Oh okay, what was the op ? Like what in the op specified what a covidiot is or the parameters of the thread ? Could you quote it because I must have missed it.

I assume if a thread has a vague op then it's inherently allowing for a boarder range of interpretations and looser associations.

A covidiot for me is anyone who listened to the state over covid, and parrot the covid cult party lines and go around like micro Gestapo.

A moderator posted that warning immediately after your post in this thread, so you do not have to know what is the subject of the thread to know that continuing the same discussion you were warned to stop is not permitted.

Furthermore, you asked that question on a previous page, and multiple people—including me, the person who started the thread—already answered you.

So at this point you are either playing dumb, or it is not an act. Either way, your off-topic posting is not permitted or welcome in this thread. Get on-topic or get reported. Your choice.

Guys. This thread isn't a general Covid thread. Until another one is opened, please refrain from posting things that aren't on topic.

I mean, I don't even like this thread, but fair is fair.

I didnt see that pr said that. So in this case it's more so based on a mod saying his piece and not due to anything in the op or how that corresponds to the rules of staying on topic.

So is this an ideologically slanted thread, aimed at shaming the unvaxxed and celebrating any harm that comes their way ?

It's a darwin awards of anti-vaxxers getting COVID.

Oh okay, I get it now. Sorry for going off topic.

I mean, that may have been the intent, but the truth is Poe never outlined a thread purpose. Hard to go off topic when there never was one.

Just saying.

Yeah, that was my point of contention as well.

You idiot, that child probably has heart issues that are totally unrelated to the vax, even tho it's one of the main side effects that anti mRNA people worry about.

There is no more plausible deniability. The subject of the thread was explained to them, and a moderator warned them to not continue posting off-topic in this thread. So any off-topic posting they do in this thread is a deliberate attempt to derail the discussion against moderator warnings to get the thread closed. Let us see if they actually get disciplined.

This thread can stay as is for now. People being off-topic that have been warned not to be, will be banned.

As far as other covid threads go, it's been made clear most if not all of you cannot have any kind of discussion in good faith, so I don't expect any to get made that will stay open for very long. Maybe after a mass banning, who knows. But for now it's a non-starter.

So your response to me saying I don't believe you can be civil with each other is to... not be civil?

Okay then, change my mind. Why should we allow a covid thread?

I have a question, what is the problem with the COVID threads from your point of view, for me it is people gaslighting an alternative reality where tinfoil hats are derigour and facts are merely something to be quoted without honest and truthful objective analysis. But what is the problem to you, and if I may expand, the other moderators. Do you have the same problem with the COVD threads or do you guys share different versions of reality, like the the posters here.

Me personally? Two things: Covid misinformation and how people talk to each other. I've already banned people for the former. I have no problem banning them for the latter in future too.

Other mods? You'd have to ask them.

O.K. That's fair enough. I agree it would be nicer if people were polite but the main people propagating Covid misinformation are trolling for a reaction. I think we can agree on this too.
