Consulted Wikipedia. It’s a translation difference I didn’t know about. The German combines words in a way that threw me off. Sorry about that.

I found it simply funny that Fascism gets called out by name. Im totally fine with sayin authoritarian ultra nationaist assholes GTFO, but it also makes me wonder that if fascists are called out, are there (or aren’t there) other ideologies or what-not which would be equally insta-no?
Also the spelling and grammar, Imma be trying my best, but my phone typing game is not so strong lately: plz forgive my autocorrect being ducking sharty.
Accidental save of my pedantry. Phew.
I called out nazis for a specific reason.
I am a free speech absolutist: I take a very radical approach to it, and I honestly believe that it is essential to the future of any society.
That said, fascism is on the rise right now. It is not a rhetorical threat. These people are dangerous, and while I in a strict sense support their right to express themselves, said expression must be met with vigorous, immediate, and constant opposition.

Party policy was whatever was expedient to the overall goal of attaining and holding power.

I’m adding a new rule.
Unless you are sure that someone is comfortable with their meat name being used in the forum, don’t use their meat name. If you’re unsure at all, ask first. By default, assume people are not comfortable with it.

Thought this was standard practice?
Yes, but it happened, so doesn’t hurt to write it down just in case.
Fair doos
(15 words can huff my farts)
Summary of the current rules:
- Be mindful of your grammar and spelling
- Post intelligently
- Don’t be annoying
- Don’t harass anyone
- Don’t advocate fascism/white supremacy/hate speech
- Don’t use fellow forumites’ real names without permission
Other details have been clarified as well.

Right, the one really stupid thing about this forum software is that all the “pages” are actually topics and there’s secret sauce making it all work. It’s the worst design pattern.
My bad, won’t happen again.

If we’re talking about the same incident w.r.t. using real names, I think I may have been the root cause when I chose to use your name; you may have just been following suit. Sorry about that!
Also, nice updated FAQ, Rym. Since there’s a guideline for “don’t divert a topic by changing it midstream”, and the correct response to bad behaviour is flagging, does that mean I should be flagging most of the posts over here:
?

I think technically you should report all posts by non-white non-cishet non-males. Everything else would technically be on topic.

Is this a violation of Rule 5?
I’m not sure if you are but I was definitely joking.
