How does one link a specific blocked comment in the mod log? I don't see any way to do this?

PugJesus is like the Ur-Liberal (derogatory)

We are not restricting discussion (those are your words) because this is a life and death situation.

we are removing purely speculative and baseless assertions of fact, because this is a life and death situation.

So one, like I said, it's not really a life and death situation. And secondly, in the immediate aftermath of an event, practically everything is speculation.

You are just lying about your class status, you already admitted to living a lifestyle that matches with the upper percent of people.

Genocide at home upsets you .. except when I mention the AIDs crisis and you claim that Trump is a uniquely terrible politician.

The only reason Biden is sending fewer weapons to Israel than Trump might, is because he is marginally responsive to the criticism you denounce people for.

So you're allowed to criticize Biden for being old (which is the reason he is facing wide-spread criticism right now. that's the confidence you are talking about, unless there is some other narrative I am unaware of), but not for genocide. Huh.

Yeah, it's notable that computer programmers are also over-represented in this survey.

You said you are restricting discussion on whether the assassination was staged because it is a life or death situation. You have not provided compelling evidence that one form of speculation is more or less "life or death" than another.

He said Monday’s decision — which gives presidents broad immunity from prosecution — is “vital” to ensure a president won’t have to “second guess, triple guess every decision they’re making in their official capacity.”

😬😬😬

Yeah, last thing I want is for the president to have to think through their decisions.

So you're making moderation policy based on an assumption that people who have been exposed to the idea that the shooting may have been staged are more likely to incite violence than people who haven't been? You don't have source for that stance do you? One could argue that believing it is a failed assassination attempt would also incite people to violence. If a comment in particular calls for violence, thats one thing, but what you're saying is not logical.

Speculating on an event that has already occured is not a "life or death situation" in the way spreading information that discourages the use of life-saving vaccines is.

I wonder if there isn't a lack of people brewing outside the rich white man demographic... but more that they inhabit different social worlds so they aren't seeing each other.

Love how this one is upvoted 😭 like they're saying "yeah 😀"

I have not seen that episode ☹️

"widely speculated" ... like I said, I don't think it was staged, but it's clear that most of what is being stated the day after this event is speculation.
