What did he do to warrant a ban? He's an incomprehensibly retarded leftist normie but I've never seen him do anything even remotely rule breaking.

She advocated for the torture and murder of Tucker Carlson. This is just one example. https://ibb.co/1r2dy1R

Lol I always viewed Socks as just your standard issue shitlib cuck, the fact Tucker Carlson is able to drive shitlibs like him to homicidal levels of rage is hilarious. Carlson isnt even alt lite, he's just a boring Patrick Buchanan style mainstream conservative, and yet that is enough to be labled the next Hitler in the shitlib mind.

I think that's the point. Carlson has mainstream appeal and platforms people that disenchanted leftists/democrats listen to, like Dore and Gabbard. People like socks probably don't hate Carlson as much for his politics as they do for the threat he poses to the establishment narrative and/or Democratic party solidarity.

    /gently pats you on the head as he looks you up and down./ Throwing around that "misinformation" trope quite lightly.... aren't we, Boy? Don't "Carlson and FOX" us here, noob. I don't think you know who you're talking to.

        idk what this is about but i definitely don't agree with anyone being mad enough about whatever it is to write a wall of text rant about it

        Socks went around spreading similar misinformation. I caught her claiming Brian Sicknick was stabbed with a flagpole. I asked her for a source on that and she produced nothing.

        She also claimed Sicknick was tortured by Trump rioters and died of injuries, but an autopsy found no evidence Sicknick had an allergic reaction to chemicals or any internal or external injuries, according to the medical examiner.

        Socks created the same problems by spreading fake news and half truths from business insider on saidit. She also insulted people when called out on her bullshit, dragging down the pyramid of debate. I also speculate she was a misandrist.

            Yup, I just banned it, 3JOH22A was definitely a socks alt account. Saying the exact same phrases and words, coming out of the woodwork after months of inactivity, throwing threats my way and harassing users...

            Hilariously I even checked the user admin notes, and six MONTHS ago, soundsituation marked the account as "probably a socks alt".

            Obvious alt is obvious.

            Misinfornation from users like socks is dangerous.

            If he was banned for this then that's some Reddit-like bullshit. Is this a free speech site or not?

            Saidit doesn't allow advocating violence, and he was repeatedly advocating open and detailed violence against a specific person which is federally illegal.

            Can't say I know the context in this situation, but surely you can't take everything seriously? Is there no space for nuance? Stuff like that could be explained like a fantasy in one's head, something you don't seriously pay attention to.

            If I say "someone should shoot Putin in the head", would I be breaking the rules too?

            Even if a joke or non-serious, you'll get threats of a ban by m7 and other admins. That's why I quit using this site.

              Did you read her comments? She was sick in the head with deranged anger fantasies about some fox news journalist. This ban might encourage her to get some psychological help.

                He didn't care about the rules in the first place, that's why he got banned...

                  Socks never told me her preferred pronouns. It would be sexist to default to "he". Can you provide a source for socks' preferred pronouns? If so, I would be glad to use them.

                  This site has rules. Socks broke them, repeatedly, was warned, then continued to break the rules.

                  Exactly. Saidit is already very liberal when it comes to free speech but it still has rules. Socks kept breaking them and paid the price.

                    Weekend saiditors, lol.

                    Where's the commitment to arguing with strangers on the internet about things neither of you have any influence over?

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

                    Weekend saiditors my ass. There's hardly ever any activity on the weekends. People are only on here when they're supposed to be working.

                      I never asked the admins to permanently ban socks. I reported a rule violation. The ban was their call.

                      I never asked the admins to permanently ban socks

                      These right here are some weasel words. The most recent several dozen comments are you making a mountain out of a molehill. You technically didn't directly ask for the ban, but it was what you were hoping for.

                      I think socks should be allowed back on saidit. I think a temporary ban along with an agreement to follow the rules in the future would have been more appropriate, but I'm not an admin.

                      Just like AHS is just monitoring "hate subs".

                      Not really. Socks hasn't been banned before, just told off, so that's what most people reporting him would have expected.

                      Talk to Chipit, he can give you retarded arguments.

                      Many of us have different opinions if you'd bother to notice.

                      You're right. A permanent ban was probably not warranted. I would be ok with socks coming back at some point, but not my call. I didn't ban her, the admins did.

                        Advocating violence is not allowed on saidit, you've been banned. Alternate accounts for banned accounts are also not allowed.

                        He did say Tucker Carlson should be killed.

                        Might have been that.
