time for a small batch of religion wank, all within the typically quiet walls of honestyisabitch. it all began when mumbalo_jack made this post enlightening we "multicultural leftist apologists" as to why all of islam, not just the extremists are teh ebil.

someone bothers to point out that that all religions have their nutters but to mumbalo_jack christianity isn't so bad because a few

Mumbo is a notorious troll. He makes racist comments everywhere he hasn't been banned from then calls anyone who objects 'whiney loosers' and things of that nature. Between him, Transcendenz, and asianrevenge , blackfolkwatch is an endless source of humor hidden cleverly beneath the guise of a debate comm.

I think he took this one to heated debate too.

I've seen Mumbalo's name before... Wish I could remember where.

And as a side note, I don't think the "powers that be" over at blackfolkwatch have noticed the number of active blackfolk members (myself included) that are also BFW members.

Although I imagine once asianrevenge reads this*, that will change.

He posts in liberal and conservatism with usually the same results. That's where I'd seen him before. I cringe every time I see his lj name.

Oh, I believe it.

[asianrevenge]

Why do you think that's an issue? Like I mentioned to Freezer, blackfolkwatch doesn't care what other comms it's members belong to, unlike militant groups such as dot_race_snark, blackfolk and others.

[threegoats]

You have to have noticed that certain members of bfw will often go off half cocked and e-shriek at any minority who disagrees with them in general but save an extra vehemence for anyone who happens to be a member of bf. Actually you don't even have to be currently disagreeing with them, quite often they'll have said something similar in the recent past themselves but still pick a fight with you for saying it.

"And as a side note, I don't think the "powers that be" over at blackfolkwatch have noticed the number of active blackfolk members (myself included) that are also BFW members."

It hasn't escaped anyone's notice, but what makes you think it's an issue with them or anyone there? Unlike blackfolk or dot_race_snark, blackfolkwatch doesn't threaten people with banning simply for being members of certain other comms.

[freezer]

Because you're all such cool, reasonable, rational people and all that...

[asianrevenge]

Yup. Certainly more open to a variety of points of view.

[asianrevenge]

That reminds me. Has Magenta-Jong-Il actually followed through and banned members of DRS that are also members of BFW? She really should consider not being so closed minded and bigotted.

[freezer]

Why do I get the feeling that when you say things like "closed minded", "bigoted", and "militant", it's actually code for "people who don't like me and aren't shy about saying so"?

[asianrevenge]

I have no idea, since I've never had issues with individuals who disagreed with me. I DO have issues with people and communities that see no issue with squelching the speech of those who are not in line with their agenda. In the case of Magenta-Jong-Il, she even says herself that she is a dictator. I don't see where I'm off base in referring to her as close minded and certainly bigotted.

Not that you haven't seen this or anything

From a post in DRS:

"Current members have 48 hours to quit one comm or the other. By Sunday afternoon, all bans are final, no questions asked. This isn't up for debate, either. Don't like it? Don't give a shit."

--Magenta-Jong-Il, Dear Leader of DRS

Yes, it must be me that is projecting closed mindedness on her part. In reality, she is open minded and accepts all forms of dialog though she may disagree with it.

Re: Not that you haven't seen this or anything

[threegoats]

I'll try this one more time, pay close attention.

DRS is not a debate comm.

Re: Not that you haven't seen this or anything

[asianrevenge]

That doesn't explain why she should give a shit what other comms members belong to. That goes beyond any explanations of DRS not being a debate community. It is a function of her being too full of herself.

Re: Not that you haven't seen this or anything

[threegoats]

This is just speculation here, but maybe she doesn't want your friends infiltrating and taking over her comm with their own agendas.
