Double jeopardy should apply here, so even if you are found to be a racist, you wouldn't get moderated now.
I've read a bit through the thread that provided the initial evidence for the accusation that you are a racist. Your entry point to the discussion was in defense of Slimebeast who had come under fire for being a racist. Since your defense of the superiority of certain races was spread across many, many posts, there's no reason to believe that you were joking about your point of view. A more recent post of yours where you request to shift a conversation to PMs because of fear that you could get banned further supports the accusation that you are a racist.

I'll address the accusation of racism later but whether you believe or not I was being sarcastic about my post is everyone else's end of the problem and there's a common presumption of "innocent until proven guilty" in courts so it should be applied here in this case as well and me requesting a shift to the discussion towards PMs should not be taken as proof of racism either ...
Much less, VGP never engaged with me in private after that post ...

You explain this by saying that the demographics of this website are at fault, but I'd say the issue is that you are a racist. You know that the term 'racist' has exclusively negative connotations, so of course you don't want to be called a racist. You say that you don't have any defined criteria or a consensus of what is superiority, but that didn't stop you from declaring superiority, including your own, roughly one year ago. Now of course people can change their mind over time, but the more recent post of yours (linked in the previous paragraph) is only one month old. The observable change is not that your mind has changed, but rather that your awareness of what is and what is not acceptable to say has increased.

That's just your jump in logic, I've never faulted this community and I always knew that the term racist had negative connotations even before joining this site so that aspect on my end didn't change from the start ...
And I truly don't have enough knowledge to comment on what is or isn't "superior" but I've always presented statistics but that doesn't mean it should be conflated as racism ...

VGC is not NeoGAF nor ResetEra, two websites that are infamous for getting rid of people who don't subscribe to far left leaning politics. VGC actually barely moderates political discussion. Despite that, you still manage to find yourself repeatedly in trouble. It's not the mod team or the community that is at fault here, it's your fault alone.

I've only gotten moderated 3 times I think for similar instances in the political threads and up until recently I haven't been moderated for OVER a year (Back when StarOcean was a mod!) for a similar offense so what do you even mean by that assertion ?
And the post that both you and VGP were referring to that I got moderated for was also OVER 1 year ago so obviously I DID change my attitude and style ... (Feburary 17th, 2017!)

The one thing that bothers me the most is that you call VGPolyglot's tactics underhanded. That's incredibly detached from reality. The definition of 'underhanded' is something that is done in secret and commonly also dishonest, but everything VGPolyglot did is in plain sight and backed up with evidence. You are employing a Donald Trump tactic where you try to discredit others with unsubstantiated and false accusations, but that's not going to work on VGC.

What VGP is doing is underhanded since he's trying to bait me by getting the mods to backseat moderate me and I only just realized from past few posts that he's trying to remove from this community ...
