It's just a discussion, not a campaign.

For it to work, would require a process. You slowly reduce moderation while promoting a culture of moderation, everyone is essentially a moderator but can only moderate with words or ignoring users. It would require more people to intervene, a cultural change, one that fosters much needed social skills here. It would take a lot of work, admittedly, but it would create a better community.

Yes, no one gets raped or killed anymore @integral . Brilliant, never thought of that.

https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-730393 Does Israel still discriminate against Mizrahi Jews? Feb 4, 2023 — “There is a clear divide that is systematically maintained in all areas of life, between ultra-Orthodox Jews of Mizrahi and Ashkenazi descent. When the High Court of Justice recently overturned the ministerial appointment of haredi Shas leader Arye Deri, a crowd of hundreds of Shas supporters gathered outside his home to express their dismay over the ruling. Among the chants were claims that the High Court judges – all Jews of Ashkenazi descent – were once again discriminating against Jews of Mizrahi descent." "Benjamin Netanyahu's father was born Benzion Mileikowsky. He was a Polish-born Jewish historian who later changed his family's last name to Netanyahu after immigrating to Palestine in 1920."

We're just having a discussion, it's not like we're rioting. Jesus Monster Energy trying to have a philosohpical discussion What the moderators feel he's saying

Because you don't understand what's being discussed, you keep on going on about emptying, we're talking about how dialogue is moderated. I'm not suggesting we'll be nicer if we're unmoderated, that's your delusion, fake niceties are unnecessary and impediments. The reactions you're seeing in this thread alone highlight the lack of basic social understanding as kindergarteners say "words will never hurt me", in an "advanced" forum lol. Yes it's generally immature to name call, but what happens in public when someone calls you a name, you call the police?

The irony of Israel's current view toward Palestinian revolt, and why Rome originally removed jews from Judea "Rome's removal of Jews from Judea was primarily a response to persistent, intense rebellions (notably 70 AD and 132–136 AD), which Romans viewed as a threat to imperial security and authority. After crushing these revolts, Romans enacted mass enslavement, executions, and bans from Jerusalem—particularly after the Bar Kochba revolt. "

@Joseph Maynorwas banned for like 2 years, lol.?!?

See how easy that is, good job 🌟

Contemplate(another passive aggressive go to, here) context OP is talking about an advanced forum

They're not, that's just cowardice programming you believe. The emotions you're feeling, they can't hurt you @vibv YOU are their master. They're literally just symbol drawings and sounds. This is the aversion that people are clinging to with moderation, the OP was speaking about an advanced forum, not a reddit gaming forum.

I'm arguing against moderation. What are you afraid of, someone reaching through your screen, THEY'RE WORDS.

Oh, I wasn't being rude. I'm not sure how you came to that, what offended you?

We know There's not infinite idiots that follow Leo. They will learn or leave, no way they stick around too long. Moderation builds up a dependence, rather than exercising the users abilities to filter idiocy, infantilizing, protecting weak little cubs(we're...... ALL adults)

Then they'll learn sOmEtHiNg!@#!$@!!!! This is a place of knowledge, not a gaming forum. Moderation infantilizes and fosters idiocy, like what you're currently displaying.

Again, just more passive aggression, which is a result from immature moderation. This low iq behavior is fostered here. No explanation, no substance, just passive aggression, WHICH IS GREAT, RIGHT KIDS?

See, Look at this passive aggressive attack. No substance, no explanation. And this bad behavior is let to go be reinforced and spread like incel herpes by moderating anyone calling out the stupidity without going into a wasteful diatribe. You moderate specific words like they have magical power, it's immature like a little kid "YOU SAID A CURSE WORD!"

Theres 2 likely scenarios idiot attacks smart person person attacks idiot Smart people arent going to attack eachother. If an idiot attacks a smart person, theres no harm, because a smart person will easily let it pass. The idiot learns that the words have no power, and learns to alter their behavior. Moderating this reinforces a bad behavior, they elicit a response, acknowledgement, which is all the idiot is seeking. If a smart person attacks an idiot, they probably need it, and can learn from it. If idiots attack eachother, they'll both leave eventually. Win-win-win The moderation here concentrates the idiots here, you shelter idiots and prevent them from learning, then you just eventually ban them when a moderator has an emotional episode.

It's the people that want it moderated that can't manage their emotions. They're words, made up sounds, made up meanings.

Make them food, help them with basic things, go on walks with them, comfort them. I wouldn't say anything.

Stress also does it

I think that if European Israel never existed, it's possible Iran would still be a democracy, and the middle east would be more like Turkiye. And we'd be less dependant on oil already.

Remove the Europe relationship and the ability to genocide leaves as well. "Benjamin Netanyahu is an Israeli politician of Ashkenazi Jewish descent, born to Polish-born parents in 1949"

So now what would a low quality poster like me do if you don't respond to me? Keep having your high quality discussion and ice out the idiots, they'll leave. It's self moderating, you don't even have to think about it, just don't engage with those you wish not to engage with. Learn to regulate your own emotions instead of relying on others/moderators. This isn't even advanced, it's a basic social skill. Meanwhile, the most ignorant users are who need this forum the most and learn the most.
