People have been banned for far, far less than expressing the amount of hate she gets from certain areas.
I've honestly never seen it. If it's not directed at another poster, all kinds of vitriol tends to fly. And it's not like it's not substantiated by facts. I'm genuinely curious of why there are eggshells here.
The dots don't connect themselves, otherwise a vocal majority would be aware of just what the fuck you're referring to. What's actually happened is you've connected the dots yourself in a bespoke fashion that leans towards a fallacy you've created, rather than the extremely valid reasons people have given.
The hate Thatcher inspires within reasoned, law abiding citizens with a sound moral compass should demonstrate the scale of hurt she produced, and tell you that this goes way above gender.
And if the reasoned hateful response is possible, why are people holding back on it here? I've honestly not seen any kind of ban on someone expressing political opinion as long as it's not racist/sexist/insulting a poster directly.
If I'm wrong, I'll back down on my assumption, but I still haven't seen what else it could be.
They just mean they want to do a huge expletive ridden rant, its fairly clear and obvious
Again, I've never seen that get banned on its face if it's not directed at another poster or just really dumb/hateful in some way (and there seems to be plenty to back up their rant here)
...where has anyone brought sexism into this thread (except yourself, of course)? You're projecting. I don't know enough curse words to describe my hate for the woman. but I certainly don't hate her because she is one. She would've done the same shit as a man.
Oh, and thanks for calling me a sexist, that's really made my day, that has.
I dont think I saw you among the opening posts of people saying they'd get banned, so I wasn't really referring to you, I don't think. But I apologize for it if it's making you feel bad. Maybe I should reel the rhetoric back a bit, but I'm still wondering what could have been so bad that it couldn't be said without surely getting banned.
Eh? Not seen anything of the sort here. I imagine there's a lot here who don't want to be banned for saying very harsh words over someone who gained huge notoriety here and hasn't even been dead for a day.
Again, I don't see how making mean comments about a politician's rule is so controversial, even if they died. It's very odd for so many people to fear the ban hammer over it.
It's because GAF is sometimes sensitive to bashing the dead, not because they're holding back sexist remarks.
Perhaps, but many seem to be in agreement that her policies were controversial, at best. Again, I've never really seen someone banned over reasoned political views as long as they weren't outright offensive. Even dead people's.
