Why can't we all be friends?

What if you think he's genuinely a racist though, I mean if you happened to feel that, wouldn't your moral obligation be to call him a racist ****, not that I would do so obviously, I'm just asking for an obviously fictitious friend.
What would doing so achieve?

Don't know if this is a troll thread but the very fact that the CW status quo gangs up on Weldone makes me root for him even though I know he posts a lot of ****.

Team Weldone here. Fight the power

And eventually, you hope, that at some point, if a massive group of people get together and call you a **** repeatedly over and over, it may finally occur to you that maybe there is something wrong with your behavior and you need to take a look at yourself at the mirror.
'Being nice' is not synonymous with 'ignoring when people are being racist' or 'not telling people that they're speaking ****'.

You can still point out someone's bad posting in a way that doesn't include five censored words and a mention of their mother, but to ask people to just not point out bad posting at all is so wrong. That is not at all what Gandhi stood for.

We should all still highlight ****** posting and bad arguments. Just in a nicer way a guess.

Yeah, I fully agree. Calling him a racist '****' wouldn't get you far, but explaining why the person's views are racist could.

Actually I've already been mod-warned to not engage with WW.

Maybe Shri can take up that task from me.

And yea I don't like vicleggie (not to be confused with the awesome vic_orthodox) or listento_me either.

haha this thread has basically become a place where everyone asks Daemon for protocol on a poster, but in reality it is just a place to publicly shame posters they think are ****.

Everything Daemon didn't want.

Daemon you lost.

It's a slight on people who attack a particular poster instead of sticking to cricketing points. Don't see how weldone is in the wrong just because 3-4 guys gang up on him.

Yeah this has to stop. If we go down this route the thread will probably be locked.

I think this was always inevitable.

The answer to the question "why can't we all be friends?" is "because certain people are really dire".

Edit: Anyway, apropos of nothing, I've not seen Agent Nationaux posting recently.

Because people have tried to reason with him, and like most racists he won't listen.

Quite frankly as soon as he started using alt-right Memes he should be banned. There's no difference between showing sypathy to them as showing sympathy to all forms of fascism. He'd probably argue that was Fascism of the left, but in the end who cares, the forum owners shouldn't really want creeping alt-rightness in here, in the same way they shouldn't want Porn or Spamming.

just my opinion like:)
