You are voting RM over airmax. So examine why you prefer constricted speech over free speech. Please. I am waiting.
Another strawman. I never said I will vote RM over Airmax. Will =/= Would in the English language in case you didn’t know.

So why Is RMs platform more convincing then Airmaxs
I never said it is. Another strawman.

Voting for RM is voting against free speech.You want to be a prideful douche I will call you out. Explain how voting for RM doesn't go against everything you claim you are for. Explain how you spent a giant fvcking hypocrite POS.
I said I would vote for RM over Max, not that I will. There’s a pretty big difference. I’m still a free agent in terms of voting. As I said earlier, all options are on the table.

Jan 6, the day we celebrate not formally charging hundreds of political trespassers for insurrection while also calling them insurrectionists.
I ask liberals at my university how many people are charged with insurrection and then show them the facts. Nothing like a big fat red pill down the throat

So why do you think free speech h should be restricted on DART?
I never said I did. This is a strawman my friend.

These guys (Lunatic and DuhHamurgler) abuse the election to make callout threads btw and this time it isn't targetting a candidate but a voter.
I don’t want this thread to be closed just to make it clear. Lunatic has every right to make this thread.

I haven’t endorsed RM yet so idk why you created this thread.
In our PMs I said I’d vote RM over Max but the option to not vote also lies open. Who knows, maybe RM becomes Hillary in the next few days and Max Romney seems far better

That may be true, having not followed their activities and bans with close scrutiny, I could not say.My blurred view on the situation though, is that they were not 'just,"banned for logically arguing their controversial viewpoints with facts."
Mesmer was banned for racism, but if you read his posts, they are backed up with facts or logic.

I'd say I believe in limited and variable free speech, rather than unlimited.
These people were banned for logically arguing their controversial viewpoints with facts.

That’s your opinion. In terms of free speech though, none of them should have been banned.

@Wylted
You bring up some fair points he should probably address. I'll wait for his response before finalizing any decisions.
To be Frank, nothing he could say would change my mind. I’m a believer in actions. And in this case, his inaction speaks louder than his words.

I will not be voting Airmax because I don’t believe he will be a champion of the people.
Where was he when all the people were being being banned unfairly including Wylted, Mesmer, and BrotherD. Where was he during the voting processes for Hall of Fame or MEEPs? Where was he during forum fights and mafia games?
Why should I as a voter believe that AirMax would uphold my views and free speech beliefs when he has done nothing on this site to promote it. Why should I believe that only the Presidency will allow him to attract users to the site. Why couldn’t he have done this before? Why does he have to show up to a site he hasn’t been active on for at least a year?
I know Airmax has experience from his days on DDO. I also know that he has good relations with the current mods. But why should I believe that my interests in free speech will override his relationships with mods that he’s had for years? Both Wylted and RM have been victims of bans. They both have skin in the game. What reason does Airmax have?
He says he will bring activity. Why couldn’t he do this before? Is it because of over-moderation? Well then name people he has brought to this site that have been banned? He nor his supporters have cited any examples of such users.
Why should I believe that Airmax will care about this site for the next year when he hasn’t even posted a word in a year prior to his nomination? Let’s be honest with ourselves. This is a popularity contest for him. He’s already called his contacts — some who also haven’t posted in months.
Why should I believe at all that he cares about this site. The answer is that I shouldn’t and neither should you.

Correct that’s where I found that it’s a Status Conference not a trial. There hasn’t been a trial date decided yet for Jose Padilla

Nvm I found it.
It’s a Status Conference not a Trial. There has been no Trial Date set as of yet.
Would you like to retract this statement: “Please identify one insurrectionist who is being held without a trial date- just flat out false.”

how do you know, QUANTIFIABLY, if someone is, in-fact, "a white supremacist" or not ?
He makes derogatory comments about African Americans with facts as well. Should they be banned?

@3RU7AL
my primary focus is on insuring all moderation decisions are based on QUANTIFIABLE and transparent rules
That wasn’t my question. I’ll ask you the same question I asked RM.
Should a white supremacist advocating for the inferiority of African Americans with facts and sources be banned?

Still no answer to my question from the candidate

I am surprised no one calls you out on it more. You've been doing it a long time.

What are your stances on free speech within the site?

Posted in:
Should be that you don't spread hate speech, I didn't say it should be bannable if you're just discussing an idea, very iffy tbph.
You literally said it should be banned when I asked you if a person who supports white supremacy backs it up with facts. They’re discussing an idea supported by facts. You’d ban that. Wylted wouldn’t. There’s no world where you believe in free speech more than Wylted if you support what I said above.

Harry and his friends might regularly protest how unfair such racial differences are but that doesn't change the fact that those racial difference translate into real power and ability. Racial differences are important sociologically and physiologically.
What’s emphasized is that your blood doesn’t make a difference on whether you’re a good wizard/witch or not
The most magical individuals are permitted to attend special private schools where they are taught to exploit their racially superior characteristics.
To prevent magical outbreaks that might harm others if left alone. Just look at all the harm Tom Riddle caused before Dumbledore brought him to Hogwarts
Most superior humans are discouraged from even interacting with inferior majority of humans.
There’s an entire department dedicated to muggle studies in the ministry of magic. Not to mention the Muggle PM knows about the community. Would you prefer a war between wizards/witches and muggles? Who would win that battle realistically? It’s for the safety of both groups of people.
The oldest families maintain great estates and enjoy the lifelong devoted servitude of a non-human but sentient race of house elves. Few muggles are depicted in any of the books and the top three most regularly depicted in the books are all horrible human beings- stupid, selfish, greedy, easily frightened.
And Harry Potter frees Dobby from the Malfoys because of how he’s treated. He doesn’t kill Kreacher either even though Kreacher is a clear supporter of Voldemort.
As for the Dursleys, that enmity comes from Petunia who was jealous of the fact her sister Lilly was gifted and she wasn’t. I think it’s also cannon that Dudley’s son is gifted.
As mentioned, the goblins of Gringotts are short, long nosed, big eared ugly humanoids with a seeming exclusive interest in money- John Stewart remarked just yesterday that the goblins were straght of illustratons from the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
Goblins have always been associated with money of practically every fictional story. I don’t know where it originates though.

Any follower of politics knows politicians only do something if it affects them.
Summer of Love and J6 are classic examples.
We shouldn’t fear politicians. Politicians should fear us. And if you support the standard of indefinitely jailing someone without a trial, that’s on you
Created:

I found it hilarious that when people start breaking stuff in the place they give power and hold influence over there’s a select committee created, hundreds thrown in jail still without a trial, and political outcries from both parties.
But when rioters destroy the property of other ordinary Americans, they instantly get released, politicians bail them out, and it is labeled a just cause.
My biggest takeaway is the same it has always been. Rules for thee but not for me.

Literally everyone can have good relations to them, I told Wylted it was easy to. I also know that when it comes down to it, they take what I say on board. Polytheist witch's situation has been helped by me already and I didn't even need president status to do so.
Insulting mods publically =/= good relationship with them
You can spin it however you want

Something the President has to be willing to do.
Contradictory to your message that you have a good relation with them when you openly insult them on forums

Only Mr. Mike (debateart.com account) can access that and I doubt he'll divulge it to them.They need to specifically ask him to read all your PMs anyway and you would easily tell Wylted on Discord or wherever.There is absolutely no world where you aren't using this to help Wylted.
