So let me get this straight....

On this forum the term "feminazi" is on the same level of racial slur as "n!gger"?

You can have political discussion in this forum as long as you follow these unwritten rules:

1) Don't personally attack liberal posters, specifically or as a group. You will be banned.
2) Don't ever ever call out a liberal poster in a different thread. You will be banned.
3) Don't ever call any liberal poster you don't agree with a T**LL. You will be banned.
4) Don't disagree with the extremely liberal moderators that post here. They will find a reason to vacation/ban you. If you figure out who they are, don't mention them by name. They will ban you.
5) Do not cause threads to go off-topic in a non-liberal direction. This will result in a ban.
6) If for some rare reason you are a liberal and get perm-banned (it's only happened once in the history of ATP&amp;N AFAIK), just evade the ban. They'll let you back in.


I'm sure I missed a few, but those are good rules to live by to allow you some intelligent political discussion. Just don't expect to see any different viewpoints.

Do not know about being banned - but the threats seem to abound.
The rules with the exception of #4 may be valid. Have not yet encountered such a mod or maybe I am unable to piss off enough liberals (not trying hard enough) to justify becoming a target.

Speak for yourself yllus, I have picked up a few good ideas from both sides from time-to time. Even changed my mind about subjects.
The poster who said some libs in here are PItheA, good that is the point. To be a thorn in the bush supporter side until things can be set straight. (or at least a bit more balanced.)
Good job whoever the PIA is lol.

Hey AL that is total BS too I have had my share of vacations and I wouldn't consider my writing to be geared towoard pissing off liberals. (But if it happens oh well.)
Nice strawman, try better next time ok? Damn and you all say we are the whiners....

Yes, It is insulting to call someone a feminazi unless you are a rush clone. welcome to 2004 outside of the south. You obviously have no life experience with strong women. Seems to me you have issues with strong women to boot. Save it for the headshrinks chair ok? Or maybe your boyfriend will understand.

You are not allowed to make mentions of slurs towards liberals, women, minorities, or the French in here. Only NASCAR loving, trialer park livin', red-state ignoramuses, neocons, and fundie Christians are fair game for slurs in this forum. If you can combine all three into one big slur, good going. Feel free to slam them all you desire. The baser the slur the better.

LOL

But it's not insulting to call someone from the south a redneck, or undeducated, or stupid, or call people who voted for bush "moronic conservatives"

....or jesusfreaks....

....or the miriad of other condescending or deragatory remarks?



....but i'm sure you'll justify all those slurs. I have faith in your ability to justifty actions as long as they are inline with your ideological beliefs.

i come by from time to time and it appears to me to be nothing more than a well crafted mama joke

"your mama is so fat that when she walks SF goes on earthquake alert"

"oh yeah well your mama is like ace hardware, everyone can get a nail"

and so on and so forth...

its kinda fun to watch at times actually...

Most libs feel that sleers are acceptable as long as they are addressed to those you do not like.

Just like a black calling another a n1gger - considered OK. /language filter bypassed delibeately

But a non-black can not do so.

Hypocrites!!

aww poor wittle right wing headcases are being opressed. what are you upset about? you have a "mandate" anyhow.
*cry me a river*
Stop being stereotypical predictable sheep and people will not point out your bigotry.
The fools in the south who voted for bush deserve every bit of what they get nowdays.
Don't like it then don't make the country out to be ignorant asses like you.

Good luck. Have you noticed the last Election??? :confused:

Well there used to be a catch all term that took off before the Election but had Zero impact on the Election, was the "N" word (Neocons) now that it is clear the Religous Radical Right Fearless Liar Lemmings have infiltrated high into the North land of the Country such as Ohio the movement is easily summed up RRR FLL.

Nazi slurs are reserved for conservatives.

Personally, not a big fan of "feminazi" myself. It degrades the term Nazi and the memory of the holocaust and WW2.

maybe they'll go cry to the ACLU, oh wait that is a commie institution, yeah nevermind.
If you don't like AT so much that you have to go crying to mods all the time http://www.freerepublic.com awaits you freepers.
If I was a mod i'd ban you for whining so much and wasting my time.
Sh1t gets heated in here yes, but you are in a political forum. what do you want? Oh yeah full control, typical.
Your fellow freepers miss you. Shouldn't you be bashing homeless gays and hillary clinton?
Much easier to do it there and noone will dare dog out your fearless leader!

I agree.

I'm not familiar with Rush's "Feminazi" is that the same as Arnold's "Girlie Men"???

Hmmmm, you say you want "good, intelligent debate", but then you label your professor, whom you also admit "can leave the idiocy and looney theories at the door" with the crude, derogatory, dismissive, Rush Limbaugh popularized neologism "feminazi", a term explicitly crafted to discount her very person, brand her as an extremist loon, and signal to all who read your description that anything and everything she says can be preemptorally dismissed.

Yet you go on later in this thread to exhibit a huge defensive streak against anyone who might stereotype you. Irony much?

As for these forums, to paraphrase Winston Churchill regarding democracy, "ATP&amp;N is the worst political forum on the entire intarweb, except for all the others."

This forum can and does suck. But if and when you find a better one, please let us know.
Ars Technica's is much better.

Ars is ATP&amp;N with better grammar. Other than that there's little difference. Like ATP&amp;N, it has more than its fair share of the L3 (Loonie Liberal Left) crew.

The Ars 'Soap Box' is subscriber-only, so I can read it but not post. The subscriber-only attribute tends to keep out the trolls, since nobody wants to get banned and loose a subscription they paid money for.
