I got banned for telling the guy posting Tucker Carlson on “Progressive Politics” that he’s a chickenshit coward because he couldn’t give a reason why he’s platforming Nazi shit and instead deflecting to a hundred other topics.

I’m not mad that I got banned, I was very rude to the guy, but it is pretty gross that they’re still promoting a reactionary white supremacist as “progressive politics.” I reported the post to the mod and got banned instead.

Oh well, that place has a history of hosting that kind of garbage anyway. No big loss.

    I already said I wasn’t mad about being banned, and I deserved it.

    And I wasn’t arguing, because he wasn’t. I asked why he posted it, and he deflected like a chickenshit coward.

    I’m pointing out here that there are moderation problems with the community claiming to be “progressive” while hosting Nazi propaganda.

      That was the point? That was an awful lot of complaining about why you were banned and not enough focus on what you say you’re trying to point out, which still doesn’t make sense given that posting a link does not automatically constitute support for said viewpoint. It’s a political forum meant for discussion. You dove straight into name calling from your top comment. Again, YDI.

      And until you can actually demonstrate a bad faith argument on either the poster or the community, saying someone is “chicken shit coward” for not wanting to engage someone who comes out of the gate swinging, you won’t convince me otherwise.

      As far as I’m concerned, your argument is lost based on your attitude.
