I think it’s important to discuss the state of the community every now and then - feedback for mod behaviour, what’s going wrong, what’s going right, what news is interesting, what news is boring, what should there be more of, what should there be less of.

Mods feel free to remove this post if it violates rules, but I think it’s an important discussion to have.

    Calling all Black people monkeys isn’t ok, but calling all Chinese person slaves is?

      Who isn’t a slave of their government these days? Western country have wagies slaving their life away while the government prints money to make housing unaffordable.

      The word slave in this context refers to him thinking that only Chinese people are economically extorted. Not because of their ethnicity but because of their government structure.

      Informing a person is a lot more helpful than just flat out banning them.

        Anyone thinking bourgeoisie extortion is fundamentally different from that of feudal lords need to reexamine the process of appropriation of surplus value.
