I gave you a warning because of what you posted, not because you were right and I didn’t like it.

It's a generalization, he's not threatening to kill anyone here.  

trust me i understand it and it's part of the reason we  tend to let things slide a bit in here. this is an emotional topic. i have lost friends and coworkers both vaxed and unvaxed. i am pro vax for people in the high risk zone but i also believe that is 100% a personal decision and should remain as such. The lockdowns and mandates as implemented are 100% dog and pony show useless from an infectious disease prevention aspect. Covid is not going away, china will not be held accountable whether it was intentional or negligent. No point in losing accounts over those arguments.

people need to vent and we need to provide space to do it.

We also need a place for both sides of the argument to present information. where it can be reviewed and discussed, not argued and fought over. At the end of the day by now everyones mind is made up on the vax side. nothing is going to sway anyone to the other side. crossing the rules here over this stuff is just not worth it. it's also not healthy and worth the ill will and emotional baggage folks will carry toward others around the site... case in point people stalking martin248 with screen caps and such. That is considered direct harassment by our rules even if they guy is a troll. that needs to stop. we have several members that do that in gd. Not only is it against the rules here it's honestly disturbing and weird.

We are a big community from all different walks of life. We need to understand that at least try to be civil with each other. We should be sharing information to help those that need it. not calling someone phizerbots and other things. that does nothing positive for the debate or the community and just fosters a toxic environment.

If this forum is just going to be used to push a single view in an echo chamber and insult anyone else with a different view point. why continue it? it's a toxic thing doing the site as a whole no good other than keeping things out of gd. thats NOT a threat that the forum is going to be closed or heavily censored just my opinion as a completely disinterested guy that has to deal with the problems here.

i am just gonna have to blunt here....

looking at your record here you are FAR from clean with coc issues. You really might want to tone it back and reflect on things. what you are posting here is a perfect example of what i am trying to discuss.

just stop.

that is not what he said or how it was intended and you know it.

this mentality IS the problem. you don't like his point of view so you latch onto to anything to demonize the other side.

your post in gd would have earned the same. it was insulting to other members here and 100% trolling to insult and disrupt things.

if you want to continue that behavior it's on you if you get removed from the forum or locked. If not have fun and enjoy the site. you have been here long enough to know the rules.
