Point proven. Hey Rcade ... when you are you planning on him serve out 3 week suspensions? Or does that only apply to those with right leaning points of view?

Oh Eggohead, now you're putting words into RCade's mouth? Hmmmm. I think he can speak and act for himself without any input from oxygen-starved breakfast food.

But methinks your elevator doesn't quite reach as high as you think. Wishing someone is 'set on fire' isn't saying the speaker necessarily wants them assassinated. Fires happen all the time and people parish in them without anyone setting out to intentionally do it.

As I see it, wishing someone to be caught in a fire is no different than wishing someone perishes in a car accident or any other method short of murder. Funny you read it that way. Kinda reveals how your diseased-mind malfunctions, wouldn't you say?

BTW, as an aside, I want to ask you a question.

Can you point a post where I have joked about the murder of, well, anyone?

I might be mistaken, can't remember every post.

If you can't, then you are a liar.

You would then be a lying bitch.

It's bad for the country that Trump is assassinated.

It's good for the country that Trump dies.

Maybe an accident choking to death on a ham sandwich? Momma Cass style?

Lies and pushes known lies as the top dog on his own site.......that's just truly a bad person.

Have you always been a whiney little child?

What part of Red Meat for Yellow Dogs do you NOT understand?

What part of "If you don't like it here because _____, then leave" do you NOT understand? So-called "Truth Social" would certainly welcome you.

What part of "Leave and create your own blog"? do you NOT understand? Hey, your predecessors did that, why don't you? Then you'll be in control of moderation because, it is yours.

You're like the guest who was invited to dinner, then spends the entire time complaining about everything: the food, the table setting, the host.

Perhaps you should just keep your ignorant mouth shut when you feel the urge to criticize our host.

We're all here at his forbearance, and if you hate it so much, then leave or our host would be well within his rights to show you the door.

You're welcome, BellRinger.

Elon Musk cosplaying "Dark MAGA," Tiny Tim clutching his ukulele, along with designated "responsible person" Carrot Top burst into Steven Wright's bar on the Venice Beach Boardwalk("Steven Wright's Bar on the Venice Beach Boardwalk"), interrupting Hunter Thompson's monologue about the intersection of politics, theater, and the absurd which, up to that point, kept a pack of twitchy bikers at bay until, now, Musk pirouetted and squealed, "Pedos, you're all pedos, hee, hee, hee!"

So?

Despite his claim of "free speech," Elmo uses his platform/algorithms to limit the voices he he doesn't like.

Here's your challenge: This Sunday, around 11:00am, find an AME church and go inside and yell, "You people are stupid for not voting for Trump!"

When certain members of the congregation are throwing you out the door on your ass, yell back at them for being biased in their moderation of their church (hint: this inspite of these First Amendment protections: freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly).

Let us know how that turns out for you.

#31 | Posted by Hans at 2024-10-09 02:44 PM

Oh Goodie....a moderation argument.

LOL

It's a biased system

It's the right of the owner to have a biased system.

nobody disagrees with that. That's not what these arguments are ever about.

Here is what it's about....

"Show me where I posted the exact sentiment, that's there's no bias in the moderation here on the Retort.

I never once said that, liar."

You're hiding behind the fact you never claimed there isn't any bias...........but do you believe there is any bias?

Hans, do you believe that moderation (the actual implementation of moderation) here is biased or not? I don't give a ---- what you've claimed.

And why the ---- is Twoothy opening his fat stinky mouth on this subject?

He is the most protected poster in the history of the DR. Absolutely no exceptions. Him.

He committed the biggest sin possible on this site and the bossman allows him to post here. He should STFU for the rest of his miserable life on this subject.

While you might not give a ---- about what I have always said here on the Retort (that this is our host's platform and we're here at his forbearance), everything I've posted in this thread SCREAMS that the actual implementation of moderation is biased, and that our host has every right to moderate it however he chooses. This is his site, and is his to do with as he sees fit, including being "biased" in his maintenance of his personally-owned site.

As our friend, Rev Darko has said, "sweet Jesus' -------," I would have expected you to at least understand what I was saying. While it has been obvious that those on the right side of the aisle don't do nuance, I was under the delusion that you understood nuanced answers.

