Gorax Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 It seems like people can't tell when a thread is political and when it isn't (I know I sure as hell can't). Could someone please define what makes a topic fit in this forum? Link to post Share on other sites
Eta Carinae Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 The issue isn't whether or not it's political. Of course this thread is political. The issue is the fact that this sub-forum appears to be for political/philosophical issues surrounding asexuality -- and even if that's not the intent, it would be more useful if that were the case. I can get information and discussion on that Marriage Amendment (or on the ethics of one's online gender) anywhere, and so can the rest of you (Off-A being the most immediate example). When I take the time and effort to click on the "Philosophy n' Politics" link and browse through the available threads, I want to see stuff relating to the politics and philosophy of asexuality, not things that I can go elsewhere for.

Zorui Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 oogie- AWESOMENESS AHOY! *signs it and encourages everyone else to do so* *tortures all the "GOD HATES FAGS!!!11!" people! www.godhatesfags.com Last I checked, that was an actual site. Fuckin' sad. Oh, and who wants to see the king of idiotic religious fundementalists! http://www.spies.com/~gus/ran/0012/antiporn/ I shall now mock all of his retarded shit. I want to ban pornography with a 10-year prison term for viewing or participating in pornography Porn doesn't hurt anyone, idiot. Except me. It makes me throw up. That's why I KEY WORDS AHEAD..... *gasp!* DON'T LOOK AT IT! It's really not that hard! , as well as oral and anal sex with a 1-5 year prison term for oral sex and a 1-10 year term for anal sex. Why? Becuase your imaginary friend said so? Actually, i'm friends with a heterosexual Christian, and he told me that the Bible says nothing about those. Therefore, not only is this a stupid law, but not even you have a reason for it. I also want to ban the manufacture and sale of contraceptives (birth control) with a prison term of up to 1 year in jail and/or a fine of up to $5,000 for violating this ban. A woman's body is her property, moron. Plus, if I recall, the fetus isn't aware of anything until about 6 months pregnant. And people probably aren't gonna wait that long if they don't want a kid. If this law *is* passed, and it won't be, all that'll happen is "The kid will have a VERY fucked-up upbringing." I also support a ban on interracial marriage. While I am not racist, I believe that God intends people to marry within their own race. Any and all interracial marriages currently licensed should immediately be annulled, with any children born to said couple, allowed only to marry with other children of interracial couples. All races ought to have equal opportunity in employment, pay, etc. Therefore, I believe that Affirmative Action is racist against white people and ought to be abolished. Yes, sir, you are a racist. And the same Christian friend as mentionend above says that there is NOTHING in the Bible that could be twisted or misinterpreted to say that "God intends people to marry within their own race". I firmly believe that sex should be shared with your spouse and that there ought be be love between the married couple. However, man and wife ought to be of the same color as stated above. Oh, boo hoo. Some people have sex without being married. Guess what. DOESN'T HURT ANYONE. If they're dumb enough to get pregnant, abortion. Oh, but wait! That's unGodly! Silly me! I am in favor of the death penalty for murder (including performing an abortion), attempted murder, rape, incest, pedophilia/child molestation, bestiality, necrophilia, transvestites, treason, spying against the state, espionage, drug dealing, vampirism, adultery, and armed robbery.First, the death penalty is stupid. Second:Murder: This is the only one that I can understand. Abortion: ABORTIONS AREN'T MURDER. The fetus isn't even friggin' alive yet. Attempted murder: As above. Rape: Well, maybe this one. :D Pedophilia: Mental institution. Bestiality/necrophilia: Same. Transvestite: NO. Just... no. I'm not even gonna bother with the rest. I am also 100% against homosexuality and I believe homosexuals (including lesbians and bisexuals) as well as people with fetishes, ought to be put in mental hospitals. This must be done NOW, before they degenerate society and our children's morals even further. I also believe ANY children in the custody of homosexuals ought to be taken away IMMEDIATELY, in order to prevent further emotional and sexual abuse. DO NOT let your children near one of these vile monsters! Read the Fag Facts page to get more insight into the sexual habits of homosexuals and others of their ilk. HOMOSEXUALITY. IS. NOT. IMMORAL. They do not "degenerate society", they do not harm your children's morals (You have kids? They must all have mental problems by now.). Homosexual adoptions would actually help your anti-abortion shit. They could give the baby to some gays who want it. And be surprised if 10% of your fag "facts" were true. I believe in a national dress code. The National Dress Code (NDC) will be as follows: All persons must wear clothing from their neck to three inches below their knees when in public or in the presence of children. Women MUST wear dresses. Trousers are NOT lady-like and therefore, women ought not to wear them. Jeans are to be banned. Any profanity or sexual references on clothing will be banned. Businesses must comply with the NDC. Failure to do so will require business owners to sell their operation to the highest bidder. Failure to obey the NDC will be subject to a fine NOT exceeding $10,000 and/or up to 30 days imprisonment. I don't think I even need to explain why this is THE stupidest idea ever. I am completely in favor of banning the flawed and blasphemous Theory of Evolution from ever again being taught in public schools. It has paved the way for atheism to take root in this country. It has also lead to Kinsey's famous sexual "research" that lead to the sexual revolution. This, in turn, has contributed to the moral decay of America. God created man is his own image and we must never ever forsake His word. If we do, America will end up like Sodom and Gomorrah. Mmmhmm. Violate freedom of speech with a something most accept as fact. And the sexual revolution wasn't bad. And atheism kicks yo fundie ass. I support the good moral crusaders in