> The thinking that IMHO a subset of readers here could get is that you are wanting antisemitism to be considered to be a minor violation here so that you do not have to sanction the antisemitism, as you state that police do not tend to ticket people for "minor" violations. I do not consider statements that could put down Jews to be minor in any setting
That's true, there's the theoretical possibility that a subset of readers could get that idea. I'm willing to accept that risk.
I do consider some statements in some settings to be minor violations.
I remain open to negotiating a compromise. Let me know if you'd like to give that a try.
> A. You are taking back your thinking that one match could start a forest fire.
False. One match might -- but might not -- start a forest fire.
> B. You are taking back your thinking that you do not have a way to determine if , let's say, an Islamic person, or Jewish person or other could be likely to feel put down when they read the insult to their faith here as allowed to stand by you that could lead them to feel put down.
Did I post that? If so, could you show me where?
> C. You are now going to allow statements that could be anti-Semitic to be posted at will here
False. I might allow some statements that I don't see as anti-Semitic, but others do.
> D. You are now going to re right your TOS in the FAQ
False.
