This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.
The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

They could use Rule 0, which is “we don’t like you. “ They will more likely say that because you said something about someone who opposed BLM, you must be a RACIST.

It happened with someone critical of Facebook’s censorship. Even though that post writer explicitly said he did not like Trump, he was concerned about the precedent being set. They banned him because in their logic, being against someone that is acting against Trump is the same as supporting Trump which is the same as being a Nazi.

TLDR: your time there is over.
Quite possibly. I know that anything I post there will be reviewed for any possible offense. I think I may refrain for a year or more to avoid providing any future violations if I’m on their radar. They may just decide to retroactively increase one of my previous infractions. I don’t have many infractions and they were a while ago, but whoever is reviewing any reports on me at TBP is hopefully going to put some creative effort into their justification. A Rule 0 ban would just be boring, but as far as I can tell I haven’t violated any of their rules.

Careful, they sometimes use things you post over here as justification for a Rule 0 ban.

I tried to make sure I followed the rules. My intent was to pierce any echo chamber (they have members who think Rittenhouse shot black people) they had on the Rittenhouse trial so that there’d be less of a meltdown over there. I’m positive if their echo chamber didn’t receive any pinpricks the meltdown would be worse. Sure many of their members are mad, but hopefully they’re less in shock.

If not for the pinpricks I think we’d be seeing some meltdowns similar to those by the Clinton supporters during the election night of 2016. My guy, Gary Johnson, lost, but it was also in my mind that a Trump victory was in the realm of possibility, so I wasn’t shocked when he won, but I had liberal friends who were traumatized. That wasn’t pleasant thing to see up close. So long as the TBP’s rules are followed they ought to be grateful that their echo chamber gets pierced on occasion. We shall see.

You can't fix stupid...  These people are unable to think on any level other than emotionally.  They're definitely all suffering from arrested development and when things don't go the way they want, they engage in tantrums.  Instead of caving in when they do the equivalent f threatening to his they're breath, let them hold it until they pass out.

I'm currently getting HTTP 500 errors when trying to access TBP.

I wonder if they finally lost their minds.

Are the woketards crying over on The Purple Shithole over the Rittenhouse verdict?

Yep.

American Legal system is dead.  Burn it all down.

Being an idiot doesn't absolve someone of murder.

Sick of this damned country.
They locked the thread. Said they were getting a lot of reports. I was the only one that posted positively regarding the verdict, so 1 guess as to who is getting reported. I’m not sure what I’d be reported for. If they can’t find a violation I’m sure the mods will come up with a new rule. “No support for self-defense allowed on this forum!” Might be an approach they take.
Probably reporting me, for calling the 3 shot "the pedophile, the domestic Abuser and the burglar". But Probably you too, just for having a different view.

Clearly you should have said "child rapist, wife-beater and thief".

I always get that when I have my VPN on; apparently they don't like it when one tries to kept them at arms length.

Also of note they closed the legal thread because it was a "hard verdict"?

I fail to see how a young man exercising his right to self defense and the jury exonerating him of all charges (BS ones at that) is a "hard verdict"? Then again we are talking about TBP.

I should have said "OMAP, Equality-based Melee Enthusiast and Social Redistributionist."

This comment was particularly absurd, in response to your remarks: https://forum.rpg.net/index.php?threads/mostly-us-non-election-law-stuff-megathread-iii-more-things-you-never-want-to-hear-a-judge-say.883092/post-24135729

Personally, I'm thinking of Michael Reinoehl, a Portland antifa supporter who also claimed self-defense in the protest-related shooting death of Aaron Danielson, a supporter of Patriot Prayer.

Mr. Reinoehl never made it to court. He was murdered by a federal fugitive task force, who reportedly didn't give him a chance to surrender. Witnesses describe them opening fire without warning, and despite the sheriff's office investigation determining he initiated a firefight with police, independent investigators determined that his weapon was fully loaded when recovered afterward, and there is no police account of his drawing or pointing a weapon.

I'm pleased Rittenhouse wasn't murdered by police in Kenosha after killing two people. I don't think he should be acquitted, especially since he was previously in a state of mind to protect property by shooting at protestors. I'm of the opinion that the people he killed were acting in self-defense against him, and that his acquittal is a travesty of justice.
He fucking assassinated Danielson. Walked up and shot him dead. And then decided to commit suicide by cop by trying to shoot it out with U.S. Marshals.

These people live in an entirely different world. And I'm getting really tired of their gaslighting.

Everyone who isn't a mental defective leftist could clearly recognize the difference between Reinoehl ambushing Danielson and Rittenhouse running from his attackers before being forced to shoot them (including the 5-time pedo who tried to ambush him).  That, and ya know, Rittenhouse turned himself in instead of being the subject of a manhunt...

This kind of cracked me up. https://forum.rpg.net/index.php?threads/insane-price-of-medicine-in-usa.889895/

In essence, it's bitching about (a) the U.S. health care industry, and (b) costs of medications, particularly insulin.

What amuses me is over four pages, nobody has the nerve to point out that insulin's cost got capped by Trump, and then uncapped by Sleepy Joe.

Oops.

Of course they don't have the nerve. It's explicitly against the rules (as "RAAAACIIISSMMM") to defend or say anything positive about something Trump did. That's not hyperbole either; when someone asked in December of last year if they could start a thread about positive things he did, they were told that it would be racist to do so.

Right as the last seven day ban was due to expire too. Not a new tactic for the worthless meatbags that comprise TBP's staff.
