Yes, he is...

DCP wrote:Remember that infamous recent women’s volleyball game between Duke University and Brigham Young University in Provo during which the entire BYU fan section, by its silence, tacitly approved of racial invective directed at one of the Duke players? Remember how the women’s basketball coach at the University of South Carolina cancelled BYU from her team’s schedule in order to keep them “safe”? Remember how nobody has found any actual evidence that any such racial invective ever occurred at the game? Remember that BYU defeated Duke? (That fact seems to have been obscured a bit, in all of the righteous outrage and soul-searching that followed.) Anyway, some plainly haven’t forgotten the incident, or non-incident. And the beat goes on:
Meridian Magazine: “BYU-Duke Volleyball: More Healing or More Culture War?”
Vox Nostra: “BYU, Duke, Pitchforks and Torches: It is entirely possible that both BYU and Duke are right in this matter. Consequently, we should give both BYU and Duke the benefit of the doubt.”
Common Sense: “How the Media Fell for A Racism Sham: A Brigham Young University paper scooped the New York Times. All the students did was practice basic journalism.”
Deseret News: “Political debate roils South Carolina after university cancels BYU women’s basketball games: State lawmakers demand University of South Carolina ‘apologize to BYU’ after canceling women’s basketball series”
I have to say that, in my view, Dawn Staley’s position was adopted far too hastily, and that her insistence on sticking by her position seems more than a little bit perverse.
I have to chuckle a little at DCP whinging on and on about a lack of evidence. This is the 3rd of 4th time he's cried about it. Nephites, anyone?

I've been gone for a while, did the dissenters who were here get banned? I recall a few.Fence Sitter wrote: ↑Fri Sep 16, 2022 12:33 pmWell to be frank, we really don't have any interesting faithful dissenting voices here either.
What is happening are these indirect conversations between here and Sic et Non.
It makes both places less interesting.

I don't think so. Banning is an extremely rare event here. Dissenters tend to get overwhelmed.

Well done. I really laughed.
Re: Sic et Non Is Dead
total banning, yes, but temporary banning seems to all the rage. Binger/Cultellus has to have been temporarily banned at least 4 times now, if not more.Fence Sitter wrote: ↑Thu Sep 22, 2022 2:02 pmI don't think so. Banning is an extremely rare event here.

Dissenters do get overwhelmed, no doubt about that. There is a line to toe and some people are weak.

A short list is the more correct way to describe it. Here are the details:
