Dave Davidson Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 (edited) Over 9000, bering strait, and meLothedestroyerofworlds have been suspended pending account review. We sure don't mind hearing controversial perspectives as long as they don't break the rules, and all three of these accounts have pushed those rules far past breaking. We'll be reviewing these accounts separately to see if the suspensions will become permanent. Upon staff review, the suspensions have been upgraded to full bans for all three. It's always been our policy to give people the benefit of the doubt when it comes to learning (very sorry it takes so long sometimes), but when it's obvious the learning is secondary to an agenda, we have to draw the line. It's even more important when that agenda is unsavory as racism and discrimination. No place for those in science. There is no place in science for racism and discrimination? Racism defined as using the race concept, like others isms, a concept used with exactly the same definition as any phylogenetic category? I'd say there certainly is a place for racism in science. Perhaps due to the intentionally vague nature of the word you are trying to imply "racism" necessitates gas chambers and slavery, and then associating this with discussing human psychological differences, a cheap and dishonest but entirely common tactic. Sadly modern politics has devolved to the point where mindless sheep bleat "racist, racist" ad infinitum. It's sad that such mindless idiocy affects science too. Amazing how one can dismiss categories by putting "ist" on the end and name calling your opponents. It's amazing because people are stupid enough to fall for it. Discrimination? As in observing differences? An agenda? My "agenda" was to debate human variation scientifically. The science of your members was incredibly weak. It's a pity you can't criticise my science, and instead have to pretend you can know my motivation, as if that's of any relevance anyway. Perhaps your agenda is Communism or White genocide or global Islamification or Jewish supremacy. I don't know and wouldn't pretend to. I would discuss the science. What there isn't a place for in science is mindless name calling based on your personal feelings. Pathetic board.

Strange Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Racism defined as using the race concept No it isn't. Discrimination? As in observing differences? That is not what the word means. Pathetic board. Bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
