Tell Us Who Got Banned Thread Closed?

[Gameface]

The biggest annoyance for me is if I want to upload a song with some swears in it. I can usually find a radio version, but the video part is often not as good.

But how often do I even upload music videos (too often) and how often do I listen to music videos other people post (almost never)?

I haven't reported a Dutch post since he came back from his previous ban. But I will say that I have reported probably more than 20 posts by Dutch and either each report was a clear violation of board rules or was evidence of a pattern of behavior that was as a whole a violation of board rules.

I don't want to see people get banned.

I don't want to silence people I don't agree with.

Dutch was, as I believe Moe pointed out, intentionally obtuse. He was not engaging in honest discourse. He was not attempting to exchange ideas. I know this because I beat my head against a wall literally hundreds of times trying to have a real conversation with him. He was screaming his rather simplistic views at all of us, inserting them in threads they had little place, and repeating them ad nauseum. He frequently posted anti-female slurs, anti-LGBTQ... slurs, referred to Muslims as animals and barbarians several times, to the point that 90+% of his posts were pushing his hateful ideology.

I posted that he seemed to be an adherent of "The Red Pill" ideology. He made several direct references to having taken "TRP" and his views follow with theirs. TRP is a group who believes that men, in particular heterosexual caucasian men, have been put into an inferior position in our society. That men are actually disadvantaged. The initial draw to TRP is dating advice. Their dating advice borders on advocacy for rape and sexual assault, because men essentially have a right to express their sexual desires in highly aggressive and selfish ways, with no regard for the feelings or outcomes of women, who are generally just trying to manipulate and emasculate these poor men.

Anyway... As Dutch was basically just a mouthpiece for TRP propaganda, doing his very best to deliver his message without violating board rules or turning off potential recruits before they could be properly indoctrinated, I saw no value at all in his presence here. I saw no reason why Jason should allow him to continue to post here if he continued to disrespect the community and the forum rules.

Anyone who is interested in different views and misses Dutch's contribution, go to reddit subforum "The Red Pill" and you can learn all about anything Dutch was ever going to tell you. You're welcome!

When you say Dutch referred to Muslims as animals, are you talking about his simile he made about dogs marking trees in Jerusalem?

Again, I think people translate his posts in a way that makes them offensive. I'm not saying his simile was a good comparison. I'm saying he never called Muslims animals and defended and cleared it up too. Fact.

I don't know anything about "The Red Pill" and I'm not about to look up a creeper site like that. I never read a Dutch post that matched the sort of ideology you're talking about, but I'm certain I haven't come anywhere close to reading all of his posts. I did read a the post that I believe you are drawing the Muslim/animal comparison from, but I don't think it was nearly as offensive as you're making it sound. Wasn't he talking about the behavior of Muslims that conquer Christian/Jewish strongholds? Would you have any problem if someone called Vikings (who conquered, raped and pillaged) "animals?"

As was said earlier in this thread, I found some of his viewpoints interesting, even when I didn't agree with it. I found a lot of his posts entertaining. I thought he added to the discussion. I'm interested in hearing arguments from all over the political spectrum, whether I agree with them or not.

I just went back and read the thread where Dutch mentions something like they are like dogs peeing on trees. Afterwards, Dutch supports his post by giving references, dates, history, examples, and historical records that supported what he believed (basically Islam was trying to take Jerusalem by force with no merit.) I'm not an expert on Jerusalem. I know there is a lot of tension between Jews and Muslim there. Seeing that, if I remember correctly, Dutch is a Jew, it's not surprising to me that he's emotionally involved in discussions about it.

I think you read way too much into Dutch posts, GF.

He def leads right and likes to show it but he seems as if he was simply always looking to rile up those like GF with blanket statements which seem to me were always about 65% him/35% troll.

The way he conducted himself is 90% of my problem with him. You guys want to continue to focus on the degree of offensiveness. I'm was more concerned with his lack of manners and lack of honesty in the way he conversed.

I'm more focusing on what he actually said rather than what was interpreted by someone tbh.

I dont care if he is banned or not, I dont really read enough of his posts or really even know all of the message board rules. I am not sure how people get so many infractions, I have never got one.

I would not ban him based on what I have seen. He does post things that are racist, homophobic and so on but that is not a reason to ban him. But Dutch is always trying to troll and push his luck with every things he posts, like you said. His goal on here is to push people buttons even at his own expense of looking dumb. I doubt he is not surprised he got banned he tries to push everything to the edge.

Ultimately he brings nothing productive to the board so its pretty meh if he is gone. He does not provide a good argument for much. He is barely a Jazz fan as well. Although we have a handful of non Jazz fans and even non NBA fans that are on here posting a lot like Babe, which I guess isnt a reason to ban someone either.

It was pointless to communicate with him besides for entertainment value since he was happy to make himself look stupid to push buttons.

He was the only person on here to send me some silly death threat that he would come abort me since I was okay with abortion. Although that was back when negs were anonymous and he thought he could get away with it. I never reported it, just laughed. I assumed it was him and then we got to see who sent them later I could confirm it was him.

Siro and I occasionally text about cryptocurrencies. Log and I also IM but haven’t in a month or so. Think he said he wants to take a break from the site. I have no idea about WC. Just assumed he’s honing his basketball skills, the player he is.
