Taken from the forum rules here


Extremist/Racist Posts
To maintain the status quo of the board, there are rules that must be observed so that members do not abuse each other in their passion for their issue or ideology. One of these rules regards Extremist Rhetoric. Blanket statements condemning an entire demographic will not be tolerated. Threads posted for such reasons will be locked. A blatant post directed at a selected group for faults they cannot help, (I.E. Religious beliefs, Physical, Mental, Color, etc...) will probably result in being banned from the site. Furthermore, derogatory comments will be subject to edit or removal by an Administrator or Moderator as they see fit to do so. Threads based on such posts will be locked.

Obviously that refers to extremist and racist posts. I would hardly call what I said "extremist".

I did not condemn conservatism itself. In a way I consider myself a conservative, but I do condemn what conservatism has become and I make that clear in the thread.

No, it doesn't. We lock threads that blanket ANY demographic. In your case, your thread asked the question where had all the intellectual conservatives gone. Obviously, not EVERY conservative is non-intellectual. If you want to ask a more specific question about conservatives that's fine, but you generalized and the thread was locked.

But he didnt say that.

He asked where they all went.

I cant believe you ban this but dont ban this "Dems and The Forrest Gump Effect"

Please PM the person who locked your thread. If that is unsatisfactory please PM David or Learn to Swim. Such matters are discussed in smoked filled rooms that you don't even know about.
