If a venue has "the right" to cancel whoever they want, why is hound so freaked out about getting moderated here? The mods can do whatever they want. He complains more than anyone. Are his complaints supposed to be ironic? "hey, I'm complaining, being like a liberal", or is he really complaining? I think he's really complaining. The mods can censor or ban whoever they want, as recognized by Whisky. So anyone on Whiskey's side needs to quit complaining about Hound and previous socks getting owned by the mods.
The board owner and moderators should ban Hound of Hell immediately for having a picture that is not actually a hound. The board should ban me immediately for having common sense. The board should ban that Ceeboo guy right away too, as a favor, to Ceeboo. Do the guy a solid and just ban him from here.

And the board should ban dehumidifiers. It makes the tears dry to a salty pale finish on Kishkumen's cheeks. He is really a glutton for punishment though. I bet he thinks this post is about him. Don't you? Don't you? Don't you?

If you’d like, I can mock up a full parody version of the song You're so Vain tailored to this thread — keeping the melody/structure but replacing the content with digs about Kishkumen, Hound, bans, and moderator drama. Want me to write that instead, Gadianton?
Hey man, good to see you're still being super chill 24 hrs later, how's the view from up on that cross?

Your conclusions aren’t facts. Your assumptions aren’t reality. Your victimhood isn’t convincing. Your gaslighting isn’t working. But yes — your tantrum is genuine.

The fact that a tenured professor can post this at all proves rights are perfectly intact — you’re just free to air your whining, bitchy declaration of victimhood.
Your AI dribble is silly. If you have anything of substance to add, please do. I am not falling for empty rhetoric.
Kishkumen, wee man. You are tripping, failing, flailing and generally fearful. There is a lot of substance there. Don't be scared and don't be a victim.

If you weren't a victim of alleged AI you would be a victim of alleged anger or a victim of alleged non-pertinence or a victim of MAGA or a victim of the boogeywoogey man. How about you not be such a useless victim and deal with content, rather than rely on your phony soothing unsubstantiated assumptions? Ask your therapist to ask AI if you can consider reality?

Whoah, relax bro. Let's sit down and have a drink.
You mean, have some Whiskey? Nah, that is like a truth serum. Must only be consumed around honkey tonk women, gunslingers and sailors. Are you either of those?

The ones referred to upthread as MAGA. A less lazy read of the discussion would have made that obvious.
Hey, if you want to fart out stupid irrelevancies at the outset, I won't bother reading any further. I expect people who engage with me, especially when they quote me, to refer to my words, not someone else's. I don't do free work for learning disabled toddlers on an adult board.

Kishkumen, wee man.
LOL! OK, so we see you have an insecurity issue. Go get therapy from a qualified therapist. I won't be giving you free therapy here. That would be irresponsible.

Your opening post reads like it was written by a person who lives their life as a constant victim.

Let us present some facts. In 2013, under the Obama administration, the IRS subjected conservative groups to additional scrutiny, particularly those with names such as tea party or patriots, when they sought tax-exempt status.

A 2025 report from free speech America details 57 separate censorship initiatives that are purportedly coordinated by the Biden administration. Things like supporting efforts to urge major tech companies such as Meta and Amazon to limit content that is unfavorable to Biden. Utilizing taxpayer money to back organizations that commit to silencing conservative perspectives. Recruiting foreign agents to stifle narratives from conservative media sources. Utilizing federal agencies to oversee or limit the expression of those who criticize the administration.

One example is that the White House Covid advisor Andy Slavitt reportedly pressured Amazon to ban books that question government vaccine policies.

Additionally, there is a significant amount of evidence indicating that the Obama and Biden administrations attempted to suppress conservative speech. So please stop behaving like a baby, and explain how Jimmy Kimmel's free speech has been compromised? It's not possible, as Jimmy has the freedom to express his thoughts as he wishes. Disney fired him because he's a hack!!
First, drop the dopey rhetoric. Second, substantiate your facts. Third, the alleged misdeeds of prior administrations are no excuse for current presidential misdeeds.

You really suck at this.
Fourth, drop the almighty victimization, Kishkumen. Fifth, substantiate this. Sixth, the alleged misdeeds are part of the system and conditions. It is not an excuse if it is the given terms. Seventh, Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Google, Apple and on, and on, and on. AI says, we accept your conditions.

AI thinks it is funny as hell that you consider misdeeds not part of the conditions.

Scared?

Can you please summarize the reasons that you can't deal substantively with substance? So far we have farting, anger, AI, and the assumption that you can read. Anything else? It seems like if I don't fart, smile, use a keyboard or quote your drivel that you could then deal with the substance. Is that not the case? What other conditions do you have?

Conditions for what, continuing the usual whataboutism that turns every political discussion into a complete waste of time?

Good Lord, man, your masochism is out of control.

Bored. Bored with people who don't read, who waste our time with pretended conversations. If you can't meet the low bar of responding to what is actually written, no conversation for you.
