So how does this shithole keep running given the sheer number of bans it has? Its userbase was never especially big and it's not growing all that effectively.

Alt-accounts after being banned. Resetera close their eyes on it, as long as it's not obvious. The banned people come back under different pseudos, all the time. I created something like 20 accounts for Kiwifarms members and other people, none of them have been banned for using alt...

I don't browse their shithole anymore, but, like I said earlier in the topic, I'm quite close to one of their mod. She's playing a role with them, she only cares about banning people and drive member mad.

Today in ResetEra's fetish for massive state social engineering on topics on which they can't even Wikipedia first:

We need food regulation in the states like yesterday.

Obesity rates are skyrocketing, health issues caused by it are at an all time high, and sugar is in basically everything that's mass produced. This shit needs to stop and it won't if we keep sitting on our asses and letting the big food corporations keep doing what they're doing. We regulated...

Who cares? It's people doing it to themselves.

Sure you can make an argument that government subsidies distort the market and make unhealthy food cheaper, especially in the case of sugar versus corn syrup, but the fact is that people are too lazy to make their own food.

Let them eat cake.

I think I'll trust the people who can't even remember that the FDA exists and want a tasteless female kid size meal imposed on everyone. They care.

I don't think a bunch of neckbeards and legbeards on ResetEra are in any position to provide any solutions to solve obesity.

It's like watching an overweight bullshido master claiming they can knock you down on the floor with their bullshit martial arts and stuff.

Surprised that first dude wasn't banned for fat shaming.

And Cerium just updated the newly massively long rules to specifically include that too:

General Guide to ResetEra

Body Shaming

Health and economic concerns regarding obesity are legitimate topics of discussion. Not all comments at the expense of obesity will be moderated. However, members should not go out of their way to be cruel or dehumanize a person solely because of their physical appearance. If it is determined that such behavior had no other motivation or basis besides looks, a ban will be issued. Inflammatory generalizations on this subject are not welcome.

 

[SilkGnut]

How beautifully vague.

Trying to understand the wording, is it saying that the only punishments are being handed out it a member was cruel/dehumanizing solely because they think the person in question is ugly? Ergo as long as your insults are based in hatred for them as a person and not just on physical attributes they are allowed?

 

[AirdropShitposts]

That's probably outlawed in one of the other parts of that section:

Hate Speech and Groups

We do not allow behavior or rhetoric that attacks or discriminates against users based on race, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion or disability. We also do not tolerate 'slut shaming' including the demeaning of sex workers. This policy extends to support of hate movements, online or offline, that are dedicated to the promotion of the above. We ask that you not use slang or terminology coined by or associated with hate movements.

Dismissive and Disruptive Behavior

Low effort, inflammatory, or insensitive drive by posting is always unacceptable. However, it is especially inappropriate in serious and sensitive discussions. Threads involving race, gender identity, sexuality, sexual assault or harassment, sexualization of minors, or any marginalized minority groups should be approached with sensitivity. Dismissive or disruptive behavior in these threads will be usually be met with a ban. The following are examples of such behavior:
Dismissing the importance of issues that concern women or minorities and/or denying the experiences of users affected by these issues.
Lamenting or mocking the sensitivity or “outrage" of others in reference to legitimate concerns, or claiming that members are pretending to be offended.
Condescendingly talking down to people who are affected by sensitive issues.
Trying to derail the discussion such that it is no longer about the group of people that are affected by the issue.
Attempting to shut down the discussion altogether.
Framing support or defense of abhorrent views as questions in order to make them seem acceptable, and/or as a means of shifting the burden of proof on to others.
Please note that dismissing, downplaying, or making light of sexual assault allegations will lead to a lengthy ban.

Inflammatory Generalizations

Context and intent will matter here, but take care to avoid making inflammatory generalizations that are likely to cause offense. This includes generalizations regarding gender, race, sexuality, nationality, and ethnicity. It can also apply to inflammatory accusations made against large groups or communities of people. Always try to make nuanced points rather than broad and sweeping statements.

Inflammatory Defense/Support

Defending heinous behaviors (especially those related to bigotry) or supporting individual public figures who are guilty of the same can constitute inflammatory posting, even if the tone of your post is otherwise mild. Note that members found trying to abuse this policy to bait others into bans will instead be moderated themselves. This policy is intended to guard against provocation, not encourage interrogation.

Inflammatory Comparisons

Inflammatory points of comparison and false equivalences can needlessly escalate or derail an argument. You should not, for example, equate bigotry with intolerance of bigotry. It is usually best to avoid extreme comparisons in general, such as those involving loss of human life or serious issues like human rights. If you must make such a comparison, please make sure that you're doing so for a very good reason.

