Trump will win 2020 as the Democrats will struggle to find a true opposition to him.

Like I said, I have no interest in watching it. I just like the extent to which the Internet nowadays has a vast influence on pop culture and this makes for a good meme. No other aspect of the movie will reel me in.

Yeah I'm not going to watch it, but I'll give credit where it's due and admire the director for trying to please the fans.

Saw this.
He looks like if an anorexic rocket raccoon (with a few facial features of baby groot) was spray painted blue. Look it up for yourself and tell me this isn't somewhat accurate.
It saddens me to think about what their runner-up choices were for music. Who let the dogs out? Straight Outta Compton?

I would advise not romanticizing what you perceive as feuds or rivalries on a debate website. It's what I realized some time ago...

hey you're back. sad you left the discord team.
Not really. This site and the discord has very little to offer since they are obviously contingent on user activity.

Evidently, a select few could not contain their menstrual cycles over the slightest indication/misinterpretation of negative thoughts coming their way, so I have no intentions of recommitting to this community. I also was a corruptevilracistfuckwitnazibastardcocksuckingcunt with little to nobody to rule as a discord mod so I have lost my part here.

This might not only be the most hypocritical thing that he has said in "site history", but also the most destructive to his consistent science of deduction.

What a spectacle... so many elections in "debate site history" to contend with are being toppled here...

In addition to what I wrote above, who is most likely to supplant Biden as the Democratic frontrunner (should he choose to run), or at least give him a run for his money? (Even if any semblance of the "likelihood" is very meager.) What do some of these runner-up candidates have to do to get within striking distance of Biden?

Are you still fond of Kamala Harris? I myself think she is a disingenuous, deplorable dirt bag, and by a far stretch the worst of the Democratic bunch given what's come up about her recently.

@Wylted
For example, saying the n-word should not require DART mod intervention, especially when the intent was not harmful. (Yes this was an actual event. I said the n-word without a pass.)
Worst case scenario should be that the head discord mod tells me, a lesser mod, to stop.

@Wylted
Perhaps, but nobody cares about any form of punishment in the discord as much as they do if the same is carried out here.
The mod of discord hasn't had to ban/kick anyone yet, so if the issue is left alone then it can become a "loophole" space for members who indulge in doxxing or behavior that is just as lamentable. I don't think behavior on discord should be reprimanded to the extent that it is on DART, but a slap on the wrist simply will not do for when members drastically cross the line.

The members are voting against the censorship anyhow, and this trend will continue.

Why should your insulting of another user be on public display if it's severe enough to get warned and punished for depending on previous actions
The problem is that it wouldn't have to be severe, and nothing here says that previous misconduct would need to occur for deletion. I could absolutely be wrong, but the inasmuch as it is vague, it raises a concerning issue.
So, what's your view on child pornography?
Child porn should be censored. I despise the mere notion of pedophilia and a child being forced into sexual acts, or any depiction of such.
I didn't intend to make some universal statement on internet censorship though, and tried to avoid that by not saying "muh free speech". If a post suggests that somebody should commit suicide, then it ought to be removed. I do not sit with the idea that anybody who exhanges even the mildest insult should be treated as nefarious enough to have their post removed.

The outcome is discernable nonetheless, which is what I meant to convey. Generally, people here are not both morally and intellectually deficient enough to appoint censorship.
It is not just as strict if you are censored btw...
You don't get banned right off the bat for saying "stupid", but it would sure as hell get deleted in the scenario that enough of us voted "yes" for #3.

The moral good and intellectually adequate will vote for a favorable outcome. It's common knowledge that people will advocate for anything that sustains their liberty in speaking over a rule that severely caps said liberty.

Anyone with a few functioning brain cells should (and frankly, will) vote "No" for #3. Clearly, Mike has aspirations for expanding the userbase beyond the core DDO users, and to turn this site into just another "safe space" for sensitive people will surely drive newcomers away. That said, newcomers are very likely to be adults given the aforementioned communities (See Mike's thread), or at the very least mature, but it is incontestable that some of the potential newcomers among others will call others "stupid" at some point.
I feel that the current rules are already strict enough, why add insult to injury?
And given that #3 should be no, #1 should be yes so that toxic members cannot find "loopholes" such as doxxing in the discord because "it wasn't a rule to begin with."
#2 is another strong no, and not just for humiliation's sake, but also because we already have a very clear indicator of who is banned from one click on somebody's profile. If we should have the "name slash", then extending the public shaming to the log is pointless. If we shouldn't, then features that bring about humiliation should be unacceptable across the board.

I had a particular Ben Shapiro video in mind, but first I must ask a question...
What do you think about the tenants of a social democracy? (Or "democratic socialism" as some modern leftists label it.)

@coal
I recall asking you this question earlier in the thread, but the upshot of it was you stating you would get in Ben Shapiro's pants, so I will remold the question:
What do you think of Ben Shapiro as a commentator/speaker? As a liberal what do you think he gets wrong? What does he get right?
