Topic: Is there discrimination in the forum (Read 821 times)

I think it is open on the forum. Everyone’s speech is free. In some discussions, everyone may have a different point of view and a different way of understanding the problem. After all, different people from different countries discuss this forum together. Yes, the forums communicate with each other. There is no way to control the comments that make you feel bad. You can choose to ignore him. Countries have different perspectives, and there is no way to make them feel the same.

"Is there discrimination in the forum"

Yes between forum members however the forum itself is so nondiscriminatory that it allows it.


Here are a couple of your own quotes from the topic you're referencing

You said:
"China will not go out because it does not want to get a vaccine or wear a mask, because China's education penetration rate is much higher than that of Western countries. Nor do they drink disinfectant water to prevent covid-19."


I'm American----we don't drink disinfectant water to prevent covid-19
P.S. I didn't vote for the president who said that ;-)

You said:
"Everyone has a say, and everyone decides the direction together? No, there will never be a consensus, there will always be stupid people who cast their stupid votes.
So my dear, “free-thinking puppet”, can you still live under your caste system??"


I'm not judging (too harshly), I have strong negative feelings about caste systems as well, just pointing out how easy it is to act in  what could be considered a discriminatory fashion (because you did).



It's good that you are searching the forum for clarity, however; not always so good to create entire threads because you have a disagreement with someone on the forum (use it sparingly). It looks like you will fit in just fine as long as you realize how quickly sharp words can escalate.

Also economics is exactly the right section for that post:
China has ironically been the closest thing to free market capitalism for the past 30-40 years *except for its government's ability to halt it at will.

And this is one example why China gets frequently discussed here...

discrimination breeds in all corners of the world, it's in humans' mind of the globe
the atmosphere here in our forum is way better than that of reddit where a large number of users despise Chinese and the colored. bad thing
understandable if someone resents China because this country released some policies to bring the price of cryptocurrency down. But I feel it understandable as well for at that time, many of its citizens fell for cryptocurrency and went broke, it's recommended for government to control the situation and we all know that governments of almost all countries are trying to find a way to rein crypto market, that offered me a great opportunity to buy in the dip...
our forum is good, as of now. it's few users to blame.

Lol what ?!  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/black-crimes-matter-the-817-serial-predators-5259552

People here come from different countries and different civilizations, and people experience different things. Sometimes what we see in the media may be completely opposite to what they are suffering. You can speak your own opinions, and of course you have to respect the right of others to express their opinions. What you think is completely up to you.

I have reviewed all your posts, your views on China or India are based on all your education, so please also accept other people’s views that are different from yours

It is a forum, the debate of ideas is the priority even those that are not, but that in any case the important thing here is that the "rags" and "diapers" are washed on each board where the discussion begins. Unless required by cheater, liar, etc. but there is even a report button there.

Some time ago I saw a similar title for another Topic, I think that this type of subject is very far from the reality of the good vibes that exists even when you can have different opinions.

This is an internet forum dedicated to Bitcoin. Every other kind of discussion like Politics & Society, Off-Topic and Serious discussion do not belong to the same category and they're surely very subjectively discussed. These are the reason why most of the forums decide to write rules; some people may be easily offended and some may easily offend.

Yes, you see this is one of the forum's problems. People avoid posting on the subforums whose campaign isn't paying, no matter if they suit the topic in the proper section.

Just an addition; Hitler wasn't “just” a dictator, but a nazi. This was much more intensive socially and economically.

It's quite literally all in your mind

If you "get triggered" based on what someone far far away types on his computer, you should seriously reevaluate your priorities in life!

I am sorry I misunderstood what you mean by saying there is a lot of people from different backgrounds and I thought you mean it was acceptable because of that reason I am not trying to argue. I agree with you if you mean that there is a lot of people and its impossible to control their actions without taking freedom of speech away but we should hold them responsible  if they are being racist. We have the trust system and I think leaving a neutral feedback for being excessively racist is a justified response.

People hiding behind a computer screen are more aggressive then they would be in person I think everyone gets more triggered online because of that reason.

Adapt to the whole internet itself, OP and not just here in the forum.

Do you play video games? In some gaming community, you'll encounter a lot of people saying "git gud", "nub u suk" "ur mom is _____ ", "*insert racist words here*" and I am not sure how you take that word if someone told you that when you are not performing well in your game.

You mentioned that you're thick-skinned person outside the internet and that would be a perk for you to adapt around the internet, especially that you don't even know nor see the person you're interacting with around the internet.

.

Seeing this conversation, I almost laughed, I support you to enter the cheeky gang.

