>>12178Currently against. Gore is considered shock material like scat and fetish porn. I see no issue with it if it's signposted and spoilered (just like hardcore porn threads) but similarly to incel threads, I also see how it encourages an edgy atmosphere that is more welcome on other imageboards.

Horrible meme.
Also
If your "validity" is based on someone else telling you are a girl (especially if they have ideological reasons to validate you)… you need to stop being naive. If you're trans, you're pretty sure that you are, if you're having a lot of doubts, you're probably just confused and stressed. Transitioning is a commitment you should consider heavily and objectively before engaging in it.
>inb4 "muh /pol/"
I have nothing against trans people, but if you actually care about these people, and aren't just shilling ideological dogma, you have to think about individual people and the needs they personally have, and not the social trends radlibs and glowfags on social media shill. People shouldn't "encourage" them because people need to make their decisions independently.

No.12578
There have been 5 votes for banning gore, but no rationale apart from (to summarize) it doesn't contribute to the site, which applies to most of /siberia/.
It seems the real issue is with /i/diots using it as a controversial issue to incite drama to try and ruin the site, but I haven't yet seen a convincing reason why gore itself (as a legitimate interest topic, suitably spoilered and declared) is any less acceptable than BBC, furry porn, or other 'deviant' and frequently revolting interests. Just don't click the spoilers and hide the thread.
It really feels like most of the recent rules have been 'stop liking what I don't like' and that's a destructive precedence. The solution should be to stop tolerating dramafags, not to ban their topic-of-the-day. Please reconsider your positions on this vote.

No.12593
>>12578the fundamental issue as to why these votes have gotten more prominence recently when in the past we did it more informally as anti-raider tactics as you talk of is largely because of the big conversation we had a week or two ago about the ruleset and how it could be vague and unclear on what was situationaly banned and what wasn't. we largely aren't voting on a perma-ban on gore within the ruleset, hell, we are already effectively banning gore a la what you suggest now (targeted against the /i/ raiders mostly), but the codification of it as outright banned within the ruleset would deter most people from posting it and inadvertently getting banned, while like the idpol rule we could situationaly allow (and very explicitly and strictly moderate) the conversation so it can be "productive", however much productive gore threads can ever be.
tl;dr its a half-measure with a load of legalese innuendo meant to make it clear that we have a strict mandate to ban gore threads as needed, but as per most of our rules, there is enough flexibility to allow threads as we deem fit. unless we make a good solution to having a short list of de-facto banned things, this sort of de-jure system is the best way to not get innocent randoms caught in the crossfire of banning raiders.
theoretically anyways, I don't think we ever had a gore thread in siberia prior, so I kinda imagine this is all just a giant spam effort by outside actors, but I digress. No.12810
>>12176"Troon, Ayshire" is my winner.

The word you're looking for is homophone, and no, neither is that "99%" of reddit humor (source: your redditor ass) nor is it bad humor. You really don't understand the meaning of "reddit" on chans, do you? It's statistically impossible for there to be 100% exclusivity of memes on either site, it's the reason they're MEMES dumbass. Reddit shit is stuff like liberal takes on politics or the need to censor slurs obsessively to the point of obscenity. Reddit does not have a Troon filter or almost any filters at all, it just has bots ban people for saying "de evul vurd".

reposting SocDem's case for "Troon, Ayrshire" over "cute girl":
>when you filter a term from negative to positive, it's easy for the person who made the filtered post to assume that it's been done because the site's userbase is just sensitive and offended by that term, reinforcing a view that they're basically correct to use it and that the site is oversensitive. when you filter it in a more neutral way i think it helps to convey that the problem isn't that this term or that term is particularly offensive, but that it's tedious and unoriginal, or obviously marks one as an outsider posting bait.>in this particular case I like the elegance that would come with a filter that leaves the originally intended term intact (so obviously users aren't hurt by the word!) while still showing contempt for how the poster has let slip their lazy, cliched, idpol-brained thinking by making a joke of it. ideally i'd like a filter that makes people who make such posts to go "wait, what?" rather than "haha triggered!!" - it's subjectively funnier and potentially more productive if it leads to them making better posts in future.>>12838>has something to do with cows or live stock ?where did you get that from?

No.13009
>>12999I'm going to summarize 3 points about why it should be troon, Ayrshire and not "muh cutie"
1 - removing "troon" demonstrates that we're sensitive enough for it to get under our skin. Reinforcing the view that they're right to use it and that /leftypol/ is oversensitive. Using the word but messing with the meaning turns the joke around on /pol/
2 - After 1 time the filter is going to be known by posters and they'll get around it fast, till including the word minimizes the motivation to do so in the future
3 - it's creative and less boring because, to be frank, Ayrshire is not a place I knew much about before this filter proposition
4 - Troon is so underused on his site that a filter is pretty much unneeded, if you're gonna have one, then completely removing the word validates its impact on you to /pol/ - if a stupid internet buzzphrase triggers you this much you need to re-evaluate your priorities and sensitivities, because there is A LOT more important things to be offended by or outraged over than a casual slur on an imageboard.

I guess that is a warranted concern
This could be counteracted tho by filtering all the reddit social exclusion words, like "tankie" to "beloved comrade".
We could filter "class reductionist" to "class conscious" that would probably ward off the red neoliberals from reddit.
>transhumanist is a slurNo it originated in scifi for people who want to put technology in their bodies, it doesn't have any inherent negative connotations.
I guess the line between technology based body upgrades and self mutilation can be a little blurred, if medical and ethical standards are lacking, and it turns into a mindless merging with the machines mindset. But on the other side stuff like amputee-prosthesis and eye-glasses are also technically transhumanism.

A) an utter lack of humor and creativity in the face of slurs and insults
B) proves the rightwing meme about us being "over sensitive troоns" because of the filter to such a "cutesy" liberal term. Like I said in the beginning, if you get validation from a word filter you need to seriously rethink your priorities.
