Not gonna because that's an instant moderation afaik, but that's the essence of what happened.

There are a few gamefaqs mods pretty far left. Think Canada-level shilling for Islam, to the point where any criticism against the Quran is deemed hate speech. It's absolute lunacy, but they'll reap what they sow sooner or later.
---

Now now, TC. Just because we might have frequent incidents like this one:

http://fox8.com/2017/03/18/paris-airport-attack-armed-assailant-shouted-i-am-here-to-die-for-allah/

there is no reason to jump to conclusions about their religion.

How can you be sure of his motives, though?
---

Yup.

I get modded repeatedly for shit like that as well. Fucking hilarious.
---

Let's test that theory, maybe you guys are lying about the details of the moderation.

People commit violence in the name of Islam.
---

What's funny is that I'll absolutely preach that someone practising their Islamic faith is no problem in my eyes. If you pray to God and wear your hjiab I have zero qualms with you, and nothing I've ever said should give anyone that impression. You are free to do that, and absolutely should be.

But the ideology and the institution. That I will criticise endlessly.
---

But it's true. People commit violence in the name of Islam.

In all honesty, just dispute. There is a mod on CE who proactively handles these comments about Islam and is horrendous at his job. I've probably had 5 bullshit moderations on this topic overturned in the last year.

That fucking hate speech rule, there are indeed a few snowflake mods who bend it way too far. Good luck getting it overturned, you have about a 10% chance you get a decent lead mod to overturn, no matter how BS it is. Here's a recent gem from a post of mine. It was an Austin Powers meme in response to an article of a lady looking like a dude.

This was deleted because she's taking a body positive feminist stance on body hair, so you call her a man for it. This falls in under the hate speech category of the offensive rule, as you are using gender as means of an insult. Have a good day.

I disputed to Lead Mod, it was the Lead Mod who said the above. I honestly can't be bothered taking it to the admin, it's going to be the same story. Criticisms of religious ideology are apparently deeply offensive to whoever shares that ideology, to such a degree that they can be considered "hate speech" by someone who nevertheless has the sufficient mental capacity to type out coherent sentences.

This only applies when it's Islam. If it's literally any religion, the frequency of this type of moderation drops.

probably best to admit you were in the wrong if proudclad and admiral are arguing on your behalf

I once got modded for mocking feminism. Seriously, "insulting feminism". That was clearly new mod season and I think I remember an SJW becoming a new mod during that time. He didn't last.

Nothing anyone can say can make me think that making philosophical criticisms of an idealogy is hate speech, bro.

You also insulted black people because of a fake youtube video and argued for rape as a form of punishment so i'm sure that moderation was totally unfair.

No no I get it. Tbh it looks bad, and we would disagree on about 98% of political topics, but I feel like I'm taking crazy pills lately with how criticism towards a religious idea is considered racism

We have no such law.

The biggest issue is that mods are just inconsistent as shit. That's an innocuous fact (assuming you posted exactly what you say you did), yet people say far worse shit on a daily basis without getting modded.

Then you have things where I once got warned for saying terrorists who shot Malala should all be shot and was told to "keep that off this site, we don't allow condoning killing of any kind," yet you have people who are allowed to say so-and-so deserves the death penalty for a crime which is...kinda the same thing?

*awaits the moment when the mod comes in and says that's not what happened, stop playing the victim*

But I like being the victim, give me pity plx

Good. Progress is being made here. Racist bigots who deny that racism can exist against white people should be ridiculed by the Left.

A black man has just been charged with a hate crime in the shooting death of a white motorist. I'd called that racist. Not something minimizing like "prejudice".

And I've been modded for bashing Christianity.

You can indeed be racist against whites, but this is pretty amusing coming from a guy who's shilling so hard for a neo-Nazi in other topics today.

Not true at all, I've gotten modded for incredibly tame religion of peace jabs at Christianity.

I wish there was accountability for moderations. If the goofus who modded this had his name on the dispute form, I have a feeling it would've been overturned.

Stop lying about me. I don't give a shit about that guy. The most I've done is defend the crowd from Neo-Nazi smears.

I'm pretty sure paraphrasing and posting an exact screenshot are not the same thing in ToS terms, but I'm not sure.

Hard to give context without just saying exactly what I said, but essentially I was arguing why Islam can be considered a fundamentally violent ideology in various contexts.

I didn't say that you have a law like that, though. You're illiterate, as is tradition.

I've been modded for quoting a Dailymail article that contained a racial slur that was already mostly censored. The slur wasn't even being used in a racially derogatory way, just as slang.
