Fiosfan Banned for his Personal Opinion

Mods, can I give this guy the historical and personal insight to demonstrate how incredibly wrong he is, or is that saved for another forum?

I mean -- he keeps posting this stuff ...

 

The source you posted is not even remotely accurate or fair. I read the economist and it is certainly not unbiased. Same with a number of other sources. That is a chart that was developed by a liberal to debunk the "liberal media" theory.

 

So if I'm allowed to report, I'll make sure he sees it, too.

 

If the Guardian were as right-wing as the NY Times I would stop reading it.

 

So the President, who's daughter and closest advisors are jewish, has appointed a number of Jewish people to key positions, and has reversed the anti-israel/pro-iranian agenda of the previous administration, is anti-Semitic?

But yea, great, you took one irrelevant comment completely out of context and use it as "fact" to support your position. Good job


The President is certainly a flawed person, but anti-Semitism is certainly not among his flaws. If you can't see that, then you are not qualified to have an adult conversation on any political topic.

 

So punish him for a post directed at another member of the board. Punishing him for his sig line is ridiculous, especially when you're claiming a word has a different meaning when used by him than in common usage. If you think he's dogwhistling, remember only the dogs hear the whistle.

 

For the record, I get notifications of alerts about various posts and posters. I didn't see anything about Fiosfan before his ban. So whatever discussion there was had a limited audience.

 

Maybe so, but so far its the only source about bias in media posted in this thread. As such, it will be the one I'm relying on over various poster's beliefs. The plural of anecdote is not data.

 

Assuming the "liberal media" theory is correct, does that mean that the media is turning the country liberal, or is it simply that the media reflects the thoughts and beliefs of the average American?

Having Anne Coulter and Alex Jones on the "non-liberal" side, probably doesn't help.

 

Lol. It even has the Washington post in the neutral column. C'mon man, you gotta be able to see when something is bullshit.

 

Seb Gorka. Steve Bannon. Stephen Miller.

It’s like this article.

I don't care to go to Stormfront so I'll stipulate you're entirely correct about how they use the term "globalists". My response is so what? It's just another thing Nazis are wrong about. The most prominent globalists in the world today are people like Barack Obama, Angela Merkel, and Xi Jinping. None of whom are Jewish. I'm not going to let Nazis define how a common word is used. More to the point, you seem to be calling Fiosfan a Nazi based on his use of the word. You'd need a lot more evidence than this.

 

Really? You think several liberals agreeing with each other makes something true?

 

Ok. You are obviously not interested enough to have a serious discussion.

 

What is your problem? How many times have people said he wasn’t banned merely for the sig. it was because of his reaction in the discussion of his sig.

It’s always a good clue that an argument is weak when people have to lie* to make it.

*I’m hesitant to use this word, but my God, we’re on page 5 now. There’s no way you can’t know, by this point, that you’re lying.

 

Yeah, now we'll be told that complaining about Hollywood or Wall Street is somehow antisemitic.

 

2 And Trump was right about point 2. The rally was called something like "Unite the right" and had various groups. Some were Nazis and Klansmen. Some were just there to protest removing the Robert E Lee statue. There were good and bad people on both sides.

 

Are you unaware of the consistent survey finding among reporters, editors, and producers that they lean left of center? Trump got 46% of the overall vote. Do you think he got anywhere close to that among media workers?

See the polling of Lichter and Rothman for evidence.

 

I'm noticing that one side is saying "Here's the problem and here are sources to back my claims up" and the other side is saying "No, you're wrong and the sources are wrong" without any other sources to back it up. Just something to think about, both in deciding who might be right and in the style of debate being employed.

 

Yes, he refused to change his sig line because he maintains it's not Nazi related.

Banning him for refusing to change his sig line isn't different from banning him for the content of his sig line.

 

Are you referring to the polling from 1980 or was there a more recent poll they ran? 38 year old statistics my not be an accurate representation of the current media (especially given the change in the industry with the Internet).

 

As opposed to the past when it was implied to be anti-semitic. You can't sanitize and reuse it now and say its 'something else.'

 

Big Soccer is a private operation and can censor whatever it likes just like you can, if you wish, toss someone out of your house if they say things you dislike.
