I'm pretty sure the actual intent of the rule is to stop people like T-Man from having 99% of their posts being a performative "Kill everyone" gimmick, or Screaming Idiot demanding that anti-government protests continue in the midst of a worldwide pandemic even if it means spreading the virus more. It's not about just banning politics, but goons being dumbasses about politics.

As a very frequent c-spam poster and insanely prolific pyf too, in fact if posts per day count then I'm #1 here, it seems pretty easy to keep a bunch of the political stuff out of here. There will always be a bit of bleed of politics into other stuff because it dictates so much of our existence.

Seeing someone go "maybe we can ease off on the constantly seeing the bullshit that is life right now and focus on things are a bit more happy (or what ever you call the feeling you get when you laugh at someone for yelling at a BK for closing early) for a while.

Everywhere is really loving poo poo for almost everyone right now. Having a small island bubble isn't really a big ask.

e: It's not a personal attack it's just saying 'hey maybe check that poo poo at the door so we don't have the mess in here too'

It is very, very, very important that I be able to post the poo poo you asked me not to post in this thread right here in this very thread instead of one of the thousand other threads that exist exactly for that kind of content.

Yes, it is. Politics is inescapable, touches every aspect of our lives, and the only ones who can ignore it are the ones responsible for the issues, ie, the wealthy. Banning politics would reduce this thread's content by a massive amount, if not kill it altogether.

I don't mind cutting back in the "BATHE IN THE BLOOD OF THE OLIGARCHS!" rhetoric -- even though I still feel that's an unreasonable request and something of an attack -- but as I've said before the banning of political speech will be limited to the mods deciding what does and does not constitute "political."

Honestly, I'm still worried they'll feel the same way about what is and isn't "CSPAM."

The previous two posts back to back seem to disagree on what "the poo poo you asked me not to post" is. I would like to know what the poo poo is that I am not supposed to post so I can not post it. (seriously, all my personal IOSM contributions have been my aunt being awful and political, I would like to know if this continues to be fair game even though it was poo poo like her politicizing a miscarriage of her own family)

Maybe cut out all the stuff that doesn't make sense in context about wanting to forget the world's ills if we mean what Chitoryu says, explicitly cut out politics if it's what Inceltown says.

They are attacking me, not you. I really don't get why I've been declared by the goon mind to be a bad poster, since I've made more constructive serious posts than most of the people have made posts at all. I post as I feel, and I make no claims that every post is as exhaustive. Frankly most of the time I go for the one liner because I know the poster hasn't read effortful posts that come before.

For my part all of the ownage hasn't actually seriously address my points in a way that isn't faceous or vacous, so I hope that people itt can actually take the time to read posts rather than make the same white noise dumb owns they're appearantly mentally abused and alienated by.

It seems like when it started this thread was a lot more aunts posting Minion memes and old mistaking Google's Facebook page for the search engine. Now it's probably 80% politics, which is a sign of the times because everything sucks right now, so that's a natural evolution. But when someone posts a "kill all men | cis | landlords | cops via guillotine" response to those, it's just white noise posting at this point. If you're worried a reply is going to be "CSPAMy", maybe just don't post at all? Not everyone has to respond to everything.

That said, I think this iteration of the thread has been doing pretty good with no big multi-page derails, so maybe everyone just keep doing what you're doing?

Horny is normally prohibited, that is true but horny + politics actually cancels out the no politics rule and all politics is inherently horny. It's the one loophole they didn't want you to find.

I remember when people would get up in arms about “Lottery of Babylon” posts, thinking they were legit and not realizing the gimmick. Is that much different then a “kill all cis-men?” post from T-Man, if they don’t like it, then don’t report it?

It’s LAB’s call and the forums aren’t a democracy or anything. I just don’t understand why anything specific is being called out, especially so generally that a lot of people are like “uhhhhh.” I’ve been following IOSM for probably 5-6 years, and it’s never been a problem before. I feel like some of this is people taking those comments too personally. V much a “Not ALL men!” reaction.

Belize, it's not very developed there, lots of wild spaces. It's not uncommon for them to run in front of your car. I never saw one, sadly. I might have been chased by one, or a cougar, those live there too. I was riding a bike down a dirt road in the forest just after dusk and there was a bunch of branches breaking and commotion in the brush beside me for a good minute, keeping pace. It stopped when I rode through a boggy area. I wouldn't suggest experiencing that, but I felt fairly safe in a moving truck bed.
