ChiefsPlanet Keep your political bullshit in DC and out of all other forums - Page 27

We're seeing an uptick in people randomly throwing out political bullshit in threads in the Lounge. Don't. Report people who do. They'll get booted from the thread for a first offense and more than that if they continue.

The end.

Due to continued reported posts and general frustrations around inserting politics into absolutely everything, and idea came up to restrict people to DC, much like the Romper Room.

So, everyone gets three thread bans as warnings, and after that will get a vacation in DC (the other forums will be view only). The thread bans and DC vacations will be posted in the transparency thread.

Just like several other rules, there's of course gray area and it doesn't really matter where the line is drawn, because those who can keep politics out of the Lounge will never come close to the line and those who can't will insist on running right up to it.

Generally speaking, we're talking about political opinions or blatantly inserting politics into a thread that isn't even a little bit on topic, or otherwise leaking DC BS into the Lounge or other forums.

Honestly, if mods would just flush The Turd D.C would instantly be a better place.

I didn’t say anything about that. But I’ve seen your work and I definitely don’t trust your judgment either. No offense, but I’d take Dane’s over yours.

You conveniently follow everything your party espouses and have zero individual thoughts of your own.

And last time I checked, you don't live in a city in which White people are the minority, which further invalidates your "knowledge" of racsim.

If murdering Liberals where a "thing", you'd be first in line to murder, while simultaneously swallowing Dick Cheney's cock.

Go cry in the corner, Dane.

I don't know about anyone else but JFC, is really too much to ask people to stop advocating for the murder, yes, murder, of elected officials?

I mean, again, I don't know how anyone else feels but to me, that's a line that shouldn't be crossed, at least not on Chiefsplanet.

I've seen people over there advocate for the mass murder of everyone that's a boomer or older.

The amount of people wishing death, violence, and dancing on graves is by far the worst thing going over there.

I may be an ass, but that shit isnt my game. I'm a man of peace.

You dont see it?

REALLY?

I mean there are at least two others who are about as overt as you can be without slurs.

Especially how they talk about the tribe of tiny hats. They're really upset about them.

I can attest to this... There have been a couple, maybe a few, times I was asked to chill. It works very well, no mater the Mod.

This is plain and simple wrong. Are you really saying that one has to be in the majority to be racist? Please clarify what you mean.

Fuck off, Bitch.

YOU don't have biracial children nor are you married to a non-White person, so the mere idea that you're going school me over racism is laughable at best and beyond fucking STUPID at worst.

Go cuddle with your lifesized poster of Dick Cheney, woman.

Unfortunately, that's a fight against basic human nature but a lot of the "political" bickering in the Lounge is actually people just carrying over personal conflicts that started in DC (and I'm guilty of this as well FWIW).

It's definitely a good argument for getting rid of DC completely, except we'd then basically need reddit-style moderation of politics everywhere else.

I've probably said things like that too but with a twinge of sarcasm like "Man, I can't wait until all you old white people are dead."

Inappropriate? Sure. Calling for the murder of specific people in that forum or of government officials? No way.

What I mean?

My wife is non-white. My children look closer to white than Asian, yet my wife, on several occasions, has been asked how much earns as a nanny, all the way up to "Where do this child's parents live?" and more.

I've seen subtle racism and I've seen blatant racism, at times, directly in my face.

Can you say the same?
