He didn't call anyone the N word. This is entirely different. Sly used the word in an analogy, showing that it was a hurtful and racist term. He did not apply it to any person. It has nothing to do with him thinking the world is a movie, because he doesn't use that word in his regular speech. EVER. I dare anyone to find an incident where he used that word against a person on this site. He used an analogy. People used hateful metaphors toward him, and they were allowed to be posted for 11 weeks in full view. That same person was banned from AF for using the N word themselves, within a week of joining.
Sly does not deserve this. If he was such a racist White Supremacist, I'd like to see the reports that were filed on his BLM posts and the bans that were issued for his "racism" or "white supremacy". There are none.
I got banned from AF for posting 'n-word music'. That's not the same as using the word.
I don't report anyone for anything, so saying a post wasn't reported doesn't mean much. I don't think every post with a racist opinion warrants a warning or any action, that doesn't mean it isn't showing sympathy for actual white supremacists.
If you're angry you can't bully me for saying the truth, get over it. The fact that you're very angry doesn't make you right. You attacked me needlessly (in defence of Sly) for speaking the truth. You guys have tried to get the mods involved and it failed because I wasn't in the wrong. Get over it and move on with your lives. No one wants you to leave but I'd appreciate if you'd stop bullying me.
I'm not "very angry". I'm very thorough. I reported instances where you threatened to put him in hospital, and you called him horrible derogatory terms, saying we should quarantine from him because he had a dangerous infection. The mods agreed your language was inappropriate and they dealt with it.
I'm not a bully. You believe that people who make reports are bullies / snitches who get stitches / and fragile lying victims, but the mods asked us to make these reports. They appealed for information of how to make WP a better place.
If anyone on this site believes I am a bully for reporting malicious speech against other members, or for following the rules, please let me know. I've yet to see a disclaimer beneath the WP rules stating that nothing should be reported, or that people who report should be publicly shamed.
The way I see it: it's not a good vs evil fight. It's a series of misinterpretations that escalated to really toxic level. There is no villain to kill in this story. There is a lot of toxicity to neutralize instead.
From my knowledge of you all, all the people involved have very strong triggers. Sly reacts super strongly to anything that resembles bashing or rejection, even if others don't intend it. FXE is really sensitive to anything connected to white supremacism. Your triggers collided, leading to really disastrous escalation.
At least this is how I see it. The world is crazy right now and no wonder this craziness leaks into our forum.
