DOJ |OT| SUMMIT NOW SUMMIT NOW

I hope the blacks/moderation summit starts with a foreword by Slayven.

If the minutes from the summit contain the n-word (with a hard R), as a white man, should i read that aloud in my head or should I skip over that word. Also, would it be racist if the majority of people who read the minutes were white, or should we take noname's advice and refrain from reading the minutes as a way to show our non-racist intentions?

Don't want to be racist y'all.

This board needs a moderation summit with its black members asap.

My man Roy rolling in his grave rn.

Someone needs to posit at this summit that Reeeee needs more black moderators and then suggest Royalan be reinstated.

Huh? I don't understand. You mean Era needs to sit down and understand our concerns more in regards to very real & Black issues like this?

Similar to the TransEra discussion between moderation and members of the community I imagine. On common problems in threads and the elements that the community have to put up with that leads to members of it either shying away from threads about them and their issues, or having to endure a ream of dismissive, insulting or condescending comments. It was said that similar would be extended to other minority communities in the forum that have long-since been putting up with the same/similar, and a staff post detailing the changes enacted and proposals going forward is still pending.

So here's my thing about that and how it applies to this No Name thread. If they want to address how to handle obvious racism on the forum, they got to be ready to take the criticism.

It won't be a good decision and highly uncomfortable for anyone not Black. I and a lot of other people don't bother posting because of this. Even in this very thread I see it's like clockwork.

If the mods & Era wanna do Black folks better they know where we are.

Anyway No Name, speaks from a place of understanding. If white folks wanna say it's reverse racism, which doesn't exist because of societal power structures more power to them. I doubt they won't see a warning or ban about expressing that in this thread

That’s understandable. It’s not my place to suggest what solution would be appropriate. I’m only speaking to something that was set up regarding issues like that which I mentioned within threads around the trans community, it was within a private Discord and moderated by a third party that both sides trusted. FeistyBoots was a part of it and believe it was what she was referring to. Obviously the proof is in the pudding and that’s still largely in the oven, so we’ll see. Didn’t mean to imply the impetus for that should reside with yourself or others in the community, apologies if it came across that way.

Ummm excuse me, mods?  My trigger finger is getting a little itchy for a vERAfied Summit, and it'd be a shame to see this beautiful place burn the fuck down.

[stufte]

Anyone who uses alternate definitions of racism (power + prejudice) are so desperate to not be called racists and use it as some sort of shield against criticism. If you want to spout racist shit, own up to it and accept your racism and stop being a coward. We don't live 100 years ago. Racism isn't ONLY institutional or systemic. You dorks.

Sure.

Just like you weren't too concerned about boosting right wing talking points with the thousands of words you typed out attacking Ilhan Omar earlier this year.

Get the fuck out of here with that shit.

So all that bashing of m4a that goes on in poliera is a right wing talking point...? 🤔

Wow wait up a second. You’re telling me that the thread in it’s 10th iteration has a protection waver from a thread with 8000 posts since 2017 and that can be used sitewide to ban people for making posts that refer to PoliEra?

Cool seems balanced.

This was after it was (mis)reported that Hillary Clinton called Tulsi a Russian asset. It's an insane thing to have said. I guess I just don't get why we're still on this? Bernie has not spoken about Tulsi positively or other otherwise I think aside from this. Bernie has also not disavowed Buttigieg or Yang, despite disagreeing with them. I wouldn't read that as an endorsement.

Only if you're paying no attention at all

No it is insane. It's also improper. And frankly has only helped Tulsi's polling and fundraising so thanks.

ok boomer

Ah yes, the totally non-boomer McCarthyism take

"This whole Russia thing is a sham" is exceptionally boomer, friendo

while we're cleaning up antagonizing hostility

[benjipwns]

If the mods of ResetERA.com would commit to having regular summits with me I would not have to regularly assist them in moderation from here.

KetKat literally died so we could have tri-weekly summits.  Mods are cops.

I would be less worried about Biden if Harris is his VP. Sets her up for the nomination in 2024 (Beto as VP).

[benjipwns]

This thread is about Kamala Harris, not other members. Thank you.

Can I make a separate thread criticizing a lopsided moderation policy then?

SUMMIT NOW

[benjipwns]

meanwhile in PoliEra:

You know, it hit me today, all we have to do is win the presidency, the senate, eliminate the filibuster and eliminate the electoral college, and a Republican will never again win the presidency.

[benjipwns]

After the unwanted hug he gave Dave Weigel and now this, it really sements Yang as the ickiest candidate, which is really saying something with Biden also in the race.

I can’t believe this guy lasted longer than Kamala and Beto.

Are people still pretending he's a serious candidate?

Yea, you may as well cross him off the list now.

Boomers are gonna be freaking out.

As in the title, many a time I'll be at a stop sign waiting for traffic to pass, then a vehicle slows and brakes for me

I gesture not unlike this


Like...why are you breaking right of way for me lol. I am not special, I am just another vehicle on the road with the same rules applying

I was thinking of making a similar thread. This situation is frustrating:

I am heading towards a stop sign. I am pretty far away from it though. A car is stopped at the stop sign and it goes across my street path. They should just go. I’m nowhere near them and they have all the time to cross, and I should be stopping anyways. But they don’t go. They wait until I stop at the stop sign and then they just let me go. But if they just went, I could have not stopped or just slowed down.

oh, it begins, Official Sensitive Thread™ status

User Banned (2 Weeks): Dismissive Drive By Posting; Prior Ban for Similar Behavior

imagine being mad that people like your music.

User Banned (Duration Pending): Racist trolling

Wait, the audience isn't screaming racial slurs at her....they're singing along?

User Banned (1 Month): Dismissive commentary in a sensitive thread and history of similar behavior

Seems like she should ban white people from her shows. If she only wants minority attention, she should be prepared to make a lot less money, though. Still, if she has convictions that her music is not for white people, then she should stick to them.

A ban based on race?

User Banned (Duration Pending): False equivalence around race

Ban was the wrong word to use, since I don't think she could legally get away with that, but making damn sure white people aren't welcome is something she should be within her rights to do.

Really? Why?

Imagine if a male artist stated that he doesn't want women attending his shows because he makes man art. That just creates a contentious situation for absolutely no reason.

User banned (permanent): racist trolling, previously banned for dismissing racism and bigotry

Hey, I was already helping her and had no idea, nice.

User banned (1 month): hostility and dismissive commentary in a sensitive thread

I mean you do sound a bit pathetic

and you're a lazy piggy backer. explain something to me or fuck off people.
