    You have entire threads that focus solely on white people (ie Don Lemon and “white” Trump supporter thread). Yet you do nothing. What a joke.

    I also haven't removed the the posts about the black South Africans vs white South Africans.

    Simply being controversial isn't a problem. Don Lemon did say that, should we just not allow that to be discussed here?

    No action was taken against you for example for your pretty derogatory comments about Muslims.

    A lot gets let go and I said that from the beginning. You ruin the discussion for other people then I have to step in.

    The best advice I probably ever received was from my high school basketball coach. He was running us hard one day, very hard. Horses upon horses, with no end in sight. We were on the baseline, hands on our knees, breathing before we started the next one, and he said, just that one time: "Quit feeling sorry for yourself!" Hit me like the clear tone of a bell, and I still repeat it to myself when I'm down or feeling aggrieved or put upon.

    In Paradise Lost, never forget: the devil's motivation in leaving the realm of angels was his sense of injured merit.

    I realize the odds of this having any impact, but I thought it was worth a try. Cheers.

    What are your threads focusing solely on white people?

    A moderator who fails to moderate and who does not know the rules.

    My single thread on South Africa is based on sound data and grounded in reality. No where in the thread did I say it was a “blacks” vs “whites” discussion.

    Meanwhile you chide me for my comments on “Muslims”. Where in this thread’s original post was religion said to be off limits?

    Other than trying to provoke an argument I’m not even sure what your gripe is here

    I don’t have any. I have not made any threads focusing on a particular race.

    You have failed to enforce the rules on “race baiting” and now there are a litany of “race baiting” threads in the D&D. Your muted response is an acknowledgment of your approval for this behavior.

    This is rich, a few weeks ago you were complaining about youtube censorship and now you're whining about this? I guess it's cool for you as long as the speech attacks others or I guess if you agree with it.

    Yes, YouTube violated its policies when it banned people for their political beliefs. There were some nutjobs who truly deserved to go, but many others did not.

    We have the opposite here. We have rules and they are not being enforced.

    No, you have this all wrong. Youtube upheld its guidelines, which is to ban videos that it classifies as propaganda or hate speech.

    The guidelines are being upheld here as well but it is cute to see you get fussy about this since most of the threads you start are about race.

    Just look at all that evidence you brought. I think such baseless claims should be off limits as well.

    Well, I do have search and I could throw up your threads about the whites but I find it's not worth my time. Maybe you can just search your threads and eat some crow.

    I had to click "show ignored content" to figure out who was getting the attention. I can't say I was surprised. My ignore list continues to grow.
