While I love legit, informational, open-minded arguments in general, there were a couple hate-speech attacks against a recent, Belgian/Jewish-themed post here that immediately smashed our #1 rule here ("Netiquette") to bits.
Those came from two individuals in particular (same instance), and disgusted both myself and my co-mod.
I want to remind everyone here-- for anyone new to this community, it's both common-sense and classic Netiquette to suggest that if one wants to argue hard, it's best to start with some politeness where possible.
The two banned can appeal, if they like. I'm not opposed to talking things out, assuming good-faith is involved.
I also want to clarify that the original comic by no means attempted to 'pick international sides.' It was in fact an attempt to depict internal strife between people within a small community. That, and nothing more.
EDIT: I've made some major revisions in my message above, seeking for better clarity. Thank you for re-reading.
Sorry no, you can´t claim some made up bullshit and then just nonchalantly move the goalposts to another planet when you get called out for it. You lied about pro-genocide propaganda being posted here and you should apologize to [email protected] for that.
