Invade Poland?

I guess it has something to do with you inability to distinguish between AND and OR statements.

Also, additional questions may arise.

oh sigh. one picture worth thousand words.

Do you want to discuss russian rock scene?

Yes, the uneducated masses cruelly proclaiming a guy that openly talked about his racial views and included not one but SIX neonazi rock songs in the soundtrack of his pvp-'magnum opus' (the other 3 might be too, I don't know since I don't know them or speak russian, but since one of them actually included the lyrics "Sieg Heil!" in the chorus, I'm somewhat suspicious) and quotes David Duke as a neonazi and don't want him to represent them regardless of his pvp-prowess.

How dare they?

Such grave prejudice and injustice.

Honestly does the fact he follows a political movement that is almost about to celebrate its 100th anniversary, really matter?

So the creator of that movement and leader of that country was classified as a war criminal. You would be lucky to find many people that were adults during that war.

We have had war criminals leading countries since then and we presumably have followers of their parties in the CSM.

So does his RL political views matter to a Games Politics?

So your suggesting that CCP should ban people in political parties guilty of starting wars of aggression?

Well I suppose that will annoy members of the US republican party, The Australian Liberal Party and UK labour party.

do I think neo-nasis suck, yep personally I do but they still have the right to freedom of speech and political association that they would happily deny others.

No frankly I think I have made my point.

Fair enough

It is my belief that human rights are worth fighting for, your opinion is that they are not.

That is your right.

I'm trying to make my mind whether this natsi thing is some crazy Goon propaganda or based on actual facts, and since this thread went places- could someone link something?

I fully support Fon's platform as what comes to this spaceship game, but would like to reserve judgement about this neonatsi thing.

Not as bad as what I was expecting but definitely not great that's for sure.

OK.

*puts the mop down*

Phew.

That took a while.

OK, let me lay down some ground rules:

1. Discussing the CSM candidate and whether or not he holds a belief is fine.
2. Personal attacks are not allowed. No matter how abhorrent you find another person's belief on the forum, calling them names is not the right course of action.
3. Discussing politics is forbidden.
-This means dredging up laws to support your voting decision is off topic and possible trolling.
-This also means discussing the relative merits of political groups does not belong here.
4. Keep it civil. This goes with #2.

That being said, I pruned this thread with pretty big shears. I am sure I stepped on quite a few toes with the pruning. If you feel that I removed your post in error, please petition this. Sending me hating evemail regarding my removal of your favorite post will not help.

Do not take my choice in pruning as an endorsement of any particular view of the ideas posited in this thread. I tried to remain as neutral as possible regarding this and keep only posts and ideas relevant to the CSM candidacy.
I am only human and I am sure I made mistakes, but if you feel I need a talkin' to, petition it.

Have a nice day and let's try to keep it to the topic at hand...this particular candidate's attempt to be on the CSM.

Thanks, dude. And I 100% agree. Either Fod's statements are unacceptable conduct for a would-be CSM member, in which case he should simply be disqualified for the race, or its a matter of free speech and social accountability, and he should be left uncensored as long as he is not targeting individual players for harassment or anything specifically violating forum rules.

By sterilizing the forums of anything remotely exposing his blatant racism while allowing him to continue in the race, you're essentially setting yourself up for an increased possibility of him being elected. Then you will have just kicked the PR crisis down the road into a realm with MUCH higher stakes for the company, and caused yourself even further headache.

Generally, yes.
Which is why I tried to leave comments that touched on that subject mostly alone, unlesss they were in reply(quoted) other non acceptable comments.

This video was submitted as reaction to stupid trolling campaign my mindless mittani monkeys. =)
Something like you can call him names but he's still 1000x better than you ;P

You've shown (...) lack of cognitive skills in one short sentence. Well done!

Are you hurt by the "college dropout" namecalling? Would you like to talk about it?
Also you've conviniently omitted 100+ page thread about goonswarm racist drivel. care to explain?
