I guess my only inquiry there would be did the same suspendion come down on the people who were running rampant saying nuke portland? Because I was NOT the only one discussing controverisal topics. I was largely just offended by the way they kept calling for literally nuking the cities.
my user nameDonor (User) 10 hours, 38 minutes ago
and I really don't think calling for EVEN handed and non discretionary enforcement of the rules is unfair. I mean if I'm not allowed to discuss politics then neither should any of the people literally calling for violence on the cities please tell me tha non selective enforcement is not too much to ask for ?

I don't know the specifics of your case but a decision was made and I trust the judgement made to be fair.

I Fear that the people I'm talking about are insiders and more popular on the site and favoritism was enacted against me because I dissented from majority opinion in the channnel. it was more than likely of the rules posted that I broke the rule against controversial topics if I had to HAZARD a guess but my frustration about this is that I don't know that I was not singled out while everyone else that delved into these topics was openly tolerated and it just wreaks of favoritism in a way the optics are not good on. A majority of the other people in the channel were rural conservatives resentful and angry at the ciites for being left wing enclaves and literally calling for nuclear weapons to be dropped on our corner of the country, and Frankly the people saying it were the majority of #animebytes as a channel i'm not afraid to delve into politics I literally run a facebook account that talks about it as nearly the only thing I ever bother to comment on i barely talk about anything else on there. Maybe Anime, I take a shit ton of Heat for my opinions but I'm a voluntary lightning rod who understands the overton window and that by advocating far more extreme opinions that lie well outside it and taking the blows that come I make more moderate reformers seem more reasonable by contrast so I'm well willing to take social backlash for for instance calling for abolishing the patent system. but that's a whole other issue but this personality quirk is almost certainly what got me into trouble on IRC but my um, discontent is not that it wasn't fair to punish me for discussing thoese topics, its simply that I feel how popular a user happens to be on the site should really have nothing to do with if a rule is enforced against them.
my concern is that I'm a bit of a Misfit with majority views of the issue on here and that the ban hammer only came down on me despite not being the only one to court controversy.

Animebytes and their IRC are literally everything that's wrong with the anime community.
the channel is swarming with Neonazi Right wingers who want to literaly nuke the urban enclaves the techbros that run throuh there and everything they say is super toxic and if anyone at all Dissents from the toxicity in a way that is controversial ohhhh that person gets banned from IRC.
and you know I know you PMED about not calling attention to the site off site but Go fuck yourself.
honestly, if you don't want me to bitch about you off site then kick the Toxic Regulars out.
And that is the problem, before I came to AnimeBytes IRC you let an infestation of neonazis become the community that DID Exist on there and suddenly I come and express more tolerant and inclusive opinions and The ban hammer comes down on me.
When Neo nazis become the Fucking oldbies I'm not the problem it's that you never bothered to clear place of it's roast infestation of people of thought Hitler did the right Fucking thing and we just stopped him.
and I'm kicking myseslf for even inquiring what happened here because being banned?

Now I don't have to deal with the NeoNazi Regulars who YOU let in and never kicked out TEN YEARS Ago the way you fucking should have.
