I was being flippant in response to something not worthy of a serious response.

Actually that has been implicitly equated to theft and murder. Which curiously also makes it a political issue.

However the purpose of the question was to potentially achieve better articulation of the specific moral accusations being made.

The moral faults of racism can be specifically articlutated, so which of these specific faults is equal or relevant to discussing ideas in a science, philosophy, or politics forum?

You got confused. There was never any question that Bruce could have faced no consequence at an earlier point.

Not sure why you got stuck on that.

I have clearly explained to you multiple times that I consider posting racist tripe makes one unfit to be a mod, even if you don't ban all the Mexican posters. I thought you said you had reached an understanding of my position. Clearly you need to reread.

OK, after Bruce failed to uphold that part of the arrangement, then what would you have rather seen happen?

Coming from you, I'll take that as a compliment. Never posted in SMP fwiw.

And considering how opinions get tossed around as truth around here, it migh be worth exploring how both kinds of statements impacted what happened.

Or not. Post a quip and just move on

Phone Booth was comparing the logic of the situations.

lets not claim Phone Booth was comparing some bad posts as mod to rape or murder.

Are you saying there had been an agreed arrangement?

You're getting confused again - are you on the phone?

The flippant response was to a silly point re Mat becoming aware of Bruce causing further trouble as a mod.

Mat was pretty clear that Bruce just needed to stop talking about this and then he would do nothing.

Not sure why you got stuck on that, we never disagreed that Bruce could have faced no consequence at an earlier point but that's not an agreed way forward like I was suggesting could have been achieved at the later stage if you had wanted to find a way forward (which you clearly didn't).

OH MAN I'M SO GLAD WE'RE DONE WITH THIS

What about your racism?

Damn, so not only is Wookie responsible for every single thing that happened to Bruce, he is also now solely responsible for the discussion I had with braves only two days ago in which he never participated in any way!

Wookie, what else are hiding from us that you need to take the blame for?

That is nonsense.

Remember excessive argumentation, mockery, derision, and accusation have all been identified.

On a related note, Specific moral positions against these kinds of behavior can be articulated.

Are you morally bothered by dehumanizing behavior?

Your arguments have been made by MrWookie numerous times over the past 5 years, at least. Our discussion really has no bearing other than repeating the company line. Almost every time MrWookie is present in one of these discussions, you are too as with fly making the same absurd arguments.

Based on that posted, MrWookie subscribes to my definition of stereotype....except he will change this definition at his leisure and when it suits his argument. So will you.

So do you have a link to those times?

eta: I'm impressed you've caught up on the past 5 years of forum history in only 2 days.

Are you doubting my claims of MrWookie believing whites are privileged?

We do not need another derail where you completely ignore the definition of a stereotype.

EDIT: I've been reading this forum for a few weeks....

Interesting to consider MrWookie has publicly proclaimed his opinions on racism are infallible.

What happens when a person who thinks and operates as if they have an infallible opinion actually has a rather weak, one-sided opinion excessively supported with accusation, derision, and mockery?

What happens if this person has authority? We can actually look. Well, Seems like a good spot to lose the opinion, lose the infallibility, and seek a better opinion.

I ignored your definition because it was universally regarded is idiotic nonsense.

However, I really do enjoy how often this topic turns into Lash Out At The Figurehead Who Doesn't Even Mod This Forum For Things He Had Nothing To Do With And Are Often Completely Unrelated To This Thread Topic As Well.

Two fundamental problems you have:

1. Not realizing its not my definition.
2. Not realizing some of the company you surround yourself with (the universal regarded part) here in politics have an equally fallible understanding of the issue. I mean, certainly because they agree with you does not make you right...right?

Deflection:

When you make a statement like that, you open yourself up to the criticism of being racist yourself, especially when there is empirical evidence. Yes, I know, you and others change or ignore the definition of racism and stereotype in order for it not to be racist which actually does not prove you all are not a racist, its just you manipulate and distort facts to assuage your own racism when it occurs and revert back to the standard understanding when its racism you do not like. People on Stormfront do this all the time as well, they are just as racist.

If you are incapable of understanding a dictionary and project your own nonsense onto a word, it becomes your definition.

Can you briefly elaborate on what exactly you believe the timeline of Wookie's actions was?

Racists hate MrWookie almost as much as they hate Mexicans.
