Nobody likes being mocked, but if someone is being racist I'm not going to give them any protection from being mocked.

They're fair game.

I don't see why they get any special treatment given their actions towards others.

Karnal trolls those who are being racist by posting like them to shine a light on their stupidity since clearly, the mods don't care about the rules of the forum.

But they're too dense to spot the troll.

It doesn't make the use of the language any better, but the intent is different, if that means anything in this day and age.



ok I wondered about that - so he is actually doing Ozpol a service by bringing it to our attention-  Roll Eyes

Good to know, calling people boongs, sand niggrahs, porch monkeys, is all ok so long as someone on your behalf can point to a claimed subtext and it is for the right reasons, after all, I have only your explanation that that is why Karnal does it. Maybe you are reading intents into Karnals posts that don't exist?  I am sure others will defend Karnal as well, but that is to be expected in a tribal forum and flying monkeys. 

Of course there then comes another subject about the nature of offence and derogatory descriptions, who owns the offence, the left is famously offended on behalf of others, is it legitimate for any one else to feel offence on the behalf of others, maybe they are too dense to see the troll?  What if a boong was too dense, would it still be a troll or would it then be offensive, presumably then becoming inoffensive after someone intelligent explains to the dense boong it's actually not racist to call an indigenous person a boong so long as it is just a light to shine on racism.   Whoooo, that's almost sub-sub textual. 

I agree that difference of intent matters, so I can have fun with that, I can start using similar derogatory words but mine will be a subtle metatextual on derogatory words being permissable for certain members. And it won't be my problem if you are too dense to spot the troll.

PS, I usually let the word filter do its own thing and don't bother getting around it, but in this instance I used the n word and it changed it to black people, so now I know why Karnal changes it to niggrahs.

I felt happy to do so, after all precedent has been set many many times that evading the swear filter is permissible, even Aussie the hall monitor does it.

I too will join Karnal in this honourable quest of using as many racist terms as I possibly can.  Ohhhhh, I can almost feel the virtue signalling goodness of it all.  Smiley

Please see my next post where I clarified my point if you're not just grandstanding trying to justify your own use of these slurs.

Nope.  It has been explained to me this way.

Imagine "duck' was a banned word, and the filter changed it to 'muck.'

It would not be an evasion of the filter to post 'duq you.'

However, it would be an evasion (for which Monk was banned) if you posted 'D_U_C_K you.'

Clear?

(It wasn't and isn't to me either, but that was the explanation.)

Thank you for confirming my point, some boongs good, some boongs bad, depends on who says it, and that is you assuming Karnals motives are pure.  More of that subtext again. It's not the principle, it's the side, and the offended is only free to be offended if they don't understand that Karnal is just highlighting racism.

in your opinion..

not so in others..

to use the word boongs freely   is humourat someone elses expense.....no that isnt humour to me.....


I'm the same. 

Quote:
to see that word in print would be more than painful to many..... I am sure he woujd not get away with using the N word in America under the guise of humour...no matter what...... Angry

and neither he should.....and the same goes for words like he uses......as mock satire...

it doesnt work if you are on the receiving end I can assure you! Angry Angry Angry Angry


We're in agreement.  The usage of these words even if the intent is to troll those with ill-intent is still just a different shade of brown in the spectrum of poo that is racism.

I'm glad he's targeting those people who want to invoke the full meaning of those words, but I can't agree with how he's doing it.
Lol, so what you are saying is that he trolls people who would like to use these pejoratives but dont use them, so he uses them instead to bring their alleged wanting to use them to our attention. Hes just a one man Minority Report then isnt he? Its actually called gaslighting and its a common manipulation technique used by those with a personality disorder which urges them to control others.

No.



So you're saying that I can't call someone a 'suchnsuch' because of some past event that didn't agree with many things in the world I have to live in?
But you think that I should say what someone else says - upon pain of death?

So you mute the simple truth, and tell the elaborate lie?


That wasn't directed at you.

It was 'no' to the question of whether OzPol gives a toss about racism and trolling.

It's pretty obvious  Grin but that's what I like about the place. Seems we have a lot of freedumb of speech (unless we sh1t a moderator off and they ban us).