I'm still getting used to this name. You know, it often takes a while to get used to a personal setting.

yes, I will slowly adapt to the forum.Nothing is more important than "Thick-Skinned“

lol is interesting. Can I join? Or I need to add a few centimeters to my skin.

What exactly are you disagreeing on, that people aren't racist or what? I never said they have a right to be racist but just giving a heads up. One way or the other we all have a little bit of racist behavior in us. Some are obvious than others but it's what it's. You can't stop people from been who they are or who they want to be, even in the so called civilized world that you'll think due to the fact that they are more educated they shouldn't be seen exhibiting racist behavior yet they're by far more racists found in those part of the world, talk less of a forum that give individual the power to hide behind their computer and becomes bullies.

Sure if you see someone not doing the right thing, it's required of you to take action in trying to convince that user to stop but when they don't, you don't have to kill yourself over what you don't have any control of. You just have to move on, you're just letting them win when you make them realize that their actions are hurting you, instead if them stopping, they'll take it a step further.. If anyone is been racist towards you, you just have to ignore them or if you feel the post is off topic report to moderator for deletion.

Allow me to show you an exception to this rule of thumb: Escrow Service of Bl4nkcode. He's from the Philippines and has been running a successful escrow service for years.
But he could just as well have never posted on his local board to hide that if he wanted.
That's the beauty of being anonymous

Their is discrimination here but in logical ways..

For example, I have seen instances of not allowing users from poorer 3rd world countries to become escrows because the money is so much more of a motive for them because they could basically retire off of a modest scammed amount and never be caught because their governments are not capable of handling anything..

For example the phillipeans or India..
Would you disagree that no matter how much someone portrays to be trustworthy, if they are in such a position that a modest scam could possibly dirastially change their lives, with little risk of repercussion, that they should never be allowed to be trusted with such an opportunity?

It is how it is..



For me it is completely person to person..
If you are incredible intelligent and from Sudan then you are just incredible intelligent to me..

Geniuses happen to come from everywhere, no matter their average..
One would be a fool to assume that the averages from every place and creed on earth are equal though..

You can be PC all you want, but it would more likely lead you to mistakes than using the available information to your advantage..

Look at the post he quoted in the OP, in that same thread, the OP has posted multiple times, including this post.
As Poker Player alluded to above, the CCP does not have to worry about elections or what its people want when making decisions, and planning for the future.

I would not give the CCP credit for turning China into a major economic power. I think we have the Clinton administration and greedy corporate executives focused on short-term profit for that. The average income in China is about $14,550 per year, which is barely over the poverty level in the US for one person and is below the poverty level for two people living in a household.

The Chinese market is very large, and Western companies have invested billions, if not trillions of dollars in China. The CCP has demanded that western companies operate a joint venture in China that is majority-owned by a Chinese company. This has resulted in short-term profits for companies that have entered the Chinese marketplace, but at the expense of having their IP and other trade secrets stolen, that over the long term will result in greater losses for Western companies than what they made in the short run.

I would compare the CCP, and president Xi, to the Nazis and Hitler. Both have a goal of world domination, and both systematically killed and imprisoned a minority religious group, the Jews in the case of the Nazis, and the Uighurs in the case of the CCP. The key difference is that the CCP is much more patient than the Nazis were. The Nazis started a world war to attempt to achieve world domination, while the CCP has instead infiltrated institutions to make the world more friendly to the CCP. 

I disagree I think just because there are people here with different backgrounds does not give them the right to be racist. If someone is being racist we should hold them responsible for their words and actions and punish them. I do not mean banning them but as a community we can hold them responsible. Racists do not have the right to express their views unless they do it in a appropriate manner but I have never met a racist that does that.

The problem lately seems to be that the party decided that they're too open and they need to enforce control in more places / companies.
And yeah, I am not convinced on how opened they were for real either, since the news that reach us are "filtered" so we are told almost only what makes them look good.

I've seen so many discriminations here .. I give you an example topic https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/who-is-policing-this-guy-please-the-pharmacist-default-trustjoke-2806313
But you must deal with it, this is the internet you can do what ever you want, you can mock anyone as long as you're anonymous.You can be feel safe  

That's what real democracies have. Since they are held every 4 years and there is rivalry between parties, few politicians make plans that go much further. In contrast, in a totalitarian system you can plan for many years ahead. That happened in dictatorships and in the old communist regimes. How well or poorly they worked was another matter. Hitler's plans worked out very well for him for years. Stalin, Mao and others also had a lot of planning power but they did not understand how the economy works, and the results were a disaster.

The best thing China did was to open up to capitalism, which is why it has lifted so many people out of poverty and is able to buy up half the world. Opening up the economy to create wealth and using the wealth created strategically to acquire more power in the world is what has made them so strong.
