I love that we’re trying to turn moderation and bans into popularity contests now, complete with voting. That’ll surely only lead to good things for the SDMB.
I’m curious how that post will be misread. Probably very creatively. And it will be all your fault since you aren’t part of the gang.
I’m actually amazed the sequence had no errors in it.
On this topic, I would thinks so, yes.
I doubt you could accurately articulate my stance on this topic.
And once the mob manages to burn the heretics on this one particular topic, you think they’ll be satiated? That it won’t then be repeated over and over again on every topic where conservative voices raise uncomfortable points for liberals to consider, until the righteous have struck down all the wicked dissenters and this place is returned to driven-snow purity, unblemished by evil right-wingers?
Oh, I can be very … “articulate.” Mr **octopus **sir.
Not that I agree with this slippery slope bullshit, but I’m not seeing a downside.
Although kudos for inadvertently admitting misogyny is only a problem for one side of the political spectrum.
Oh yeah, your side is clean as a whistle on this. :rolleyes:
Y’know this ‘gang’ thing being bandied about?
It’s not gangs. It’s about bloody-well acknowledging that the minority bullshit of speaking for women, telling women what is best for them/what they feel and basically infantalising women is being called out BY THE MAJORITY OF POSTERS HERE.
It’s NOT an ‘alternative viewpoint’. It has no place in 21stC discourse. It needs to be called out every time it happens and shows those who promote such ideas to be the fucken Neanderthals that they are.
It’s not a gang. It’s an attitude that decent human beings adopted many years ago, but some of you cretins have been a bit slow to understand.
Based on your recent posts in ATMB, you do not seem to be keeping my advice in mind at all.
Your behavior is becoming a consistent problem in ATMB. I strongly suggest that you change it.
My behavior? When I respond to a multitude of people who dishonestly interpret my words in order to insult me it’s my behavior? When these same folk have a pattern of intellectual dishonesty it’s my behavior?
If misogynistic stuff is bad why haven’t I received a warning for misogyny? I haven’t posted misogynistic stuff that’s why. With the amount of people who clearly don’t like me and have reported my posts surely I would have picked up a warning for what they have claimed I have done! You are being manipulated by the internet equivalent of a Heckler’s Veto and it’s obvious.
Moderator Note
Very well, since you insist on not taking my advice, you may now consider yourself topic banned in ATMB. You may not discuss anything at all related to women’s issues or misogyny in ATMB.
I will also discuss broadening this ban to encompass the entire SDMB with the rest of the staff.
So I can’t respond to stuff you say directed at me in a thread about moderation? That seems cowardly to capitulate to a dishonest mob.

Your posts consistently indicate that you have absolutely no intention of changing your behavior or attitude. Therefore, moderation was necessary.
Ellison is a poster here? Who knew.
That’s complete nonsense. I’m following the rules. You don’t like that I’m unpopular and persistent. You are making this personal.
You can’t think of one rule you may have broken in this whole affair? Like, one, single rule? Or principle, even?
Um, with the amount of mod and motivated individuals acting completely independently attention I obviously get don’t you think it would have been noted at the very least? Nah. I’m obviously responsible for how others react now. That’s a super secret rule!
Wait, you’re complaining that you weren’t mod-noted before you were mod-noted?
