    Obvious Triggering threads

    Please take a look at this thread:

    http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...tifa-not-Nazis

    Actually, this thread is about..

    1.) Discussing the idea a stereotype of the right wing named "Antifa" are infact "Nazis", which is triggering reactions only as it completely reverts the meaning of the term (AntiFa = abbreviation for Anti fascism)
    2.) The op is using conspiracy theories as arguments ("the press is not reporting about antifa at g20 because they are biased")
    3.) The thread is about politics, while being in the off topic forum
    4.) The thread title is meant as "click bait" by the author, who even says it itself
    5.) The thread uses youtube videos as "evidence"
    6.) The author just tried to trigger reactions. And he got reactions.

    The idea to call "Antifa" "Fascists" or "Nazis" is no opinion, it is nothing but an disinformed lie.

    My opinion: No, the political subforum and the offtopic forum dont need a lax moderation, but a strong moderation, due to the fact there are a ton of political trolls infesting these forums.

    I swear there are more political threads on this site than all other sub-forums here combined.

    Well you're complaing about not getting the response you want and you want threads deleted/locked when you don't like them. You can go find a hugbox somewhere else.

    The threads he's talking about are made just to troll however.
    If MMO-C mods cared at all they would remove thoes.

    There is a reason this site has such a bad rep.

    This is itself a triggering thread, because you are saying that you disagree with something, and as such it should be removed. This triggers me. Please delete this thread. Thanks.

    Just shut down everybody's opinion. There's no room for that here.

    I tried to avoid using the word "trolling".

    I think we need a serious refresher on Safe Spaces, people. Can we get some muscle over here????? Sheesh, where are the Thought Police when we need them?

    I honestly think the distinction is just too hard to make, and deeming certain "opinions" as trolly would also piss off a shitload of people. Maybe some do believe that Antifa are Nazis, however silly that is.

    So? Don't go into them. It really doesn't matter.

    I know you're just trying to brush me away, but the mods are doing that to you so it's pretty funny.

    Wanting to silence any idea that disagrees with your own IS a Fascist ideology. If the thread offends you ignore it.



    And Antifa are basically acting like Fascists. Violently silencing free speech and basically acting like Brown-Shirts for the Democrat party. Did Richard Spencer deserve to get punched in the face? Yes. Should he have been punched in the face? No.

    Calling themselves "Anti-Fascist" doesn't mean they don't use the ideals of the Fascists to complete their goals. I can call myself The Giant Flying Spaghetti monster but it doesn't make it true.

    It's just an outright lie to say "Antifa are Nazis". Antifa is an abbreviation for "Anti fascist", which is the exact opposite of National Socialism. Antifa are far left or left. It is infact trolling, and no opinion.

    A lie is no opinion.

    Example: The holocaust happened. To say "It didnt", is no contrary opinion, but just a simple lie.

    Of course it matters. They would have had no rules at all if it didn't matter.

    They are constantly locking threads and infracting people. I don't agree with that sometimes, but they are farily strict. It's not even a bad thread and follows the rules.

    So trolling is part of the rules now? Or argumenting with conspiracy theories?

    Beside the fact the OP invokes the biggest Godwin ever seen on this forum?

    And beside the fact it is about nationalism, which is against the forum rules?

    Toughen up, Rym. The whole stinking concept of "triggering" is asinine and fostering a generation of oversensitive, self-important, inflexible jerkoffs. Learn to ignore viewpoints you don't like, or post a response in opposition. But the whole "ooh, what he said offends me so HE MUST BE STOPPED AND PREVENTED FROM SAYING ANYTHING ELSE, YOU MUST REMOVE HIS POST IMMEDIATELY!!" is such a joke. What offends you most likely does not offend others. Your viewpoint is not the only viewpoint. You are not automatically right because you are offended.