Body Shaming

Health and economic concerns regarding obesity are legitimate topics of discussion. Not all comments at the expense of obesity will be moderated. However, members should not go out of their way to be cruel or dehumanize a person solely because of their physical appearance. If it is determined that such behavior had no other motivation or basis besides looks, a ban will be issued. Inflammatory generalizations on this subject are not welcome.

Personal Attacks and Vitriol

On this site our members include video game enthusiasts, industry professionals, and members of the press. All members deserve certain courtesies. Do not engage in personal attacks or insults against other users. It is perfectly fine to challenge a poster in a civil and constructive manner, but ad hominem should be avoided and can get you banned depending on the situation.

This policy extends to game developers as well. While it may be frustrating that a game did not meet your expectations, it is not constructive to attack developers in personal terms or claim that they are lazy. This kind of vitriol is not only disrespectful but has a negative effect on discussion.

When it comes to journalists covering the video game industry, critique of their work is welcome and often important. However, personal attacks and unsupported accusations or conspiracy theories do not generate good discussion. Please also avoid dismissing or vilifying entire outlets for petty reasons.

The rules also have a section specifically for a hot topic:

Israel and Palestine

Threads about the Israel/Palestine conflict are some of the most contentious and difficult to moderate. While we have tried being more hands off in the past, these threads have tended to escalate out of control when they are not tightly moderated. As a result, we now enforce four primary rules to keep these threads as civil as possible.
Do not conflate civilians with their leadership: This means you should not conflate all Palestinians with Hamas or attempt to paint all Palestinians as terrorists. You should also not hold all Israelis responsible for the actions of their government.
Do not condone violence or killing: This goes for both Hamas and the IDF, especially with regard to civilians.
Do not deny the right of either Israel or Palestine to exist as independent states.
Due to historical considerations, the term "Nazi" is not appropriate or acceptable when used in reference to Israel, Israelis, and Jews. This includes comparisons between the Israeli government/IDF and Nazi Germany. You are welcome to criticize Israel in all other ways, but that specific analogy is off-limits, period.

Why is it any of their business? Why do they feel like they have to care?

I know they're authoritarian assholes, but what leads people to that kind of thinking where they can't be honest about their retardation?

Because they have nothing better to do with their own lives, that's why.

Some of them are straight up admitting it's because they don't want to pay higher taxes, they sound like REPUBLICANS:

We can't afford healthcare costs as it is, imagine what it's going to be like when the majority of american's have diabetes. We're quickly getting to that point and it's only going to keep getting worse unless we address it with legislation.

To be fair, I don't want to have my health insurance premiums going up (in the US) because people are eating junk (mostly the fault of companies/businesses that put junk in their food). Yes, people talk about Medicare for All here in the states, but that does absolutely nothing to prevent people from eating junk and later being hospitalized with cancer, diabetes, heart diseases, etc.

I like how none of them even approach considering how enforcement would be handled to maintain their system of rationing to prevent "calories consumed over the quota" allotted each person. Considering this is a forum where all cops are automatically bad and probably should be abolished. (Except when you should call the cops like if someone misgenders you.) Let alone considering how the system would disproportionately target minorities and the poor who favor high calorie per dollar foods.

It reminds me of the thread where a bunch of these fine progressives were borderline demanding the U.S. or NATO or the UN declare war on Brazil to stop them from cutting down any part of the Amazon rainforest as otherwise we'd "literally" have to do without oxygen.

It's almost like they only have one solution to everything they consider a problem: force.

 

[SiccDicc]

Honestly, a better system would be to make gym mandatory and if they're concerned for feelings getting hurt divide by weight class. Consider moving up a good thing if you're skinny and moving down a good thing if you're fat, gives kids something to strive for and actually do in gym. But what do I know? I'm just a cranky American sick of people telling me what to eat and how much.

I don't wanna doubt you, but I have a real hard time believing there's any non-true believer types as mods. They're too fucking insane to not let in someone outside of their clique. I mean, we've seen a few shit-stirrers from here and elsewhere get in and manage to front long enough to stay unbanned while creating as many disruptive threads and comments as possible, but this feels like a different league.

Does it never hit their mind that these obese fucks shouldn't be given insurance or health coverage at the same rates at non-obese people? Do they ever consider the fact that if it weren't for government law and regulation surrounding healthcare that fat people would have absolutely no effect on anybody else?

(No, and no.)

They're authoritarian cunts who want to legislate their views and use men with guns to tell everybody else to conform. Fuck them, they deserve their hell but please god let me out of it.

well they'll only use men with guns AFTER they take all of yours away.

They're pro-gun but only when they're allowed to be the only ones with them.
