[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD
Posting guidelines for Politics and Soci...
These are our baselines. We're not reinventing the wheel here. If you aren't sure if something is acceptable to post, its better to ask first. If you think someone is posting something that violates the above guidelines, please report it or PM me rather than responding in kind.
To reiterate some of the points:
1. No personal attacks. This is a broad instruction, but, in general, we want to focus on attacking an argument rather than the poster making it. It is fine to say a post is antisemitic; it is not okay to call someone an antisemite over and over. If you believe someone is making antisemitic posts, report them or PM me. The same goes for calling people "baby killers" and "genocide lovers". You are allowed to argue that an action supports genocide or that the consequences of certain policies results in the death of children, but we are no longer going to be speaking to one another's intentions. It is not productive to the conversation and doesn't further any debate.
2. Racist posts and other bigoted statements that target a particular group or individuals of such groups with derogatory comments are not allowed. This should not need further explanation.
3. Graphic Images need to be in spoilers with a trigger warning.
4. Wishing Harm on other posters will result in an immediate timeout.
5. Genocidal statements such as "Kill 'em all" etc, are no longer permissible in the thread.
If anyone has any questions about the above, please PM me. I don't want a discussion about the rules to derail the content of this thread. If anything needs clarifying, I will do that in this thread.

lol, there's been quite a bit of uproar over America's involvement with the Syrian crisis.
Regardless, Israel is killing 34k+ people with bombs that my tax dollars pay for, I'm going to speak out about that and all your whatabouts change nothing.
1 million times the number of times hamas shot rockets at Jordan or kidnapped and raped hostages
I've never met a single Muslim who feels this way.
Saudi Arabia is a much better example than Syria. They are a US ally and there are like 400000 Yemeni deaths since 2015 attributed to the war.
These college kids don't Even know what's happening in syria
Have you ever seen a college protest against saudi
You're dumb and don't read. I've been making that exact point.
Why isn't anyone protesting North Korea???!?!?!?!?!?
Or Iran? We had some me too alike movements against Iran but today, they disappeared.
Even if homosexuals are still hanged there, girls and women are still jailed for their haircut and lack of veil, and the islamofascism is at peak levels.
Almost as if like they didn't give a **** actually about normal people human rights
Are you also dumb and not reading?
It's very funny that the people who want the National Guard to come beat up student protestors are also mad that there aren't more students protesting Syria/Iran/etc.
micro identifying threats.
We can't all be smart.
Wait me agreeing with you makes me dumb?
I'm not mad that there are none of those protests. I'm just saying the difference is that Israel is full of Jews
Hamas is still in power and still wants to destroy Israel. Israel does not want to end the water. Israel will do ceasefires in 4 month increments to get hostages back but they still plan to destroy hamas
This is news to nobody so I'm not sure what your point is
Vic is on his dinner break, but he does intend to plough through the night
I guess I must be the dumb one. Thank goodness. I could have sworn "Have you ever seen a college protest against saudi" was you disagreeing with me.
Back in the 80s was it just that students hated white South Africans?
Ok I agree. So you can stop spouting off that about getting the hostages back.
They proly hated Jews too. Bc the ADL was actively spying on the SA protesters.
Wow, so confusing if you were really agreeing with me when I was offering an explanation for why there aren't protests against Saudi Arabia in Western Universities. Are you sure you read?
Who said i was arguing with you? Get over yourself bro 😀
