The hell are you talking about? How does ISIS and Al Qaeda being jewish funded and organised mean Arabs are too stupid to organise themselves?

Hezbollah is organised by Arabs and they do amazing work. The Syrian government also. In WW2 many Arabs contributed in the fight against Jewry/capitalism. The Algerians liberated themselves from the French. The Palestinian resistance under Al Husseini, Nasser's Egypt, Gaddafi's Libya, Saddam's Iraq etc. Arabs have been some of the greatest fighters against the evil of jewry and capitalism in the world.

/u/Markimus please think of the Pyramid of Debate when you comment, and if you are going up or down it. Please don't drag discussion down on the Pyramid of Debate.

My comment is perfectly fine. He was the one randomly insulting me saying I hate Arabs and I refuted that Ad Hominem with actual substance.

It's clear as day that this has nothing to do with the Holy Pyramid but you have some kind of petty grievance with what I said. Just be honest and say you want to protect jews from criticism lol.


/u/d3rr /u/magnora7, what say you? Am I in violation of the rules for refuting a random accusation that I'm racist against Arabs?

More importantly than this weirdo powertripper's petty grievance, did you just implement a firewall rule or something? I get Cloudflare error 1020 now since like 20 minutes ago. I have to use a VPN to get on the site now. I've tried ipconfig /release and /renew to change my IP address, and deleted my cookies and shit but nothing has changed it.

You can't call saidittors retards, AXXA did good work here

[–]Markimus 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (19 children)

So why not put an automod filter for no-no words?

Which words am I allowed to respond to someone who insults me? When people make unsubstantiated, completely nonsensical attacks on your character it clearly shows a lack of intelligence so retard seems quite fitting in my opinion. If that's just too scary for you would you prefer moron? Idiot? Which word should I have used to not upset the jannies? Or am I supposed to just let people insult me willy nilly and never respond to it because the admins have arbitrarily decided to take a specific side?

No ad hominems against your fellow saidittors are allowed https://saidit.net/s/SaidIt/comments/j1/the_saiditnet_terms_and_content_policy/

Ad hominem means "You're wrong because you're retarded", "You're wrong because you're racist" or "You're wrong because you're white male" or "You're wrong because you're X".

Statement like "[insert an actual argument here], retard" is not an ad hominem.

Original comment is much closer to ad hominem than Markimus' response.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

What about this one?

The hell are you talking about retard?

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Could let admins edit posts, then offensive words could simply be removed, preserve the overall content, and avoid conflict. Of course there's the danger an admin could simply start destroying content either en masse, subversively throughout the years, or simply through good intentions.

Admin edits would obviously have to be marked too.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

That sounds like a quick path to a Spez nation. But I do like the idea that admins should re-post whatever they remove with the offending section removed.

But this is all squeezing blood out of a turnip.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Any why are you whining so fucking hard about a warning that got handed out at the end of the internet?

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I just saw the reply, and I often see people misusing the term ad hominem.

[–]Markimus 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (11 children)

Fantastic! So where is jet199's warning? My use of an insult was merely in response to him attacking me first, if he had not attacked me my rule-breaking comment wouldn't even exist. It's a classic case of self defence, and then the victim being blamed; feels like the UK legal system over here.

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

He didn't call you a retard or a racist did he? He implied you were racist with an argument. We battle with arguments here, not insults.

My comment

Al Qaeda don't attack jews. Like antifa and ISIS, they're organised by jews.

His comment

It's cute you have so much racism towards Arabs you think they can't organise a single thing for themselves.

There's no implication or argument there. He literally just insulted me based on nothing. My comment didn't disparage Arabs whatsoever. There's really no reason to lie about this, bizarre.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Don't call people retards. It's as simple as that. If you can't handle this or understand this, then you are on the wrong site.

Do you believe in the equality of all races? Do you believe all races can integrate and intermarry?

[–]Markimus 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

You realise how stupid this is? You're saying if one can be subjectively deemed to fit a slur then it's ok to call them that slur.

By this logic I can subjectively deem him to be retarded and call him a retard and it doesn't break the rules. Do better.

[–]AXXA[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

I'm not subjectively deeming you anything. I'm asking you to state your beliefs so that I can understand. If you believe in the equality of all races then I will give a warning to jet199.

[–]AXXA[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

you have some kind of petty grievance with what I said

I don't. I found the substance of your comment interesting. Tulsi Gabbard has exposed how al Qaeda in Syria was armed by the CIA.

I was just asking you to comment without name calling.

[–]Markimus 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

I was just asking you to comment without name calling.

So why is only my name calling a problem? You can clearly see I was responding to his name calling.

His infraction is clearly worse than mine since his comment was literally only an insult and was completely random. So why am I a rule breaker but he isn't?

This has absolutely nothing to do with anything that was written in this thread. Here is the personal petty grievance you claimed you didn't have.

Ironically you're the one who acted racist in this comment. Just because someone has an Arabic name it doesn't mean they're an Islamic terrorist or part of 'Al Qaeda'.

The facts of this case show that this was a suicide by cop by a mentally ill homeless man. This had nothing to do with any kind of political/terrorist organisation. Your racism against Arabs and Muslims is what allowed you to be brainwashed by neocon media to believe it did.

[–]AXXA[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

My comment was based on the following information from the linked article. Is the information incorrect?

The terrorist demanded the release of Aafia Siddiqui from a federal prison in Texas. Siddiqui, a Pakistani neuroscientist suspected of having ties to al-Qaeda, was sentenced in 2010 to 86 years in prison for trying to kill US military officers while in custody in Afghanistan.

Siddiqui has also been called "Lady al Qaeda."

So then according to your logic, Darrell Brooks wasn't a terrorist either then, right?
