Is it time for mods to review prohibited words?

[Lisa558]

The three words I know that are prohibited are the n-word (reprehensible), the c-word (also reprehensible), and w-ie (sort of mild, but whatever).

But now that we’ve seen how the vile rhetoric the left uses against the right can gin up such hate that it results in a political murder, now might be the time to consider how the message board is allowing the hate level to spread and thus might also prohibit the following:

1) MAGATS - this of course is calling Trump supporters “maggots” and reminds me of how Farrakhan called the Jews “termites.”

2) NAZI - this awful accusation should not be allowed to be leveled against posters, and the word should be reserved for discussions about real Nazis

3) HITLER - same as above

4) Direct racist terms - posters should not be allowed to address blacks as “black boy” or “black man” or make reference to “your black ass.” In fairness, posters should not be allowed to address whites as “white boy” or say “your white ass.”

There could be more, but this would be a start.

Free speech.

 

[Lisa558]

Free speech.

1) Not if it incites murder.

2) You could also claim that saying n and c is free speech too, but those words are prohibited.

3) Free speech just means the govt can’t punish you. It doesn’t mean that a privately owned message board can’t try to maintain a higher level of human decency.

 

[Dogmaphobe]

The one word I want to see prohibited is "we".


If the hive-mind leftists had to use the word "I" to express their views, they might eventually turn into individuals.

 

[ozro]

I don't agree with prohibiting words.

As far as I know only the n word is banned.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

We don't decide the prohibited words.

Cracker..... I mentioned that in a thread and it came back *******.

I was wtf?

 

[Unkotare]

... and w-ie (sort of mild, but whatever).
...

What is that?

 

[Unkotare]

Maybe certain head cases who post here regularly could be limited to using "Nazi" say, three times a day. Some of these far-left loons try to work it into every ******* post.

 

[ReinyDays]

Haven't you got Reddit already? Or youtube, if it's not enough.

 

[Zincwarrior]

My ancient poodle says we should ban "cats" too.

How predictable from someone who is entirely unable to refute Zionist genocide and war mongering.

How about banning the following words:

1. "MUZZIES"- So popular with ignorant and brainwashed anti Islamic bigots.

2. "ANTI SEMITE" - Another desperate slur so frequently abused as to be absolutely meaningless. (1)

3. "HOLOCAUST DENIER" - Another meaningless buzzword coined by anti German bigots who can't refute the facts about history's most profitable and crassly exploited event.

4. "ISLAMO-NAZIS" - Just plain stupid.

------------------------------------------

Best of all, allow bigoted fools to demonstrate their hate filled ignorance by showing their inability to articulate an honest and civil rebuttal.

"Creating panic over a false accusation of antisemitism does nothing to stop real antisemitism from taking root."

False accusations of antisemitism

Creating panic over a false accusation of antisemitism does nothing to stop real antisemitism from taking root.

rabble.ca

EXCERPT "As one of the more public Jews in Canada, I have often experienced antisemitism at moments when Israel is in the news, but I have never experienced antisemitism in the Palestinian marches. In fact, this march as many others had a large contingent of Jews opposing Israel’s attacks on Gaza.

The rise in antisemitism pales in comparison to the anti-Palestinian attacks we’ve seen since October 7. Yet political leaders don’t seem concerned that meetings on Palestinian issues have been cancelled for no good reason, that students who want to speak out for Palestine have been threatened with sanctions and a few people feel they lost jobs or engagements because of their views. Yet there is little concern for incidents of anti-Palestinian racism expressed by those in power." CONTINUED

No, there are times where even the three prohibited words are called for.

Perhaps, but the fact remains that they’re disallowed on this site. So why not disallow other hateful rhetoric?

Has Mark Twain been banned or what? They'd give him seven lives for just Huckleberry Finn alone today in this self-inflicted politically correct madness you're living in.
