Discovered the forum welcome thread, with the basic information about ExElba, was accidentally blocked from view.  If anyone here visited there and could not see that intro announcement, it's fixed and you can maybe get a clearer idea of what it about.  It will have a couple rules of engagement that will make it distinctly different from Elba, so give it a chance.  (also it's a very simple board structure, not in any way an attempt to replicate what's here or the former NYT fora)

The line will be drawn at personal atacks and the scatological stuff, but that won't mean you can't hold posters accountable for what they say.  My experience as a web admin elsewhere was that, if you can't call names, it forces you to address the content of the post with which you take issue.

 FOR EXAMPLE
If someone presents news from a source that you believe has a racist bias as to content selection, you can point out how that is happening.  IOW, you could point out that someone's opinion is being formed by a biased news feed without having to wield an ad hominem, not call them a bigot or racist or a syphilitic old cunt with a necrotic clitoris or whatever.  IOW, attack the idea not the person.

Sure, it's an experiment.  The Third Eye alums will handle those guardrails easily, you guys I'm not so sure about.

Times used to have an ignore button so you could avoid shitheads like yankguy.

Luee, you would be happier if instead of posting the outcomes of your mental disease on this forum you carved them straight into your face with a pen knife.

Amazing, playing the race card on the message board to insult. Trolling at its worst?

Some collateral damage is to be expected, of course!!!!

Well, yes, if people are careless with guns.

We're talking 'America' here, where handguns and assault rifles are legal...and the bad people *all* have guns.

Pointing out you are a racist is not "playing the race card" and is not trolling. It is an apt description of the arguments you make. You make routine racist comments. Ergo, you are a racist.

It is pretty fucking clear to everyone but the racists, racist.

Another one wanting to blame everything on the evil whiteman? You are saying all whitemen are racists? All supporters of closing the borders are racists? All opposed to Biden economic policies are racists? All opposed to sleepy Joe are racists. I say I am not a racist therefore I am not. Name calling is the only defense to sleepy Joe's policies and such a hoody thrill. It is why everyone wants to leave. Most come here to express themselves and not trade cheap insults. Ignore button so nice. You disagree with my arguments explain it, just insulting me makes you look so idiotic. You are not a racism judge by the way. Sound more like an anti-white moron racist. All of your comments revolve around race. Yada, yada!

Asking questions shows a longing for growth. That is a wonderful sign.

As to your questions, the answer to each one is NO, except for the third one where the he answers is obviously YES.

If you think very hard about it for a long time you might stumble into some kind of better understanding.

Very best of luck

While I applaud Luee's principled stand against name calling, I think calling the President "Sleepy Joe," somewhat pulls him off-message.

That is not how it works. I do not doubt you do not think you are a racist. Racists are often like dead people in 6th Sense.

No, dolt. It just appears like that because you make racist comments all the time, and I call you out on it.

That's a keeper!

A significant part of growing out of my twenties was perceiving my unconscious residues of racism and other social biases.  And it's a lifelong process AFAICT.  People pour poison in your ear when you're a kid.  Adulthood means isolating that poison.  Then spitting it up.
