Will Elite Trader please take a stand against dangerous anti-vaxxer bullshit?

Were it not the case, you would never be allowed to post.

 

What's funny is that I don't think you've identified any specific ET member for their anti-vaxxer bullshit while few others in this thread that are against censorship have specifically identified ET members challenging the anti-vaxxer bullshit.

I have the OP on ignore because his/her only argument when he/she inevitably runs out of arguments is only: "Seriously, STFU." My guess is that he/she is a teenage girl, based on the way he/she "argues", but I obviously cannot be sure. In other words, no productive conversation is possible with this person and so it was better not to waste my time with it and do what is best with this kind of person: ignore.

Even so, I would never call for a ban on him/her. Not because of him/her, but because it is simply wrong to penalize someone because of what they think/say.

So I defend his/her right to say whatever he/she wants, even those childish things, which is his/her MO. I simply choose to ignore it.

What the Moderators do with their website is their business and you are not forced to be here. If you are not satisfied, you can always just leave.

My comment was exclusively on Magna's post. Even though I think it would be better to have no censorship at all( for example, years ago, Lawrence-Lugar was banned and I don't think he should have been), it is still their prerogative and in this situation, I applauded their position.

Overall, I'm pleased with the way the website is managed.

My comment was to you because your post came across that there was no censorship and you were congratulating Magna for not listening to other members when they complain about a violation of the TOU policy.

The fact is obvious...there is in fact censorship and Baron / Magna have publicly stated multiple times that they do not have the ability to monitor every single post at this forum.

• Thus, they're greatly dependent upon members to report violations of the TOU policy...reason why there's a [report] complaint link in every message post.

Simply, some of the reported members have been censored after they've violated the TOU policy.

Regardless, this is the feedback thread and the OP with the complaint has not identified any specific member that's posting anti-vaxxer bullshit. Thus, why would someone be offended about the complaint ?

I didn't want to offend anyone by inadvertently excluding them.

 

Snowflakes don't like spotlights directed at them.

 

And there is always the ignore feature - which I've put to go use many times.

Just last week in fact after a "garbage" warning DM came my way. Can't bother you if you don't see-um.

 

You are the one saying someone is offended. You, and probably the OP as well, keep whining about anything that doesn't fit your narrative. Proof of it is that you appear to be really aware that there is censorship in the website for a long time and you are manifesting yourself now, obviously because you want censorship to be applied as well, thinking that you are defending some "public good or safety" or some bullshit like that.

I, on the other hand, am giving my feedback(in the feedback section) to Magna, complimenting them for their position. At the same time, I pointed out that I think it would be better to have no censorship at all and used the example of Lawrence Lugar to address it. But, it is their website, they do whatever the hell they want with it and they don't have to explain it to me or anybody else. Their views, posts and numbers are the real feedback, the one they ultimately care about, as any normal person in this world.