So, once again:

YES, the moderation here on the Retort is biased - Posted by Hans

#38 | Posted by Hans at 2024-10-09 03:29 PM

-So, yeah, I "went after" him for being a typical MAGAt.

Actually, you are bitching and moaning about the bitching and moaning.

Seems a little pointless.

which is why I pointed it out.

Complaining is 95% of the content on this site. But THAT complaining was especially troubling to you. Okay.

Now someone can accuse me of complaining about the complaining about the complaining.......so I guess we can stop this now.

But the issue of moderation is that people LIKE the fact it's biased until they're not.

Which is why a lot of folks don't post here anymore. They posted just like you.....defending it over and over.....and then BAM! they found themselves among the "moderated".....and then they stormed off in a huffy.

There's not a single social media site where there's any "unbiased" moderation. None, zilch. And to ignore that fact is enabling those who bitch and moan about "moderation."

And you seem to completely forget the lesson of PWZ:

The Political War Zone was born and promoted as a response to the supposedly fascist moderation policies on the Retort. In actuality, it was a cheap stunt for attention, driven by delusion, desperation, and -- most especially -- epic fail

"For Zitgrease the Retort is a stage where he can act out his drama. He likes the rough tough stuff because he was candy ass REMF. Passive aggressive in real life he picks a handle that suits his ego not his true persona. Want a laugh - Wrecks has a STALKER! Just like the movie stars...LOL...But this is all faux outrage. Zit is a liar and cheap shot artist who would do us all a favor if he would again and for the last time storm out of here and start another blog. Or just jump off a bridge." - OzarkAggie

In any 24 hours, you might find one or two dozen unique posters here. Occasionally, one or two others.

On other social media sites there is a basically unlimited number of unique posters (Twitter, FB, indieweb.social, Threads, Bluesky, IG).

A basic reality is that most posters would willingly choose sites where there are new and interesting points of view, coming at you daily.

Too nuanced for you?

#43 | Posted by Hans at 2024-10-09 04:00 PM

Posters who no longer post on the Retort:

Lastamerican, tontonmacoute, jestgettinalong, Rex_Buyt, Sniper, sniper, ihatethedotard, Heinrich, Spork, TK421, spork, nobiasposter101, wisgod, goatman

What do they all have in common?

Fair point.

I don't know...

#45 | Posted by eberly at 2024-10-09 04:08 PM

#44 is a list of people who have been thrown off of the Retort by our host.

They, too, bitched and moaned about "moderation." Even deceased, former posters (e.g.: Zatoichi and nullifidian) still have accounts here.

Those people don't.

This site belongs to our host. He can be as biased as he wants to be because he owns drudge.com (suck on that, Matt Drudge), and he pays for the servers and connectivity that brings the Retort to us, every day. Same with the owners of the other social media sites I mentioned earlier.

I understand and respect that. I accept that as the "price" for every social media site I frequent.

Why can't posters like "BellRinger" accept that fact, too?

Oh, and thank you for your kind comment about my #43.

It would be best if no one would mention assassinations even in jest. A peaceful society is a fine line that can be readily disturbed and broken, and corrupt leaders and anarchic schemers know it. Once broken all except a few will tragically regret it. But schemers will play us as they've done elsewhere. It is not far from reality to say historically the leftists have been the anarchist evildoers and activists.

I've publicly thanked RCADE over the years for providing a mostly free speech forum unlike most radical leftist forums, that still come to my mind, such as Democrat Underground, Huffington, Raw Story, and some others that I now try to forget. Most people do not despise or hate others until they are treated differently and with obvious bias. Democrats specialize in bias.

1) Once again, ZED believes firmly that killing political figures is very bad for the country, and he is against it.

2) But, if you research the matter, I was telling you two years ago that Trump's behaviors begged an assassination attempt.

3) Well, he got what he begged for.

4) Still think it would be a good thing for the country and the world if Trump died a natural death quickly. So does JD Vance.

#71 | Posted by Zed at 2024-10-10 07:02 PM

BTW I do not agree with 75% or more of the leftwing posters here including RCADE. The only thing I would vehemently oppose is loss of any of our freedoms and Bill of Rights and demand national sovereignty and border protection and USA first..
