I still take a position that I will not engage in ideological censorship. The only censorship I'm willing to do is offensiveness for the sake of being offensive. That doesn't really add anything useful, and it's those type of posts which get me the most shit in real life. Notice that a lot of shit talk about the GOP and conservatives occurs here, and I've never removed any of it, nor asked anyone to tone it down.

splitthis used to be a Democrat and bashed Republicans. At some point she became a religious Christian and her politics went right.

She's always been outspoken and offensive. That's why she was one of the few women among the perversion and craziness that was NWP.

People have only taken negative notice of her here because of the highly polarized political environment of today's world, and her willingness to post outspoken and direct messages about political and social issues, from a right wing religious perspective.

At the same time, she hasn't harmed anyone, and has always treated the site respectfully. She even donated $500 to the freeroll at one point.

At worst she's a political troll, but we have lots of those here.

There are people on this forum with whom I have "history", to where you'd have a reasonable case to assert that I shouldn't have let them on here. split isn't one of them.


I didn’t ask you to censor her. This is why you’ve lost credibility though. Ideological stuff is about opinion. She posts obviously fake shit. Sloppy nailed it. She’s retarded, but you’ll always bend over backwards for someone who votes your way.


I just can’t imagine anything weaker than defending some old bad bag and the same day she’s begging for someone to be unbanned who fucked with my own mother.
