It is not bullshit, it is the truth.
 
You are pushing a deranged and demented view of reality where people are being systematically kicked off of social media because of their skin color or ethnicity when skin color and ethnicity aren’t even recorded as a part of the signup process or discernible by usage algorithms.
 
I don’t know what your skin color is, or what your ethnicity is, and I guarantee if you get “deplatformed” from here it will be for your behavior, not your ethnicity or the color of your skin.

There have been countless deplatformings. Either because they were men who disagreed with women or white people who disagreed with minorities.

Then it must be trivial for you to provide an example of someone being “deplatformed” from a major service or broadcast (whatever that means to you) because they were a white male, and only because they were a white male, and that had nothing to do with their behavior or adherence to the rules or TOS of the service.

You have described your previous bans as having “silencing” you, so let’s use those then as a test of your most recent accusations that I’m “full of bullshit” and lying about what I think.
 
Assuming you self-identify as “White” and “Male”, do you consider your previous bans as “deplatforming”?
 
And do you still believe the only reason you were banned was because of your political beliefs and utterly unrelated to your behavior?
 
@Ainz Ooal Gown  
You just finished accusing me of being a bullshitting liar, so I do hope you will answer my question.

“Assuming you self-identify as “White” and “Male”, do you consider your previous bans as “deplatforming”?”  
No. Because if I say otherwise you will ban me. And you will most likely ban me anyways even with this answer.
 
I didn’t accuse you of lying. I accused you of saying that there were no instances of it happening when, if you look on the internet and you know where to look, you will find instances of it.
 
“And do you still believe the only reason you were banned was because of your political beliefs and utterly unrelated to your behavior?” The reason is because you think that i was acting like an asshole. I have not once desparaged anyone since those bannings. I made certain of that.

Actually there was one instance that it actually occurred. That Theater that actually tried to have a womans only showing of wonder woman. Tho in that instance it was an instance of trying to deny men from attending. Multiple places also ban white people from coming in or at least try to. In fact, any ‘POC’ but white people have carte blanche to make a group and deny entry to white people even tho its illegal for white people to do the same.

I’m not on duty so right now at most I could report you like any other user could. Besides, I’m participating in this thread so I can’t moderate it until some time passes.
 
You’ve been here long enough that you know how that works.
 
The accusation I’m referring to is this.
 
That is bullshit and you know it.
 
I do not know that what I said is bullshit. In fact, I know that what I said is not bullshit.
 
What I said was not an intentional lie told for the purposes of “bullshitting” you. I meant what I said.
 
By contrast, using your terms so we can hopefully communicate better, I believe that what you are saying is bullshit. It is just fear mongering that you are pulling out of your own fears to justify your acting out here, and if anyone calls you on your bullshit you will accuse them of being “bad word” (usually “liberal” or something like it) and then you will declare that everyone else is against you, or personally responsible for some systematic bigotry against conservative white males that you are worried about today.
 
Usually followed by some sort of threat of violent and bloody revolution or some similar end-of-the-world.
 
Despite your (apparently) paranoid claims, this place is not a left-wing hugbox or circle-jerk that is out to get you or whatever you identify as your ethnicity or gender or whatever “identity politics” that you are advocating for.
 
It just isn’t a right-wing hugbox or circle-jerk.
 
And somehow by this place not being a right-wing-only hugbox (or, at least, whatever your wing is - it’s not always clear), or because we won’t ban people who are in your mind represent the left, you can’t stand being here.
 
Very few people here respond to the kinds of “the white males are all being deplatformed” or “the left control everything” far-right nutjob conspiracies that you are into, so you constantly accuse everyone here of being left-wing nut jobs.
 
What I’m trying to say is that the majority of the people here aren’t far enough to the right to even recognize, much less relate to or agree with, many of your identity politics.
 
That doesn’t make everyone else here “the left”. They just aren’t the “whatever your identity politics are”.
 
And you appear to find that super threatening.
 
Maybe you should go find someplace where people also believe that being a white male will get you deplatformed, and where people believe that “the left” control everything.
 
You’ll probably have more fun.
 
You don’t have to prove that we’re all out to get you, or that there’s some conspiracy to drive your personal ethnicity or your gender identity from the site. You can just find someplace more in line with the kind of environment where you feel you can be with friends.

Also “this place is not a left-wing hugbox or circle-jerk”. Right….when people here complain all the time about any right wing person or Trump and/or try to imply that right wing people are somehow bad or evil in some capacity. I find that difficult to believe.

I’m not threatening you. I’m saying clearly hate it here.
 
I’m just suggesting that maybe you should go someplace where your identity politics are not only recognized by others, but welcomed.
 
Because then you might see yourself surrounded by friends, instead of here where you seem determined to categorize everyone else as enemies.
 
And then maybe you can be happier, and feel less threatened by random strangers who have never done anything to you.

No. What i hate is that people here apparently dont see what is going on in society and thinking its not a problem when clearly its building up to be one. Deplatforming people because of politcal beliefs which now includes Credit Card Companies Visa and Mastercard is a terrifying road that we are walking down upon. And yet there are people here that dont see the problem with that. Its like Germany in 1933.

And you and others here complain constantly about left-wing people. Also you and others have people complained (and people CONTINUE to complain) about the left- and right- wing on images and in the Vent thread and the Unpopular Opinion thread.
 
And I believe that Trump is evil in “some capacity”, just as Hillary is evil “in some capacity”.
 
But my impression is that you can’t tell the difference between people being sick of identity politics and nutty conspiracies - no matter which “side” they are on, and people hating “the right”.
 
I just want a fun My Little Pony Picture Site where people don’t attack each other and try to get along, and I’m sick of all the identity politics and people “weaponizing” conversations.
 
Somehow, for you, that seems to mean that I hate the right somehow.
 
When the truth is that the people on the right and the people on the left and even the people in the middle who use this site to push their political agendas are complete and utter pains in the ass.
 
I ain’t on ANY of y’alls political sides.
 
Except the guy who wears a boot and wants everyone to have a pony. I think he might be on to something.

“Maybe you should go find someplace where people also believe that being a white male will get you deplatformed, and where people believe that “the left” control everything.”

You need some professionnal help to deal with your persecution complex, because it can’t be healthy for you to keep going on like that.  
I don’t need a psychology degree to figure out from what you told us about your messed-up childhood that you clearly have some severe unresolved issues, especially when it comes to your relationship to women (I mean, seven abusive ex-wives? I sense a pattern in your dad’s dating habits here).
 
I also just gave examples to your question btw.
 
I once again applaud your goalpost-moving skills by attempting to make it about examples that are not actually deplaforming, as we were previously discussing.
 
Regarding said examples, I guess no man ever got to see Wonder Woman at this theater subsequently, right? (/s)  
Also, about that statement of yours:  
In fact, any ‘POC’ but white people have carte blanche to make a group and deny entry to white people
 
that’s not really my take from the second article you linked, but whatever, congratulations, I guess you’ve discovered that being a racist twat is not actually a white privilege, anyone can do it. Have a cookie!

Tell that to the Jews that had their livelihood taken away because they were jewish. The fact remains that Mastercard and Visa are now politicized to the point that if you even are remotely free speech or conservative leaning you will be denied service.
