Mods are at it again....

@DrAltoClef posted this because, again, the mods are protecting Nazis.

Recently, I got banned for 24 hours because I told a nazi I'd rather die fighting than let the patriarchy kill me.

How do we save Imgur or where can we go?

I couldn't find my Nazi punching video... but this gets the point.

@@MartynMage tells me to be better because I called out a Nazi. Keeps reminding me that I told him I would meet him

BUT NO ONE BOTHERS TO REMEMBER HE TOLD ME HE COULD KILL ME FIRST.

Don't tell me to be better when I wasn't the person who started it!

*Here is my entire story:
Him: have you ever punched a Nazi
Me: no, but I live my life that they wish I didn't live.
Him: shows picture of me; is this you
Me: yes
Him: I'm a180 6'2 man. I could kill you.
Me: ok if rather die hitting nazis than waiting for the patriarch to kill me.
Him: you wouldn't fight( honestly don't remember what is said)
Me: I invited him to my house, then I told him( what @MartynMage put in the thing)

If any of you non violent people think for a moment that if you don't stand up to them they will just leave you peacefully, you are surely mistaken.

Seriously?
This is the comment he was responding to:
"Funny you think this is OC. OP is just a propagandist for his political party."
A statement of fact.

@OP Please refrain from diminishing the reality that you received a suspension for directly threatening another user with such remarks as "I can be at your house mid July. Please post your name and address in my dms. I'm ready to play this fucking game."

Be better.

For once, you mods arent completely insane. If only all your enforcement was this reasonable, but hey, gotta keep the investors happy, right?

Only after he told me he could kill me. Why is that always left or. Be read @MartynMage .

You be better!!

I don't envy your job :( You organized secret Santa for years, while just one of us and not employed by imgur. Thanks for all you do.

So. He was a one day user.. I've been here 14 years and support everybody. Yet I'm the bad guy. Tell me again the types of users you want?

Sent you a pm

That doesn't make your actions any better. Self-defense claims don't exactly make sense when you're spitting threats at people on the internet.

He threatened me, I simply said I would meet him.

That's a threat....

Simple.

So, simply put, you responded with your own fantasies of violence. "Don't tell me to be better when I wasn't the person who started it" - why the fuck not? Is anything okay as long as someone else behaves as poorly as you do?

You would have not done well in Old Call of Duty lobbies. that's a fact

I'm not a gamer. I mean this in all niceness. Why is my sayg "will meet you" more of a threat than him saying he will kill me? Is it because I wasn't passive in my defense?

It's true on any site that rule violations don't permit other parties to make additional rule violations; one is expected to report the offense and let moderators handle it. There's a concept of self-defense in many countries' laws for physical violence, but this isn't a matter of physical violence and defense against it, because there isn't a realistic and imminent threat. You're right to stand up to that shit, but just understand that breaking rules to do it wouldn't be tolerated anywhere.

I like you. I get it. I understand your sentiment. All of that is true, as I just told my father (because he says I like arguing on the internet). I have stopped being an armchair activist to an irl one. THIS internet altercation made me think my irl choices. Am I really willing to die on this in real life. Yes! And I'm acting accordingly.

So yes. I think all of this is helping. And I have to get band to continue the thinking process. I will.

Transmitting threats online is a felony.

Take a breath and calm the fk down

No, I never threatened him.
