Tapatalk is hiding the content from all goofy's posts? That explains a lot!

(sorry just joking, feeling warm, and fuzzy towards you since you hoped I would survive Ebola)

Since that text does not appear in tapatalk, it made the post appear to have no content at all in tapatalk, which is why I deleted it at the time. Since it does in fact contain some content, I've undeleted it.

Sorry about the confusion.

Hey WN, I have a question: do you think Kelhus would make reasonable moderation decisions?

We watched about half of the 2001 Ken Burns series Jazz over the weekend, which somehow I hadn't seen before. Definitely highly recommended.

Here is the post you were responding:

Quote:

They've banned people for literally stating "learn to code". They banned me, when I was using the term in a context that was not directed at anyone. When they do that, they've stopped you from consuming my content. Which is okay, if you are a publisher like 2+2, but when you are operating under an exemption where you are conduit/platform, that's not okay. It's not really relevant what happens to the people who are banned, it's the fact they've restricted your access to viewing those banned people.

Why was I banned? It's located in the post above, which you quoted, and demanded an answer to, repeatedly. You asked this question at least three times, not aware the answer was in the very post that elicited the question. You claimed you stopped responding to me....that was lie as well. Our conversations stopped shortly after this discourse where I explained why I was no longer responding to you, but you lied that you stopped it, and lied about the reason.

Argle-bargle-schmargle. Here is the post you ignored, which was many hours and many posts before whatever you're now claiming. You're just lying now. Or maybe you have problems with recall caused by lack of sleep too? It does seem to impair your basic cognitive functions.

Right. So, citing posts I made long after you stopped responding to me for justification would be, very generously, disingenuous, wouldn't you say?

Some might say you are engaging in post hoc rationalisation, much like you do to defend cops in all the "cops murdering civillians" threads.

itshot, to most posters in this forum: "I have the exact same problem with you that I have with many posters in this forum and it's your fault. Sure, it may look like I am the constant in these shared experiences I keep having with different people, but nonetheless I will assert that the bad actor is you. Now I am going to plug my ears, la la la la la la"

lmao

UVA changes their logo because it included swords and on those swords - if you look closely - were serpentine handles and somebody knew/thought they referenced the serpentine walls people used to hide slaves - or something.

Wow.

This is the new leader for silliest PC issue ever.

It's a small, but important distinction to replace businessdude's wishy-washy "someone maybe thought" with a definitive "yes, they referenced campus walls that were built to hide slaves".

And once you acknowledge that - sure, seems fine to change the logo? What's sillier, them changing their logo to not glorify part of the school's racist history or you getting mad about it on an internet forum?

lol, I'm not mad, just amused at the depths these SJW go to in order to find these issue that 5 people in the world know about.

but yes, I'm sure the thoughts, energy, and money spent on this issue could be better spent a thousand different ways

Seems like it wasn't that big of a deal? People noticed, told the school, school was like "oh, good call, looks like we messed up" and fixed it. It's pretty clear that whatever energy was expended to do so hasn't sucked all the energy out of recent racial justice efforts.

But it seems like it's quite important to you that this be painted as some giant angry backlash that SJWs have spent most of their energy in the past 2 months working to overturn. Good luck with that!

So what's everyone's opinion on Joe Rogan here?

Watched my first two episodes...Dorian Yates and Cornel West and enjoyed them both.

You would like the recent one with Ronnie Coleman. He was still a cop while he was in the middle of winning Mr Olympias.

I'll have to check it out. I became a fan of bodybuilding when I was first introduced to Pumping Iron and enjoyed all the greats up till around the Mentzer Brothers.