Washington, D.C. who are getting tougher on the War on Drugs. I am in favor of the death penalty for drug dealers, and for a mandatory 10-year prison sentence for anyone caught with ANY illegal drug, including marijuana. This mandatory sentence will be required for any amount of possession, no matter how small it may be. This will send a strong, decisive message to drug abusers that their use of drugs will not be tolerated by the American public. ...no. I propose prison reform. This will be as follows: Prison cells will be made smaller. I would set this to approximately 1/2 of their average current size. Prisoners kept in their cells 24/7 (i.e. NEVER leaving their cell during incarceration). Prisoners will only be fed bread and butter. NO contact with ANY other human being during incarceration. NO TV, medical care, or entertainment of any sort. NO sunlight will penetrate a prison cell. Disobedient or rebellious prisoners can be beaten by the guards as punishment. ANY inmate that attempts to escape will be executed on site. That's inhumane. I will legalize police entrapment operations so that criminals can be caught by police without fear of a lawsuit, as well as to catch potential and aspiring criminals before they actually commit a crime on their own. I also believe police "brutality" is blown out of proportion and that mild violence towards criminals from the police should be accepted. So is that. I believe in Singapore-style anti-terrorist legislation. I propose that anyone suspected of being a terrorist ought to be required, if necessary, to serve up to 5 years in prison without formal charges being brought forward. This will help stop the wave of terrorism sweeping America today. Oh yeah, people are SUSPECTED of being terrorists, so take away their right to a fair trial. You're getting smarter and smarter! I am a firm believer in the Temperance movement. I believe that alcohol and tobacco cause a great deal of problems in our country today. I favor the return of Prohibition as well as a complete ban on tobacco. Alcohol causes stroke, and leads to cirrhosis of the liver and dropsy. It is also a leading cause of automobile accidents and suicides. Tobacco causes lung cancer (cigarettes) and throat cancer (chewing tobacco) and is, along with alcohol, a leading cause of premature death in this nation. Tobacco and alcohol are ruining America and it is up to the government to take the initiative to once and for all take tobacco and alcohol off America's streets, out of our schools, out of our stores, and most importantly, out of our culture. In order for these goals to be met, we must require all schools and employers to regularly test for tobacco and alcohol, as well as other drugs on a regular basis, and report to the Federal government their findings. Any and all violators will be arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Fuck no, though tobacco does suck. I support a total ban on tattooing. Tattooing is the desecration of one's own body and is indeed harmful. It often causes infections and can result in severe scarring and is very difficult to remove. Therefore, all tattooing ought to be banned as soon as possible. Give me one instance in which tattooing has hurt someone. I support implementing a Federal Anti-Vice Squad (FAVS) that will enforce all the morality laws enacted once fellow moralists are elected to high positions in government. The FAVS will have full search and seizure powers and will be able to, for example, demand a spare key from someone to search homes for pornography or tobacco, etc. The FAVS will also be responsible for enforcing the NDC with patrolling of streets and informants on the streets of America. I hope you're aware that people would form a group to kill all of this "FAVS" 2 days within it being formed. And they're unconstitutional. I support Project Echelon wholeheartedly, as it has undoubtedly saved the United States from countless terrorist attacks and helps fight the war on drugs. Project Echelon monitors ALL telecommunications data for suspicious activity. Well it's invasion of privacy. So too bad. I also support the new Carnivore project underway by the FBI to help catch criminals, including but not limited to: drug dealers, drug users, terrorists, and spies and traitors of the United States of America. I don't know what this carnivore project is, but anyone who betrays America is one of my heroes. I enjoy politics. I hope to run for local office in the near future. If I am successful, I will likely run for higher office later on down the road. I will fight as a moralist. I will try to institute the above goals of mine to restore the traditional Judeo-Christian values that our Puritan forefathers founded the United States upon at Plymouth Rock. Okay. I'll be the first to make an assassination attempt. Once the riot starts. I VERY much hope this is a joke site, mister, otherwise my faith in humanity just went into the negatives.

Eta Carinae Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 Philosophy and Politics is philosophy and politics. it's not the end of the world if they're not about asexuality. I say, post away. From the sub-forum description: Sexuality is considered important enough in our society that the idea of asexuality is fraught with philosophical and sociopolicital implications. Discuss them here.. That is not synonymous with "all philosophical and political discussions go here." The "them" very clearly refers to the "philosophical and sociopolitical implications" of asexuality. No, it's not the end of the world, but it is a waste of my time, and of anybody else who comes to this subforum for the purpose of reading about the political and philosophical issues surrounding asexuality.

The subject line VERY clearly states what issue it was addressing, so just skip it. We don't need someone to police the forums and decides what goes where. I do have to skim over the title every time I visit the subforum, though. And there's the chance that, when the main forum page lists Philosophy 'n' Politics as having new posts in it, they're only in this topic, which means I clicked over to this subforum for no good reason. Furthermore, there's the possibility that the original poster somehow managed to tie the topic in with asexuality, so I'll click on it at least once. So yes, you are wasting my time. Is it really that difficult to post things like this in Off-A? Do you gain anything from posting this here, as opposed to a place where it's on topic? Link to post Share on other sites
