Yeah, I'm calling bullshit on that one. I don't believe for a second it was just an innocent, genuine question, instead of an attempt of a sarcastic rhetorical question as a rebuttal to previous comments. But okay, I can't read your mind, I just don't believe you and we'll get nowhere on this specific line of debate so there's no point in going any further.

The irony of telling me to learn to read when you can't be bothered to read about the thing you're criticising, the same thing you later stated that you don't care about because you don't live in the UK but then tell me it was a genuine question, so you must care about it somewhat, Idfk.

Oh well, this will go nowhere, Lol.

You can call it whatever you want.  Facts don't care about your opinion.  I didn't quote anybody and asked a question.  Nothing more.  Relax bud and drop old grudges.    

If only you were this upset when a VG member called for the murder of all conservatives, lol.  

Lol.

I think you're projecting a little, I was trying to go easy on you until you told me to learn to read, Lmao. I would happily admit that we don't tend to get along and past experiences is why I believe what I do, but I wouldn't say I'm acting on a grudge, a bit odd of you to try to accuse me of that, it might be you that has the grudge.

Reminder that I've never moderated you, I've never completely shut you out, I wasn't particularly happy about you leaving the first time around, I deleted my comments on your wall as a show of good faith, I've always maintained that offer of support to you in regards to your family situation. I've often reached across the aisle so to speak with you, due to your anti-Trump stance despite me disagreeing with you on practically everything else. Sure there are some people I actively dislike but I wouldn't describe that as a grudge, they're just assholes.

You did nothing to insult or offend me, I do not believe you treated me badly, we both gave to each other the same amount but you are barely on my mind bro, you aren't special amongst the hundreds of people that I've argued with over the years, and I've had 10x nastier arguments with other people than I have had with yourself, and I still talk to those people because I move on quickly, I'm not trying to insult you or anything but I don't care about you enough to hold a grudge and that's the honest truth.

I literally posted in Modchat that I feel like I have to walk on eggshells around you now because of how you left last time we had a debate. Now I want an out of this debate to avoid that happening again, so I'll back off on this current debate about the transphobic comedian and leave it at that, the tweet has been posted in full, the laws have been established, I can move on.

Is there some bug that's getting worse or something? Lmao. Zorg's post in Chrkeller's box and earlier I tried to respond to someone in here and it completely erased my post, I forgot what user it was but it was the first time it had ever happened to me, maybe there's some fuckery happening to the quoting functionality?

Edit - To stay on topic a little, the poll probably should have had a centre option.

Agreed on both points.

Especially with financial aid.  Give someone 60k a year for Harvard or give 6 people 10k each for a State School...  easy decision.  Any University worth billions shouldn't be receiving my tax dollars.  

Sure, but I also brought up examples of individuals, not the US government, employing cancel culture tactics about anything they perceive as “woke”, which by now just means “things I don’t like”. My point is free speech isn’t a left/right thing.

But again, what you’re saying sounds good in theory but it doesn’t actually address the issue and ignores that people aren’t treated the same. If the government doesn’t step in and help groups that are being discriminated against, who will? Pretending that racism, sexism & xenophobia don’t exist doesn’t help anything.

Also, you still haven’t given examples of white men being punished for being white men.

I told you to read because you falsely accused me of rebutting someone with argument.  Facts: I didn't quote anyone, and I asked a question.  I literally did not make a statement.    

The issue, IMHO, you put a lot of words in my mouth, most of which are not true.  

And I left last time because I had you nailing my wall, Pi hitting me up in chat and a third mod hitting me when I was posting + in chat.  As far as I am concerned, there is no way to spin 3 mods being up my ***.  It wasn't appropriate, and I think you know it.   

I do not agree with you that it wasn't appropriate, I don't think we shouldn't be allowed to debate with users just because we're Mods and have to wait our turn to have an input, Pi-Guy wasn't acting in a Mod capacity against you at all, he was having a debate with you, I don't know who that 3rd Mod was or what that chat was, (PM?) and the only reason I posted on your wall was because I wanted to take the off-topic discussion out of the thread. Not once were you moderated or even warned of moderation IIRC.

Your last moderation was in 2020 by CGI-Quality and it seems that was about some Mod disagreement which resulted in a threat to leave the site so it's not like it's not a trend with yourself to threaten to leave or straight up leaving.

Mod Note in 2020: (You're free to leave if you want, you're free to remain if you want. You're even free to disagree with a moderation. BUT, mods nor users will take abuse from you in the forums, in PMs, nor on Walls. You have a problem with self control. Your mod history shows that and all recent dealings with you tell me that. So, the Warning against you was obviously well placed, and if this is what we can expect from you, then yes, stay gone!)

I think your issue is that you see us only as Mods and maybe have a problem with authority figures, you've threatened to leave the site once based on a previous disagreement with moderation, you actually followed up with your threat last year to leave the site due to a disagreement with a Mod, but to be clear, disagreements with users who happen to be Mods, not a disagreement with a Mod decision.

Since I'm debating with you now, does that mean that anyone else who disagrees with you who is also a Mod isn't allowed to respond to you? It should make no difference whether we're Mods or not, unless we're acting on official Mod business. We're also still USERS who agree or disagree with other users. If you can't make that distinction then it is a you problem. I think it's pretty obvious when I'm debating as a user and when I'm smacking someone down as a Mod, Lol. I think it's obvious with other Mods too.

Surely you see the awkward situation you're putting us in as well? Debate with you too much and you leave, take the off-topic conversation to your wall and you complain, take it to PM and you will complain, if we continue it here we're dragging the thread off-topic. So the only option you're giving us is that we're apparently meant to shut up whilst you make accusations about the Mod team such as us "being inappropriate" which is also what happened last go around. You're being impossible man. Just move on, Lol.

The Nazi's were not socialist.  The used the word socialist in their name to attract working people even though they pretty much did nothing for working people especially once they took over power.   When they took over power they outlawed workers unions, froze wages, and outlawed workers strikes.  That sure doesn't sound socialist to me on top of all they privatized more businesses than all other countries in Europe at that time.  And they also put most socialist leaders into concentration camps and outlawed all opposition political parties.  Plus, on the Night of the Long Knives in 1934 they purged and killed all left leaning members from their party.
