Please Stop Covid Related Threads.

[Startrick]

I would like to suggest to include COVID related threads to be banned as are politics or religion.

This forums is plenty of nice and incredible people.

When I see threads about this ITEM I see people fighting for their "beliefs" becoming very angry about other opinions as it happens when we are biased in politics or religions.

LET´S STOP THIS.

Thumbs up for banning now on this type of threads.​

Increase in what you drinking / eating threads.

Agreed, I have been wondering for months why these keep popping up while mods are allowing this. Five posts in and people are flaming at eachother and making them out for things.

 

[Sophia9856]

100% agree with you bro

There is a lot of sarcasm and dark humor in comments.

Moreover, COVID-19 is a religion

 

[Xdfffninja]

It's pretty much a valid thing to discuss in the lounge. Not in support of your idea.

 

[SERPhustler]

+1 for it! Tired of the Covid conspiracy threads!

~Cult~

I don't think they should ban Covid threads. If you don't like them, don't click on them.

Censorship isn't the way forward **COUgoogleGH**

I agree too, it's very exhausting and whatever your opinion, when finally you feel insulted because you think differently it's really sad and not what this community is about.

I'm making pasta tonight

 

[BbHhWwVM]

Well things don't work like that

someone wants to post something = he posts

He won't even search forums to find related topics

No matter who says and/or if you pin thread on top of everything, nothing changes

People love blinkers


Use that to your advantage

I don't know what to think about covid.. don't know if it's real, a hoax, biowarfare weapon, natural disease... I got it and didn't hurt me at all..

I disagree. Covid is a world wide threat, and theirs a lot of unjustified actions being taken by people in power. A lot of people are missing this, and forums are where legitimate information can come to light so we can make fully informed decisions.

Take forums away, and we only have the news to follow.

This forum allows us to share our research with each over and become more informed about a serious topic.

So you are probably wondering "why not just go to another forum" well I like BHW, I know a lot more about the community here than I do on another forum. So I'd prefer getting answers/different opinions here.

Besides, I think BHW would prefer me to be on this forum more than other forums.

You don't have to read these threads btw, you can choose to ignore them. That way the people who enjoy these threads can carry on enjoying them, and you can carry on enjoying the forum. We are both winners if these threads are kept.

As @ZeroDefects said, censorship isn't the way forward if you don't like something.

The reason politics/religion is banned, is because there is no factual data behind these topics at all.. It's just opinions and that's it. With Covid we are sharing facts and opinions to learn more. It's always a good thing to learn about a topic amongst a community that you know a bit about.

Once before I disagreed with this and said that we should talk about COVID.

In hindsight, it's probably worse than talking about religion and politics combined. Fuck it off, it's a pain in the ass more than anything nowadays.

Everyone knows each others' standpoints, they're clearly not changing. Why bother.

There were some OK threads. I mean, something interesting. But always... ALWAYS - people are getting angry in a few first posts because

COVID EXISTS
or
COVID DOESN’T EXIST


In general covid threads would be alright for me, as long as it’s not conspiracy lizard-gates shit. On the other side, if someone posts for example some kind of statistics, research, and so on, blaming him for conspiracy is also not good.

To stop them we would have to create a new rule as there are no rules against generic Covid threads, or almost anything else, in the terms of service.

Maybe we could create a rule that opinions that disagree with mine are banned?

Actually, the rule is that your opinions are banned.

See rule 19.017 in the terms of service please.

You know some conspiracies have turned out to be true, time and time again throughout history. Don't dismiss conspiracy theories so easily.
