Well I didn't mod anything really. Not yet. You know the rules of that particular part of the section. You can name call it however you like but the rules are the rules and if I give you special exception to break them then everyone has to be able to break them.

Use data for statements like that or don't make those statements in that part of the section. Perspectives or Round Table.

You are engaging in softcore suppression and using pedantry as an excuse.

Last I checked those rules don't preclude commentary.

Or y'know just because a bunch of maniacs who got Molly coddled for years by Island and a literal CCP agent call you out doesn't mean they're right

I need you to understand something very simple.
What evidence do people who call men sexist use? Hm? They say, oh it's easily observable. Just look around.
If I don't allow that reasoning from them, who do you think you are that I should allow it specifically from you? If I'm missing some posts that ARE doing that I apologize, show them to me and I will dole out the appropriate punishments.
Otherwise, like ES and Shin are doing, I expect you to respect the fact that you must back up your claims in the news section. Speaking of those two, you'll notice I've given them no such warning or anything as of late. They have posted as per the rules and have made their points to be argued.
What you posted is valueless, it will JUST make people flip shit. I'm okay with them flipping shit but only if the argument you're making is debatable.

Quite frankly I've been as gentle as possible, I've asked you kindly, more than once to please refrain from making sweeping generalizations with no evidence. What you see is not permissible evidence.

Given your past treatment in the FV cafe I have been especially careful to show you that I don't want to censor, delete, or ban anyone but we must have some form of order and I have laid out that order in the rules in the stick thread called News Guidelines.

Furthermore there are sections for opinions of all kinds within that very news section as subsections.

So I ask you, what exactly do you propose I do when you do exactly what the rules tell you not to do? Should I ignore it specifically for you?

I need you to understand something very simple: your comparisons are entirely a set of false analogies. Because one side has no legitimate standing and the other has about 90 years of documentation alleging Federal institutions are renegade and illegitimate.

One relies on a grotesque appeal to emotions at the expense of the party irs claiming to defend to gain traction, the other can only be suppressed by the fearful using the same appeals to emotion to justify it.

So your question to me merits a simple answer.

"I haven't seen you come down against MOP for being a psychopath..but you come down on me. As if the meaningless gray user badge they handed me as a demeaning consolation prize or whatever other reasoning gives you a pretext to hold me to a higher standard that's really a double standard."

Or that is to say we can have this conversation when you're prepared to actually have it.

In the interim, I've zero interest in playing that game and so seldom post in the main news section and will continue to do that.

You patronized me the last time you disagreed with me too, it'd be nice if you could stow your ego for a little while. I'm ready anytime to have this conversation. Don't try to pass it off like I'm the one that's not prepared.

At the end of the day you broke a written rule. You can't evade that. Whether you agree or not is not of importance because it's clean cut. I took no action this time and indeed I took no actions any of those times other than to ask nicely. We have past that point now, if you think your post will cause an outrage or you're going to make a generalization, then post evidence or don't post it there.

Don't develop this dumb complex that I'm against you and your friends either, your friends have posted without intervention due to me not finding anything in need of addressing. I would ask that you follow their lead because they seem to know how to build an argument rather than assert that they are correct with nothing to back it up.

Wait if I'm the one patronizing you to pad my own ego why are you fabricating something about me claiming you targeted anyone I'm friends with?

That post comes off like a really shifty way to dodge my own points.

And lying about me to my face certainly isn't going to endear me to you.

Lastly.

I am correct.

And it's inevitable that 90% of my assertions on a topic will bear fruit.

That ain't an ego thing, it's a pattern thing.

And don't tell me I don't know how to construct an argument, I did it when you asked us to make a vaccine debate thread and it was promptly ignored by everyone on the other side.

Don't be posturing and acting like I don't do a thing when I did it out of a courtesy for you and was rewarded with dismissal and disrespect.
