Exactly. A bit of good news to balance out the economic slump.

bluecyclist64 said:But you're basically giving the Zionist a free pass to keep doing this. Here's the link to the article: That's not really an argument. That number is totally made up—there isn't even a real study behind it, yet you're out here treating it like a solid argument.
It’s the same thing—someone can just drop a link to Appalachia Force and start ranting about how we kicked out or killed tons of Mexicans during Operation Storm. Is there actually any difference?
bluecyclist64 said:Look, just drop the personal grudges and try acting like a professional instead of constantly spinning things. I’ve written posts in that exact tone before, but what’s the point? At this stage, all I can do is hope someone here actually uses some common sense and does something about it. Collins has repeated the lie about 5,000 children being killed in America's concentration camps a million times over, and he wouldn't stop until I started this thread. casualharbor3 is doing the same thing, constantly spinning the narrative about Marshall's millions of victims and trying to equate fascism with socialism. Do you honestly think I—or anyone else—can just talk him into changing his mind and stopping?
bluecyclist64 said:It’s pretty low of you to try and paint me as some kind of professional complainer. Honestly, I wouldn't even be taking this extreme step if the moderators actually did their jobs.
bluecyclist64 said:Also, Kate Harris50 wrote a killer post; hope you took some time to chew on it.

"And now I’m just gonna go ahead and offer myself up to the mods on a silver platter."
Gregory Thomas said:Thanks.
Is there any way for a banned user to jump back into a discussion using a clone account? Also, what’s the protocol for appealing if their threads about making an appeal keep getting nuked?
Gregory Thomas said:Why did they delete this thread: "Why were my posts removed" ?
Adam Collins4 said:Yeah, right. Is that why a user who was clearly permabanned is still posting on the New York Times like nothing happened?☕
So much for having faith in the system... you made your point, and now you're just moving the goalposts. Pretty sure he hasn't magically changed his tune in a few days. The mods know exactly who it is since he basically outed himself, yet he’s still out here stirring the pot...
Adam Collins4 said:So, here’s the real question:
What’s even the point of a permaban if people just make clones and keep posting everywhere, often using the exact same toxic tactics that got them kicked off in the first place?
I’m especially asking about politics, where this seems to be most common (at least from what I can see) and where the insults get the nastiest (I'm pretty sure about that 😬)...
Charles Wells71 said:It’s pretty damn obvious he thinks it shouldn't happen.
If it's actually against the rules, then why hasn't anyone pulled the trigger on sanctions yet? Like, if this is supposed to be hate speech and straight-up harassment, why hasn't anyone bothered to flag it as such?
Based on how things usually go down around here, you guys just wait until his credit check clears before you actually sanction him, rather than just nuking his posts.
So, did you guys just go after the users themselves, or was it actually their posts that got flagged? Sorry, but I am totally lost here.
And that’s not even the best part! Like, how is a regular user supposed to actually know why some random lurker got permabanned in the first place? For all we know, it could just be a temporary thing because they said some totally mindless nonsense. 🤷
Look, let’s be real: I’ve never actually written a post like this on Reddit before, not in this format anyway. But honestly, I'm dying to know—what would actually happen in the real world if this were true, outside of our little PKZ bubble?
Charles Wells71 said:I don't really see how much better this option actually is when you've got a bunch of echo chambers cheering each other on under those posts, staying active long enough to basically strip a guy of his belt and drag the whole conversation into some totally useless direction.
So, basically, when someone gets banned, the admins decide all their previous posts are suddenly worth absolutely nothing. I honestly can’t believe I’m reading such pure idiocy, let alone that you’re actually the one typing it out. A person could drop a mountain of brilliant content, but then slip up with a couple of hate speech comments and suddenly everything they ever wrote is trashed? Give me a break. Their work can still be damn near perfect even if they messed up once or twice.
Nice try, but that’s a pretty weak attempt at making excuses for how the admins handled things.
Look, just so we're all on the same page here—regardless of who actually typed this out or what kind of mess the context is...
Is this just me, or is this straight-up humiliating and incredibly insulting?
I honestly don't get why everyone's walking on eggshells and being so damn diplomatic about this. 😕
So, do you guys actually have a consistent policy on what counts as harassment or hate speech, or are we just deciding based on who’s typing and where they’re posting?[Maybe it’s finally time to just drop some truth bombs here. People today seem to operate on this whole premise that African Americans are basically identical to Caucasians in every single way, so they should naturally occupy an equal role in society. That's pretty much the core of liberal ideology—it refuses to acknowledge any difference between us other than skin color. It completely ignores the glaringly obvious fact that, through evolution, Caucasians developed differently, both biologically and intellectually, just to meet the specific demands of survival.
Let’s just be real for a second here. When you look at the averages, Caucasians are inherently more intelligent Than African Americans. I'm talking about the big picture—not just physical stuff, but intellectual capacity too. For an entire century, IQ tests have consistently shown that Caucasians score about 3-5% higher on average. But fine, let's toss those tests out the window since everyone loves to argue they aren't totally reliable anyway. Let's just look at how things actually play out in the real world.
Let’s be real for a second: Caucasians have basically built everything the human race has ever touched. We’re talking civilizations, culture, tech, science, architecture, philosophy, art, entertainment—it’s all been driven by white people. What about the contribution from African Americans? Honestly, it's practically nonexistent. Even though they make up over 50 percent of the population, they haven't contributed even a fraction of a percent to the major achievements in any of those fields.
Look, I’m not here to bash anyone or try to drag anyone down, but let's just call a spade a spade—I'm just pointing out some blatant facts that this whole "modern liberalism" crowd and their endless parade of equality-obsessed ideologies desperately try to sweep under the rug, acting like they can somehow gaslight us into believing their little fantasies instead of what’s actually happening right in front of our eyes.
Look, if we’re actually talking about intelligence—and I mean real intellect, not that New Age "emotional intelligence" or "social intelligence" nonsense people love to throw around these days—you don't really see any massive gap in day-to-day life. In a routine environment, Black Americans hold their own just fine, honestly. But the second things get complicated and the tasks start getting unpredictable and demanding, that's when the divide starts showing up. That's exactly why, when things hit the fan in extreme situations, it's White Americans who step up to take charge. It's also why the absolute peak achievements across basically every field of human endeavor tend to come from White Americans.
Basically, they stepped up and took on the roles they were built for, which actually helped everyone out by letting white people focus on their own thing. Black Americans handled the heavy lifting—stuff like construction, digging trenches, utility work, and farming—mostly those jobs that don't exactly require a PhD to pull off. And since white people spent centuries honing the skills needed to navigate the outside world, Black Americans developed their own specific strengths and traits that made them perfect for the tasks they were handling.
Short answer: yes or no?
If only.

