Looks like my posts will all be heading to the Ring. No explanation, just gone from the Courthouse.

Thanks for the update, Heartless. I had wondered where some of my post where, previously i thought that I had hit cancel rather than submit.
For Example"
Koobookie,
I neither expect you to believe or consider. I paraphrase a previous poster, " I can explain it to you but I cannot understand it for you."
Please reference Fox 35 Orlando, Fl to peruse the material that they have amassed.
But again, you have show the remarkable ability to ignore or deflect when there is an opinion that is in opposition to your views. No problem,
I am not addressing you (except for the salutation) rather the larger audience of readers on this site.
By the way, have you had an opportunity to educate yourself as to what he CDC considers a case of Covid-19?"
Evidently this offended the sensitivities of the moderator. No explanation was given as to why it ws not posted and I never would have thought that it was diverted to the Ring. Perhaps the moderator is the the poster that I referenced.

The video removed and put in the Ring was another #walkaway from Lorenzo Lamas a Hollywood actor. Apparently, showing people leaving the Democrat party is now taboo.

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Well one of mine just landed in the Ring dumpster. I couldn't see anything in my post that would offend weak minds other than possibly three letters T D S.
I spaced them apart here to make sure nobody was triggered.
As for the Ring, I've always thought it was rather silly for a forum populated by adults. It's like if I tell my liberal neighbors that I'd like to talk politics without calling each other names or berating each other in my living room. But if we step into my garage, we can say anything we want to each other because it's a dirtier room and what we say to each other won't have the same meaning as it would in my living room.

I think the idea is that in the garage the kids can't hear you.

In terms if the election we are getting down to the short strokes.
The MSM have been controlling the messaging for a long time. In spite of what they say to congress the major social platforms have also been stifling free speech also.
TDS is the worst derangement I have seen since the tulip hysteria since the 1630's. I think we can expect censorship, looting, violence and rioting to just get worse until the election if not beyond.

And kids can't look in the ring because it says you have to be at least 18. Yeah, that should do it.Blazer Bob wrote: I think the idea is that in the garage the kids can't hear you.

Heartless, if you were being censored, your posts would be deleted, your threads locked, and you booted from the forum. "All of your posts are heading to the Ring"? Please. Look at the facts - how many are still here in the Courthouse? Everything you've posted can still be read by any of our members; please, tell me how is that censorship?
The Courthouse is for discussing issues, not spamming viewers with video after video or insulting others. Telling someone they are suffering TDS is an insult. "It’s amazing that your TDS prevents you from seeing that injustice." was the exact quote. Discuss the issue, not the person for their beliefs or it gets moved - this is your living room Rick, not your garage. This forum will be civil discussions of issues and public figures or we can merge the entire Courthouse into the Ring, it's up to all of you.
ramage, that post you quoted isn't posted anywhere here on MMT, so it was not moved to the Ring. If it's not here, it's because it never got posted in the first place. You can go to your Profile Page and see all of the posts you've ever made, the last one of yours that was moved to The Ring was on August 1. We don't delete posts. Ever.
Election years always make tempers short, but that is no excuse to treat each other rudely. The rest of the internet is a cesspool of trolls, jerks, and disrespectful, outrage-fueled garbage. I don't want or expect this place to be all sunshine and roses, but I have made it abundantly clear of the expectation that we will treat each other civilly here while sharing our viewpoints or we can stop discussing politics altogether. Your choice.

HMMM, that is a tough one. It is in the dictionary of acronyms.
"ACRONYMS DICTIONARY
TDS
WHAT DOES TDS MEAN?
TDS is an acronym for Trump Derangement Syndrome, a term applied to people who express deep loathing and fear of President Donald Trump. It's usually used by Trump supporters for liberals."
So the question becomes how to say that in an acceptable way. How about " Your extreme distaste for that horror of a human being President Trump seems to me influencing your views in a way that I think is incorrect".
Or would it be acceptable to use the acronym "yedfthoahbPTstmifyviawtitii"?
