ShalomEveryone is a full of shit enemy of humanity, and I ask for them to be banned for perpetually sealioning, shilling, lying, and dragging down discussions (only the last is ban-worthy by site rules).

I hate to say it, Jason, but you've GIVEN socks the opportunity to be right and lecture you on proper saidit-iquette. No doubt, the ignominy of this is absolutely scathing. And while I agree with you that this site would be infinitely better off without the likes of u/socks and u/ShalomEveryone, I have to say that your take on this situation is hindering more than helping us all. Please stop.

Interesting point. Some of the users here have said the opposite, because disagreements can build conversations and debates. I have a list of users who've disagreed with the extreme right-wing propaganda on Saidit, and have left within a few months. Perhaps you could raise your comment as a question in /s/AskSaidit and see what happens. I think Saidit has potential as a site for political debate, partially because users here seem to be somewhat less extreme, and seem to be older, but it can't keep users who disagree with the right-wing party line. Still, it's not like patriots.win, which is insane, and has many users. Perhaps Saidit will remain as it has this past year. But for those who want Saidit to grow (/u/magnora7), they could discuss what you've mentioned. There are periods when this is a popular subject on Saidit.

I don't give a shit about socks or anything he says.

I can take it or leave it with you. Your ideas are yours. Sometimes you're good, sometimes very good, sometimes you're not at all. IMO. But no matter how much we've disagreed, you've never been ban-worthy.

I have to say that your take on this situation is hindering more than helping us all. Please stop.

Clearly convince me and I may.

Well if you were to make a post like this and argue that his material is overall of reprehensible quality and his "contributions" are overall quite negative, with a very objective, analytical, dry and flat tone to your post, I feel you may have obtained your wish. Because such is the way of saidit.net. It certainly isn't MY default way, as you well know, but for an idea to gain traction with the admins and the overall site, it really needs to conform, no matter how nauseating it may feel to take pains for "correctness" while dealing with a toxic troll.

Wishful thinking. Perhaps. Perhaps not. I could have aimed for more sterile and analytical over dramatically factual, but obviously I felt this was the better mode to impress the gravity of the situation more emphatically. I don't have time for bullshit anymore. None of us do.
