked out similar at Trump or Vance you would definitely run risk of sanction on that thread.

Also if its buried in a long post it may not be picked up on. A one liner containing it more likely to be spotted.

In soccer theres specific rules about managers nicknames and loaded labels etc. Not sure if that protection would extend to eg someone adjacent. Doesnt de-rail thread to same extent if at all.

I’m not talking about “Nick-names” for candidates btw- I’m talking about abuse of posters providing their views- I’ve no interest in the above argument just so we’re clear

MANY OF THEM !

thats what all these threads are people complaining they didnt get the echo chamber they want and can't cope with any alternatives.

who's looking for an echo chamber? who got the wokism threads shut down? I never really looked at the Trump thread or posted in it, but it seemed to be exclusively populated by anti-Trump posters, the X / Twitter thread the same (anti Musk in this case)…

And as you've been told repeatedly it is actioned and always has been. Like the "pile on" nonsense. You claiming abuse doesnt actuallymake it abuse.

sorry but I’ve had months of this conspiracy nonsense -,I’m not listening to it anymore- you’re obviously deflecting the abuse of posters and your justification for doing so, with this absolute rubbish - I’m done listening to it.

Eh I’ve never said I don’t go into the Harris Trump thread- I’ve been posting there for months - I’ve also never said the thread was “dominated by anti-Trump posters”- I said it was toxic - again you seem to be ascribing me as some sort of “Trump supporter” - not the first time posters have done that to anyone who criticised Harris and you’re just coming across as ridiculous the more you try - posters issue with the thread up to polling day was that no criticism of the Harris campaign was tolerated and the levels of abuse were off the charts -thankfully as we can see now it’s overrun with people giving their views on Harris and her campaign - I suppose they’re all “Trump supporters” too
