Question on ban announcements

feels a bit rough to cop a month on the sidelines for goatse given i could walk into any given politics thread and go on a big racist rant and get like a warning or whatever at most, probably not even that if i desisted after one post
Yeah look I'll die on the hill of tricking someone into clicking on a link containing a photo of a gaping arsehole being worse than posting a political opinion people don't like.

>inb4 omg Cribb thinks racist rants are just unpopular political opinions!!!1!

No, I just think Shady will define the latter as the former a whole lot. If someone actually did go and openly post a disgusting racist rant they'd be banned as well.

So posts that just dog whistle at disgusting racism are ok? Good to know where the line is.

"We won't tolerate racism on CW unless it's tempered with cant and hypocrisy"

A principled stand indeed.
