I have a question for you all on how to interpret the phrase "breathing expert." Barney and Novice had a debate about whether Derek Chauvin is a racist. After I voted, I found out that my interpretation of a phrase in that debate is not as universal as I thought. So here's a quick question for you all.
Read the following paragraph from the debate.
"During the murder, DC was told 27 separate times by a breathing expert with 46 years’ experience, that the victim could not breath; the expert was African American, and DC wholly ignored the advice. Another breathing expert with 26 years’ experience (fellow officer Alexander Kueng) likewise advised DC that George Floyd no longer had a pulse, also an African American and was of course ignored [4]. Had DC respected superior knowledge when it comes from African Americans, he would not be in prison and George Floyd would still be alive."
Poll Questions:
1) Who are the breathing experts in question?
2) Does this paragraph imply that the breathing experts in question are medical professionals?
3) Is this a correct use of the term "breathing expert"?

RELIGION POLL #1: What is the best argument for/against the historicity of the resurrection of Jesus, and why?
Feel free to discuss below. I have been doing a lot of research into the matter recently.

All in the title. I've decided that if Jesus existed, he most likely resurrected.
But did Jesus exist at all? Is the whole thing myth, or is it history? Share.

In short, for about a week, there will be a few questions open for the community to vote on.
Voting for this poll will be closed at 12 AM PT (UTC -7) on June 19, 2020.
Even though this is a non-binding un-official MEEP, it is sanctioned by the mods and the results could influence moderation policies and the implementation of future site features.
About MEEP:
As seen in the moderation overview
The Questions:
Below is an enumerated list of the content to be voted on. A brief explanation of each question is included as well.
Subsection B1: The Chief and Deputy Moderators and Site Owner
- Conduct violations against the Chief Moderator, Deputy Moderator, and the Site Owner will not be enforced, barring certain exceptions
- Exceptions to PA.A1.SB.SbB1.PI are limited to:
- Plausible, repeated, or serious threats
- Hacking or attempted hacking
- Staff Impersonation
- Doxxing or attempted doxxing
- Life- or health-threatening cyberbullying
- Violating the privacy of PMs not related to issues of moderation
- "Yes" indicates agreement with the removal of the above clause in the new COC.
- "No" indicates disagreement with the removal of the above clause in the new COC.
2. Are you for or against mods being allowed to vote in future MEEPs? Note that there are more than two options for this question:
- "Yes1" indicates a preference for banning all moderators from voting on referendums.
- "Yes2" indicates a preference for banning the chief and deputy moderators from voting on referendums.
- "Yes3" indicates a preference for limiting the chief and deputy from voting, save for breaking stalemates.
- "No" indicates opposition to this refinement.
3. Are you for or against votes being reported on (and possibly removed) after the voting period is finished? Note that there are more than two options for this question:
- "Yes1" indicates a preference for votes being reported on (and possibly removed) regardless of whether or not the ratings are changed.
- "Yes2" indicates a preference for votes being reported on (and possibly removed) only if ratings will be changed to reflect vote changes.
- "No" indicates opposition to this refinement.
4. Are you for or against the implementation of a polling section in DART?
- "Yes" indicates a preference for the implementation of a polling section in DART.
- "No" indicates opposition to the implementation of a polling section in DART.
5. Are you for or against the implementation of advertisements on DART? Note that there are more than two options for this question:
- "Yes1" indicates a preference for the implementation of pop-up ads, video ads, static banners, and text ads (text ads are like with sponsored links on Google).
- "Yes2" indicates a preference for the implementation of video ads, static banners, and text ads.
- "Yes3" indicates a preference for the implementation of static banners and text ads.
- "Yes4" indicates a preference for the implementation of text ads only.
- "No" indicates opposition to the implementation of advertisements on DART.
Voting:
This poll will use the same voting system as the previous MEEP.
A vote could look like this:
- Yes,
- Yes1, (the 1 signifying a preference for variant 1)
- Yes.
Like this (the missing 2, counts it as abstaining that question):1. No, each change should be an individual question3. Yes, we shouldn't even have voting rules.Or even like this (a vote against 3, but abstaining from the others):Wrong direction for voting, so no.

Hey DART!
I'm planning to make an un-official MEEP/opinion poll to gather the community's stance on various questions that I have thought of and/or seen floating around in the forums. I am hoping that it will be posted sometime next week.
Even though this is a non-binding un-official MEEP, it is sanctioned by the mods and the results could influence moderation policies and the implementation of future site features.
In this thread, I will be previewing some of the questions to be voted on and discussed, as well as inviting all of you to suggest additional questions and refinements. Please note that there is no guarantee of any of the community-raised questions making it in.
Below are questions s I already intend to include:
1. Do you agree or disagree with the following clause in the new COC:
Removal of the harassing the moderators is ok rule (don’t worry, we’ll still have thick skin).
2. Are you for or against mods being allowed to vote in future MEEPs? Note that there are multiple options for this question:
- "Yes1" indicates a preference for banning all moderators from voting on referendums.
- "Yes2" indicates a preference for banning the chief and deputy moderators from voting on referendums.
- "Yes3" indicates a preference for limiting the chief and deputy from voting, save for breaking stalemates.
- "No" indicates opposition to this refinement.
3. Are you for or against votes being reported on (and possibly removed) after the voting period is finished?
4. Are you for or against the implementation of a DDO-esque polling section in DART?
Again, feel free to make any suggestions!
