Don't worry. With how CE moderates users, with how I understand "discussions" went on the politics board, and with the new higher userlevel gate, you're looking at a week or two tops before a lot of these folks end up on the other side of the wall.

Fandom: "We're closing 261."

261: "Well then we're going to create a new 261! With blackjack and hookers! In fact, forget the blackjack!"

It was inevitable.

I dont think it will. All the crazies like Hyena_20 will eventually get weeded out. Plus hopefully CEmen tells the 261ers that think they're pseudointellectuals and take anonymous message boards on the internet way too seriously to shut the fuck up with their dumb bullshit >_>

Yeah honestly this place was getting kinda lame with them driving away the fun users with the new moderation system and now this will kill CE for good. It's only a matter of time before CE becomes too political and they decide to shut it down. Either that or political discussion will be BANNED entirely and if you even so much as breathe politically, you get moderated up the butt.

I didn't visit that board and don't really consider politics in general. I just think that they did a half ass job if they're really concerned about politics. Why just close 261? They should've rounded them up like carrots and put the bad boys of 261 inside a glass dome for their own safety.

CE is the glass dome now is my point. I don't want these guys here either. They're kinda creepy and not the fun kind like Vegy.

One unusual thing about 261 was that it spawned a clique of obsessive* right wing cranks who thought all their moderations were categorically unfair.

Seeing how the nuking of 261 was done, it's difficult to avoid the conclusion these cranks found some sympathy for their views in the relevant Fandom decision makers. Clueless tech-bro "freeze peach" crap by ownership would be enough.

That's part of why the announcement from corporate on why 261 was nuked is so farcical. If the intent was really to eliminate abusive pest holes from Gamefaqs, there would have been many other targets, most having higher priority than 261.

People who are getting scapegoated by Republicans don't have a choice about being political. The only choice they have is to fight back or accept being eradicated on the enemy's schedule.

there are subreddits with alt right users that spawned from ce as well and they constantly complain about moderations and other insane behavior. there is a ce regular that used to constantly spam the n word and anti semitic and incel like posts on one of those subs

Y'all are gatekeeping for no reason though, because you probably have more in common than you think. Politics had hornyposting too, just bring up AOC.

If you're a decent poster, and not a total POS, then you have no reason to feel uncomfortable. Simple.

Political scapegoating is blaming all of society's problems on some supposedly undesirable group of people. Then (according to the perps of this evil shit), everything will be better if these undesirables are dealt with.

In other words, scapegoating is what the Nazis did to the Jews and many others, culminating in the Holocaust.

Right now, Republicans are very busy scapegoating trans people and "illegal immigrants", and many other groups, but these two are the hottest targets for now.

So, for example, a trans person needs to be political in self defense (or is merely waiting to die if/when Republicans take absolute power).
