Same. It’s my secret shame. 😛

I sometimes feel the same urge, but usually I’m able to resist. Not today, though.

Bah. Only a note? The one-sided persecution of conservatives has been really sub-par lately.

Hey **HurricanaDipshitka**! Stay the fuck out of my thread until you get smart enough to snark on the topic instead of repeating your old tired material.

Um, no. At no point in that thread do any of the mods address **iiandyiiii**. They do declare a topic he is part of to be off topic, but that is not is not the same thing as directly moderating **iiandyiiii**.

But even if you (stupidly) count that as “being moderated,” then literally all **iiandyiiii** has to do is point out that **HurricaneDitka** was moderated three times in that thread. So trying to pull a hypocrisy accusation is stupid.

Also, Blank Slate needs to learn what the word “burn” means. You can’t get burned by being called “haughty.”

That’s a shame. If he wasn’t such a coward he could come here and explain to me how opposing abortion out of the best interests of children and supporting putting actual, y’know, born children in concentration camps isn’t rank hypocrisy on his part. Oh well. Until he does I’ll assume it’s because he’s deeply racist.

Like the GOP, he’s pro-_birth_.

Thanks for explaining all that, you gibbering rhesus monkey. Does it ever occur to you to simply shut the fuck up?

Question for the adults: What censorship is Dickhead complaining about in the ATMB? Did the New Zealand government block the publication of his hero’s manifesto?

I think he might be complaining about attempts to block the live stream video of the murders. I’m sure he would hold the same opinion if his child was murdered, he’d want people to see it.

I’m glad to see **HurricaneDitka** is still entertaining! I was never sure whether he was a moron pretending to be an imbecile, or an imbecile struggling to come across as merely a moron. But I’ve been able to reduce my blood-pressure meds since I exercised the I\*n\*\*e option on Mr. **Ditka**.

In the unlikely event he ever posts something deserving a real chuckle — not just bemusement at his imbecility — please quote it to this thread.

See [this thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=872486). He starts off with a reasonable position that the mainstream social media outlets should probably censor the shooting video, though he has to make it about him and his gun owning ilk. Then on page 2 he complains of censorship in reaction to a second person getting arrested who shared the video among other things we don’t yet know all the details of by calling New Zealand a tyrannical shithole country.

Nice how he runs into an unrelated ATMB thread to “joke” about the NZ shooting. Ha ha, censorship!
