Thanks.




So one cannot post certain images but one can display a huge sign describing an image in the most vulgar language imaginable. Is this what you're saying?

I don't mean to minimize the difficulty in refereeing this, Shades. It's your board and though I sometimes disagree, I think you try to be fair. I mean it when I say thanks.

Sure thing, Dr. Shades. Let’s all remember Thanksgiving 2019 as the day the free speech Ex-Mormon board successfully strong armed the Libertarian site owner into censoring posts critical of Jews.

By the way, do you ever wonder why the “hook-nose” meme creates such a panic among Jews?

Hint: it has to do with Neanderthal DNA and a secret war that’s been going on for 70,000 years: Why Do Neanderthals Have Such Big Noses?

I think most sane members of the board feel the same way. Thanks, Shades.

Smokey however responds immediately by posting a meme showing a monstrous face with text that says 'Have you ever seen a Jew without his civilised face on?'.

How not surprising that you're another whiny snowflake who thinks that the world owes him their resources to push his own agenda.

You could start your own board. If you're too lazy to do that, don't complain that you're being oppressed because someone else doesn't care to let you crap all over their own work.

You like to believe that you're so very woke, but you might consider that you're a bit behind most others in your learning curve on Neanderthal DNA. But that's not surprising given what you think you know about the origin of North American peoples.

No. If the vulgar language contains the "F" or "S" words, then it too may only be posted in the Spirit Prison forum. . . just like always.

I'm not censoring POSTS critical of Jews. I am administratively reclassifying to a different forum an IMAGE that could conceivably get someone fired from work. This way, people can select their own risk level based on whether they're surfing the site during their lunch break or surfing it at home.

I’m don’t think you meant it this way, but just in case you or someone else thought you were referring to the images of an old avatar that I posted on the previous page, i have removed those, to remain fully in keeping with the spirit of Dr. Shades’ ruling:

Dr. Shades:

...Any posts or images that contain only words can remain here, however. This is because I don't want ANYONE to be at risk for being fired simply because they innocently scrolled into an image that someone else posted.]

George Buck, one of six Republican primary candidates for Florida’s 13th Congressional District, referred to several Democrats but in particular to Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, D-Minnesota. Omar was born in Somalia and came to the U.S. as a child.

In the recent letter to potential donors, he said that “we should hang” Omar and other “traitors” for “abusing our system to destroy our country.” He mentioned “tinfoil hat accusations” against President Donald Trump, but didn’t elaborate.


I wonder why he felt comfortable enough to, you know, publicly state that in his district. Weird, huh?

Wow, subgenius triggered (also, at least I have hair you [personal information deleted])? Color me shocked. That said, how many of his celebs were running for Congress and were talking to their constituents?
