No, I decided that your statement was something a horrible tyrant would say. There’s a difference. I’m guessing you’re actually pretty decent, but wanted to address what I felt was a horrible statement that only an insane person would utter.

Your example is pretty vague, and I can’t say for certain that the user in question was in the wrong, but it at least sounds like you did the right thing.

Initially it sounded like you were banhammering people without them knowing what they did wrong, but at least in this example, you warned the user first, so it seems as though you did right. If it was always like that, my apologies for misinterpreting what you said.

Have a good one.

::shrugs:: we both agree that the other is the problem. Have fun with your power tripping.

The statements

“don’t be afraid to ban somebody just because they didn’t explicitly violate a rule”

And

“Oh, just ban whoever even if they didn’t break any rules”

Use different words but end up in the same place.

So how is it grossly misrepresenting anything?

Perhaps you can give an example of when someone didn’t break any rules and you felt justified banning them and why, and maybe I’ll sympathize a little.

I mean, I think you sound ridiculous… So agree to disagree there.

Reply to edit:

Nope. Just don’t like petty authoritarians.

Oh, it’s hyperbolic, but it gets the point across.

Oh I’m sure you have a way to justify your corrupt authoritarianism. I don’t care what your reasoning is. If you ban people without them breaking rules, then the only actual rule is “don’t upset the power tripping bastards”, which I strongly disagree with.

How is this upvoted so much? This is fucking insane.

“Oh, just ban whoever even if they didn’t break any rules”

Last time we had a major protest in the city of Chicago, 24 people died. That’s a little more than “the slightest consequence or inconvenience”

Luigi’s protest was way more efficient. Only one person has died.

When we have protests large enough to get noticed, we get attacked by the police. Why should the protesters have to suffer? Make the oppressors suffer instead.

If you’re interested in that, it will probably be available, yeah.

But if you’re not, there are plenty of non-stoners who play too.

Disc golf is the sport for nerdy kids who never liked sports. And even if you’re absolutely terrible, you get to take a nice walk in the park or the woods. Most courses are free to play, and you really only need one disc to have a good time. Strongly recommend for those who know they aren’t active enough but have no interest in going to the gym.

This just in: Ruling class with a long history of constant violence towards the people they’re supposed to serve shocked that those people would consider using violence against them in return, after functionally blocking all other avenues for change. Pearls clutched.
