Does Invoking Godwin's Law (calling a US official a Nazi) in a thread title or body of the OP violate Clean Start Rules?

[Foxfyre]

Yes! Opening posts in Zones 1 and 2 must abide by the Clean Start Rules.

I've been active on this site for 18 years and I know what Zone 1 is because it is labeled. But I've never known what is in Zone 2.

Zone 2 is every area not in Zone 1 or 3 (Badlands, Rubber Room, Flame Zone).
Basically these areas: US Discussion, Global Discussion, Commnunity, Hobbies

Perhaps it’s because the people who enforce the rules fail to act because they have their own bias?

Perish the thought!

Are you sure you are all thinking this through, folks?

Democrats on this site have a very difficult time communicating as is. What will happen if you take away all their favorite words?

I put it to the test this morning with one such thread and it was locked.....Good job mods!

Hopefully the days of members invoking such nonsense in Zone 1 or 2 threads is coming to a middle.

Which thread?

Which thread?

In the interest of decorum, I'd rather not call-out the OP.

You brought it up. Why would you do that and fail to reveal the thread?

The OP is not relevant.

 

[dblack]

If not, then, should it?

I'm pretty sure if I opened a thread with such and such politician/party is a ni**er or c**t I'd get slapped down hard and justifiably so.

Why is calling (or alluding to) the leaders of our country fascists and Nazis tolerated in an opening OP?

I thought Godwin's law was officially retired after 2016?

Mostly, this serves the proles to identify themselves as mindless followers engaging in group think instead of sentient adult humans.
