Good men don’t need rules?
The reason good people don’t need rules is because they wouldn’t violate them even if they did. Using that to rationalize being a jerk is misapplying it.
If you’re a “good man,” you wouldn’t be using the r-slur in the first place. The exact cognitive dissonance which allows fascists to be fascists is that they believe themselves to be good people and therefore don’t need rules. But instead of actually being good people, they use this as an excuse to be terrible to others.
Go look at the mod’s profile page. That’s where I got that.
Honestly, I think its a bullshit statement, so I called him out.
And then you ate the onion.Oh that was juicy. Thank you for that one.

*Noooo don’t call an actual real life monster and a fascist a no no word noooo that makes you just as bad as them nooooo! *
You managed to call them a monster and a fascist without resorting to ableist slurs just fine. Get over it.
I can get over minor things and words that don’t matter just fine. Can you? Thick skin and resilience matters a whole of a lot more than nagging other people about certain words.

so calling him any slur is okay, or just this one?
i mean, fuck that guy, but that word has a heavy and hateful impact on some people. i just think it’s easier for people to ignore that one than to ignore several others, unfortunately.

If only there were good people on the Internet… 😂
This headline will very likely be written in history books.
We’ve made a bit of progress. In the past, such a post would be immediately banned, simply for having the word in the title. As if the word itself is magical apart from context and intent.
Dear FBI, Kash Patel is a douchebag. Please make sure he sees this.
Hugs and kisses.

Wrong use of ellipses.
…no…
You can tell it’s a slur because of how haughty people get when you tell them they can’t say it. Lol they really want to be able to say it.
Mods, this isn’t the hill to die on and you know it.
Ban all who dare use slurs against fascists pedophiles!
Fascists sealioning and normalizing genocide? Okie dokie.
Man, I agree with you, but these are the rules:
“All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed.”
How you execute a consistent set of policies when the rules say you don’t have to be consistent is beyond me.
LOL! I think it’s one of those “read the room first” situations.
I’ve always said Kash Patel deserves 100% of the shit the GOP spews thrown right back in his “special needs” face… but that IS a slur against the actual people that are disabled, since Patel isn’t really needing of any special treatment or help… beyond the karmic swift one in the pants he so deserves.
Which should be given with extreme wit, vigor and prejudice.
Googly-eyed chud

Chud is a no no word meant to disparage underground canibals you can’t use that word!
And what did they say?
The central Twitter post wording is close to the top of the article.

It describes all Americans who allowed Trump to take power, through action or inaction.
:/
This admin is the most thin skinned set of man-babies I’ve ever witnessed in office.
I was recently banned from some vegan comm for using the word ‘moron’. Same justification.
They told me to fix my comment.
I said no.deserved
Can we use “reject” instead?
Until school-aged children begin calling their friends reject, then we will have to shift to more positive language like not unrejected. The object being of course to make it as obnoxious as possible for kids to use therapy language to make fun of each other.
better yet rejected
I’m just going through this thread upvoting every “Removed by moderator” comment I see.
