Except they aren't censoring conservative voices and verifying terrorist organizations. You make extraordinary claims with absolutely no proof. That's called lying.

Ironically they have give you conservatives a bigger voice than you've ever had. You just can't see it.

Flaming people with 100 meme posts or relentlessly trolling on a topic may be temporarily satisfying, but like donuts, if that is your entire diet you will get a tummy ache.....

Aint that the truth.

Watch what people post. Is it something to promote discussion or something to piss someone off?

Half the people here are triyng to have a civil discussion and enjoy the friendly banter. The other half are trying to flame people they disagree with.

Thanks to the previous Moderator for his work over the years. It is much appreciated now, even if it wasn't before.

But who gets to decide what is friendly banter? If someone posts a link to a government bill, say like this one, H.R. 1625 (115) am I flaming bandito or having a civil discussion? It's a public record of the largest spending bill in the history of the US. Sorry to break it to you, but very often this type of post was deemed "flaming". Is it?

And, if banditto doesn't reply within minutes, the talons come out, the mocking insues. the gangup. the satarical bullying. Meanwhile, the thread/topic gets buried in layers of myriad posts, not related to the topic, most of the time.

Ban the ignore function.

Not aware of a built-in "ignore function". That's a poster's prerogative: to ignore someone or a subject which would quite likely lead to the escalation of flaming.

Stopped doing that back in, oh...2007 or so...

Notices like that below are a form of opinon and may be backed up with text and/or links as well...so i wouldn't expect this sort of thing to stop



Better than shouting "moron"...haven't seen THAT word survive a deletion around these parts for some time...

hahahahahhahahaha. I feel bad for how blind you are to the truth. You honestly believe that they aren't censoring conservatives? Seriously? That's why @jack is testifying in front of Congress about it. He literally kicked Alex Jones off Twitter but does nothing about the "Verified Hate" spewed all over their platforms by prominent Liberal media members wanting to eradicate white people.

You can't stand up in a movie theater and shout "FIRE!!"

You can't stand up in FanLax and shout out Alex Jones-style garbage.

Same same.

Yet liberals can shout death to white people on Twitter and get hired by the NYT? See how hypocritical and racist Democrats are?

Both parties are hypocritical on a number of issues. Right wing media and websites are incredibly controlling of their content and censor or ban users at the blink of an eye. Just check out The_Donald subreddit, .

You can't just stand there and shout that the Democrats are hypocritical and racist while claiming your own crap doesn't stink.

Google intensifies censorship of left-wing websites - those wacky leftists are claiming censorship just like you.

I hope we maintain that same mentality here at FL.
Mr. coaster, Hoo is right, who???? You can't post that without divulging the deserving one.

Here, for example, is bandito's profile page:

http://lummys.com/fanlax/phpbb3/memberl ... file&u=291

Interesting to see that his location is West Yellowstone, MT, a town whose economy is strongly dependent on the infusion of federal money to the Park ….

I'm close to clicking the "foe" button for him. So far he has not said a single thing that was not completely predictable hard-core Trumpista.

Who is censoring him? There is something called "basic human decency" but that too is debatable.

the LP posting rules were vague enough to allow anything to be deleted that didn't fit a particular mods mood. Also, the "vacation" (temporary banning) was childish, especially for posts that were topical but contrarian to the mods viewpoints. Finally, it was clear that many LP posters had a longer leash than others.
