If you ask me, I'm always gonna lean this way. Can we all just dial it back a notch on Ashley Johnson46? Seriously, give the guy a break for five minutes.
Hey Andrew Williams52, what’s your take on the Zaprešić Boys? 😁
Honestly, I just feel like the mod team is being a little too heavy-handed here.
Take me, for instance. I’ve already picked up a few strikes just for raising questions about irregularities in certain specific instances—questions I backed up with video evidence from pretty reliable sources. These weren't just people rambling on vaguely; they were actually using available voting data and eyewitness accounts from poll watchers to make their points.
Then there's my most recent strike, slapped on me for supposedly pushing "crazy conspiracy theories" because I mentioned the threats made against two election certification officials over in Wayne County. I guess the mods won't accept Fox's interview with those exact individuals where they literally confirm they were being threatened.
Look, I totally get it—I basically walked straight into a trap by letting things pile up like that and honestly, it’s not even my first rodeo when it comes to screwing up :D
So how is this off-topic when the post I’m actually replying to is clearly part of the thread? And what about my colleague and those other folks calling me some kind of extremist who supports massacres? Does that somehow have anything to do with the actual topic at hand?
People around here are constantly being told to watch their tone and articulate their grievances decently. Does that rule apply to the moderators too? Because if they can't even explain their own reasoning, then what’s the point of having this guy around in the first place?
That was pretty sloppy of me because if my memory serves, I'm pretty sure I actually said 'American dreamers'
But since I can't find the original post, would you mind just c/p it here? If I actually left out the word 'American,' then yeah, that’s on me and I get why I got flagged. Though, honestly, anyone reading the context of the post I was replying to should have realized I was talking about those guys smuggling weapons across the Mexican border
My bad, I think you totally misread what I was getting at here. I wasn't out here claiming that kids or some starry-eyed dreamers are smuggling weapons into the States; I was actually reacting to that post about how Americans are smuggling guns down into Mexico—which, let’s be honest, nobody ever really talks about. I was just being a little sarcastic when I said Trump’s wall actually did Mexico a favor, since now it's even harder for those American smugglers to move their stuff across.
As for those other posts you say were deleted, I can certainly weigh in on that if you'd just tell me which ones specifically you're talking about.
I’m officially throwing a fit about the last two warnings I picked up for just messing around in that US election thread.
One came from lonebadger6 and the other was from Chloe Campbell95.
In my humble opinion, they were both totally overkill. The one from lonebadger6 was basically for just being a smartass, and the other one was because I had to defend myself against some random accusation that I’m some kind of anti-Biden plant just because Biden called out those specific atrocities overseas. And now, naturally, they're still obsessing over me in the actual thread, which—surprise, surprise—isn't technically breaking any forum rules.
P.s. I’m actually doubling down on this appeal since I just realized my title doesn't strictly follow the official guidelines for filing a formal grievance with the moderation board.
I am absolutely drowning in work here On Friday, I’ve got the plumbers coming to fix the heating, the tile guy is wrapping up some finishing touches, and the new doors and kitchen setup are finally arriving Then on Saturday, it's full-on installation mode for both the kitchen and the heating system
Today, I basically blew everything up and decided to just walk around in the dark for a bit to clear my head It seems like a ton of people have suddenly developed an interest in being outdoors now that everyone's stuck inside dealing with this whole pandemic mess
