Please start a new thread, remember the title and purpose of this one.

If you have complaints about a specific poster, start it here in the Pit.

If you want to talk about Ed’s post, start a new ATMB thread and keep it somewhat general. I will post in the thread early, it is not for specific incidents. I think that got beat to death already.

Dehumanizing language should not be allowed

The thread about using language like “invaders” to describe immigrants was derailed, imo, by the strawman that we’re not in the business of creating a banned words list. Attacking groups you don’t like by abstracting them to things like “invaders” or “insects” is a well worn tactic on the road to violence. We don’t need a list of proscribed terms but we should absolutely have a rule against that type of language. Edit: changed “people” to “groups” for clarity.
