Jesse, we need to print!
They're both rude, and I don't appreciate either. But
- You weren't called "fucking stupid" -- your argument was.
- TBF your argument appears pretty stupid
- @[email protected] made an attempt to parse your argument. That's a positive contribution.
If you de-escalate and take time to explain your position better and they're still rude to you, and someone reports their behavior, I'll give them a similar warning.
Your comment is inappropriately rude, and adds little more than hostility to the discussion.
This is a moderator warning to revise it.
Ups, przepraszam – tłumaczenie maszynowe! fash -> modowego / faszystowskiego. Częsty błąd.
Obviously, the article is biased. So are you. In particular, I am biased against apartheid, child kidnapping, and slander.
But it looks like your usage of the word 'biased' here is a dogwhistle for 'Hamas supporting' or 'anti-Israel.' It also appears you're inferring without evidence that the five 14 year olds in Israeli custody were tortured lawfully because of military activity. We look dimly on the slander of child victims and journalists here. Would you like to justify or retract your statement?
I think the author would rather call it by the Chochenyo name "Huichin" since it is stolen Ohlone land by western standards of property. The typical journalistic standard is to call the land by its people's language rather than its colonized name, like Việt Nam instead of Indochina, or Sri Lanka instead of Ceylon, but obviously there is an exception with land in the United States where most writers passively deny the colonized people continue to exist or that colonialism is an issue.
Calling it "so-called Oakland" is a compromise that improves the accessibility of the article to a general audience and encourages conversations like this.
Worthy of note, XMPP chat stayed up and moderators were able to see updates as the repairs took place. Thanks for setting that up, @poVoq - it's working well.

Saint-Imier in Switzerland has a Bakuninist watchmaker community, buildings are decorated with labor, time, and chronometry motifs.
The Rojava communes in northern Syria culturally elevate martyrs, and the fighting dead (mural from a Greek refugee camp) are a common theme in their murals.
Esperanto has a lot of good features, but it is binary gendered and default male by design. That hasn't aged well.
Due in part to persecution on both sides during the Cold War, it has skipped a generation in terms of adoption. There are a lot of old speakers, a growing set of new speakers, but not a lot of middle aged speakers. But the dated politics and class interests of the large population of the surviving advanced aged speakers with leisure time to participate in the culture can make them as much a burden as they are a resource, in north America at least.
Shoplifting is definitely a case where privilege makes a big difference. White people in my area will shoplift even though they don't need it and then distribute the food to homeless people.
Yeah, they did call you stupid also, and that's rude. Sorry I missed that.
Perhaps you should revise your response to link to the line of comments you wish they'd read.