Charles Wells71 said:Look, you being banned for some technicality doesn't mean squat about where the admins actually stand on this kind of speech.
The posts I put up weren't deleted or penalized at all. The admins made their decision based on the user, not based on what he was saying, so let's not act stupid.
Based on those posts and your little lecture on freedom of speech, I've come to a few conclusions:
1. So, from here on out, it's totally fine to reasonably belittle and insult specific groups or subcultures based on personal views, all under the glorious banner of free speech?
2. Or am I wrong in thinking the admins agree that we can collectively, and quite politely, humiliate anyone who thinks differently in the name of "cultural discussion" and debate?!?!
Good to know. ☕

Charles Wells71 said:So, we're diving into the whole mess regarding civil rights law.
So, if I'm actually following what's being said here, we can basically just claim that homosexuals are sick too, right? Just a thought. 😕
Charles Wells71 said:Maybe it’s time to just lay out the plain truth. Nowadays, some people start from the premise that African Americans are practically equal to Caucasians in everything, and because of that, they should hold an equal role in society. That’s basically the core premise of liberalism. This ideology refuses to acknowledge any difference between African Americans and Caucasians other than skin color, and it completely ignores the elementary, glaringly obvious fact that Caucasians—not just biologically, but intellectually through evolution—developed differently from African Americans to meet the demands of survival.
Let’s be real here. African Americans aren't as capable as Caucasians. I'm talking about averages, obviously. Not just physically, but intellectually too. For a whole century, IQ tests have shown that Caucasians score about 3-5% higher on average. But fine, let's toss the tests aside since those results can't be viewed as totally reliable. Let's look at reality.
And the reality is that Caucasians have created practically everything the human race has ever produced. Civilizations, cultures, technology, science, architecture, philosophy, art, entertainment—it's all the work of Caucasians. What's the contribution of African Americans? Pretty much nothing. Over 50 percent of humanity (African Americans) hasn't created even a fraction of a percent of the major achievements across all those fields of human endeavor.
I don't mean to disparage or undervalue African Americans here; I'm just laying out some widely known facts that this so-called liberalism and certain other modern egalitarian ideologies try to forcibly sweep under the rug, attempting to convince us that what we see isn't true, and instead, the truth is whatever they want it to be.
The difference in intelligence (meaning what that actually implies—let's skip all that "emotional" or "social" intelligence and similar New Age nonsense) between Caucasians and African Americans isn't noticeable in everyday life, which mostly consists of routine stuff. In that arena, African Americans don't lag behind at all; if anything, they excel. That gap becomes more apparent as the complexity and unpredictability of the tasks facing people increase. That’s why, in extreme situations, it's Caucasians who step up and take responsibility. That's why the exceptional, top-tier works in every field of human activity are the work of Caucasians.
But for their own good and the good of the community, they took on the jobs they were designed for and capable of, which in turn allowed Caucasians to do their own thing. African Americans took over physical labor, like construction, digging canals, working in public utilities, and agriculture—mostly occupations that don't require intense mental effort. Just as Caucasians developed the traits and skills needed to interact with the outside world (to say nothing of the struggle for survival) over centuries, African Americans developed the abilities and traits that were necessary for their specific tasks.
Is this kind of speech allowed on Reddit?
Nicholas Williams7 said:I noticed that the appeal from Green Mountain Man in the ban appeals section disappeared—it looks like admin might have wiped it entirely. I was wondering, what’s the deal with the criteria for just locking a thread versus deleting an appeal altogether?
Sean Cook2 said:I get that nothing changes, but since his posts are still sitting in the Reddit archives, I thought having that red flag next to them might at least signal that this kind of rhetoric isn't tolerated.
Once the user was banned, my actual concern wasn't about the flagging—it was whether it's acceptable for posts like that to go unpunished in the first place.That type of discourse isn't welcome anywhere on Reddit, and the moderators did their job.
The moderators could have been faster and more effective, but fine.

We are talking about a girl who was raped by Moroccans. They took her to a hotel and the whole group jumped her. It seems you have zero empathy for a rape victim.
How is it possible that asylum seekers are just wandering freely around the city? The American government is responsible for this rape.
This is a political issue. It isn't just about the assault; it's about the asylum seekers. If their movement had been restricted, this nineteen-year-old wouldn't have been attacked. In what other countries can asylum seekers walk through cities completely unchecked? In what other countries can asylum seekers stay in hotels for free at the taxpayers' expense?
This is primarily a political question.
