Or you could just take a leaf out of RatSkep's book and ban them and show them Nazis won't be tolerated instead of appeasing them. It's one thing to tolerate other viewpoints, it's another to tolerate the intolerable. We know where that leads.

Yes, it leads to people with perfectly reasonable viewpoints being silenced, until there are no views permitted outside of a narrow range of acceptable ones.

You think racial superiority and eugenics are reasonable viewpoints?

Fuck off.

The fact is we have 3 openly Nazi scum on this forum (Seth, Davedodo and Tyrant) who are being appeased when they should be sent packing. And I'm not interested in the view that we should argue against those with morally bankrupt views. You're only arguing in good conscience against those with no conscience.

Lol, what have you been smoking. I'm a biologist

Arrive here? Where the fuck do you think pretty much everyone here came from in the first place? We're pretty much all RatSkep refugees and this forum was created NOT to be an echo-chamber of RatSkep where people are banned for espousing unpopular opinions...or so I was told when I was invited here.

Unfortunately that's exactly what it's turning into, thanks to the biased and incompetent moderation (not) taking place.

This forum existed at least a year before ratskep.

This forum existed at least a year before ratskep.

Thus the "pretty much." The founders saw which way the RatSkep winds were blowing from the demise of RDF and built the lifeboat well ahead of time.

Pity the hull is now having holes drilled in it and is suffering from worms and rot.

Most of the posters here have either never posted on ratskep, or don't because they don't like it. This place is an offshoot of a particular forum on rd.net, not ratskep.

How did I know you were lying when you claimed to be a scientist....

Anyway, you can't be a very good supermodel because nobody's ever heard of you. Perhaps in your mind you think you are a supermodel, but I suspect the gin is to blame for that delusion.

You can all relax. The Ratz is back

Now bugger off!

I wouldn't describe any of those three as Nazis. Tyrannical is the nearest, and he seems to be a white supremacist, which is not quite the same thing.

Anyway, at no point did I say that racial superiority and eugenics were reasonable viewpoints. I merely pointed out that when you start off down the path of silencing the viewpoints of those you deem completely unacceptable, it very rarely ends there.

Yes, all three are Nazis. You're not paying attention.

Between Trump and Brexit, Nazis are making a comeback, and people are, yet again, standing aside and doing nothing, or making stupid jokes, until it's too late.

This thread needs more lolz and less dick stroking. If you want to do that we have a section of the forum set aside for you.

[keep it real]

I've had enough of ratskep for now. Ever since they banned Strontium Dog (my mate) for no reason at all it's been irking me. It's like fucking North Korea or Stalinist Russia and now the traffic there is so low 'cos they've banned so many people it's completely incestuous. The site owner never posts, there's no spirit....it's vacuous. So I'm here now, although I'm not as cool as the people that got banned from ratskep (my warning level is 0) at least I can cook my potatoes in peace over here.
