I don't understand this. How did Obama allow this colossal waste of financial and human resources (not to mention the deliberate fudging of metrics to make it seem like U.S. was winning the war? That's just...villain behavior. It's evil. Was all of Obama's image a lie? Is he the gigantic asshole these facts suggest?I mean, I get Bush and Trump doing this, but Obama's invovlement shocks me to my core. I thought of him as a good guy.

James' voice changed drastically and it wasn't as good.
Just listen between a current episode and like a 100th something episode from 2013. Around 2013 was the voice changing started to happen. He just sounds like a 40 year old man yelling.
“We were devoid of a fundamental understanding of Afghanistan — we didn’t know what we were doing,” Douglas Lute, a three-star Army general who served as the White House’s Afghan war czar during the Bush and Obama administrations, told government interviewers in 2015. He added: “What are we trying to do here? We didn’t have the foggiest notion of what we were undertaking.”
Obama is a black face for white supremacy and maintenance of the status quo, this Flint debacle was typical of the man. He was never an ally to the people in Flint, or to black America as a whole.

Got a feeling there will be an update on this where it turns out the poster was black
I am black. And my father's family is from Flint. Some of them still live there. Obama doesn't get a pass on this. It was unacceptable.

When are the Asian and Autism summits? As an anime fan, I feel like I have a lot to add to both.

He is probably as black as Enzom. He sounds like a obnoxious prick but I don’t find his post particularly racist.

Apharmd, a black person, getting banned for that post is bullshit
3 months ban for ‘racism’ on a black person that is levying criticism of Obama. It may be harsh criticism, but if anyone’s entitled to make it, it’s a black person who has personal stakes in the flint situation.What’s going on? Because this isn’t even the first questionable ban of the week.
I could understand a kneejerk ban reaction to Apharmd's post, but after he clarified he was black, I'm not sure what warranted three months. It would be nice to get some transparency on that.
Trying to figure out why Apharmd was banned? Was it just because he said the words black face? Does context not matter
This ban is fucking gross. White liberals love to shout about listening to black people until they have a single bad thing to say about one their favorite politicians.
that 3 month ban is nonsense.
A three month ban is pretty wild given the context

The Flint Michigan water crisis is absolutely a serious issue and should be discussed. However, due to the poor framing presented in the initial topic it is unlikely this thread will generate healthy conversation

Mods merged the threads but kept Bor Gullet's title, making it look like I don't know how to spell "disappointment."Absolutely disgusting
It's a shame BossAttack is banned right now.This thread was made for him.
That's what happens when you troll
Didn't he use to beat one of his wives?I'm just bringing this up now before someone else throws it out there. BDW is a cool dude, let old shit die.
Basically, this is not a safe forum to let yourself be vulnerable. A good chunk of posters aren't interested in helping you, they just want to be entertained and dissect each post the OP makes in an attempt to cause a thread backfire. It's deeply toxic, I've complained about it before, submitted several warnings and was deeply disappointed when the moderation team locked some of those threads without a word and also didn't do any bans. I am hoping (via B-Dubs post) that this will be addressed better in the future.
QuoteWhat does it mean to “speak over” someone on a message board? In real life, one speaks over someone by interrupting them and talking louder than them. Since neither of those are possible on a message board, where one can make a post as long as one likes there is no such thing as loudness, how does one violate this rule?ExampleTransperson: Here's why comment xyz is transphobic and offensive.Asshole: Here's why that doesn't matter as much as the way I feel.

As unfortunate as it is ResetEra is not a safe platform to talk about yourself having a mental illness or to talk about someone in the public eye who suffers from it. A lot of users do not wish to help you or see someone for whats actually going on (not everyone but easily the majority), Mods have never shown up at best they just lock the thread until a new one is made because the person kills themselves in which then you see them post "RIP".Until something unfortunately happens where those threads pop up again and we see mods actually do something, the community actually shift away from blaming and instead understanding I personally wouldnt ever suggest this forum as your first means of being open.
I'm not trying to steal focus here from the very legitimate concerns of Minority ERA and LGBTQ+ Era, but I would like to say that the increased focus on moderation going forward also definitely needs to apply to the Gaming side of the house. There are a number of gaming-related topics that bring out their own dedicated cadres of shitposters from post 1 and while staff posts do eventually show up actual warnings and bans are few and far between. Take a look at any thread regarding a Jim Sterling video, the Epic Game Store, or Star Citizen, and you'll find the same posters every time mucking up the threads with the same baseless arguments. It drives off actual discussion and turns threads into piles of flung dung.
It’s fun seeing people with no self-awareness reacting negatively to these policy changes.If you look at these policies and think “great, now I can’t post what I want anymore”, then guess what? You’re part of the problem, not an innocent caught in the crossfire.
