It's not very different than fascism, in particular the Gestapo, who would use 
those in the community to censor people through fear of being marginalized.

I'll stop discussing this if you will.

Please don't write such quotes in a public forum, as someone who might
argue that he wants to silence the discussion (which don't have to be ok)
is something completely different from someone who was involved in
something like the holocaust.
Making such a comparison is totally unacceptable.

"As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison
involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1"
(...) that is, if an online discussion (regardless of topic or scope) goes
on long enough, sooner or later someone will compare someone or something
to Adolf Hitler or his deeds, the point at which effectively the discussion
or thread often ends.

And no, I will not refresh the discussion at this point as it is not Qubes
related (anymore).

Stop being a nazi.

I already gave you the link for qubes-devel.

That's why I like mailing lists which require a sponsor to add you and 
which will hold said sponsor responsible for the behaviour of his 
invitees. If you bring in too many duds. you're getting thrown out, too.



If you don't like a user, just add them to your kill file.


As long as there are no really useful tools that eliminate everything 
that contains quotes of the user you don't really need in your life this 
is not as helpful as eliminating that user completely. Unless said kill 
file is the input queue of a skilled assassin...




Build the community that *you* want, by promoting the issues/discussions
that are of value. Let the others wither away.


Some trolls don't wither on their own. Those have to be cut back.

Or is this a slick way to try and get me to use tor.  Because we know evading 
bans is one of the things its most known for lol...  Oh wait.  Google probably 
already bans tor,  which is why this place has been so troll free for the years 
I've been posting here.

Maybe you should start a German forum on some other platform and then you can 
all go there.  Rather then make even more people complicit in patricks drama.

2019-03-01 Thread cooloutac
I saw another user complain about patricks behavior.  I commented to say I've 
experience the same thing so that user did not feel alone.

Then I responded to the notice in my email that Patrick posted on whonix 
forums.  Then he hurls a profanity at me.  Which has now been deleted and he 
denies.  And now I'm banned so I can't respond.   

I was the one first called a troll.  I was the one being badmouthed. I'm not 
gonna let him ban me and hide like a coward. 

His character is definitely related to the integrity of Qubes.  If he has none, 
 how can we expect his project to have some?

I've stated my opinions and experiences with the whonix qube and tor.  And If 
you don't like them state your case.  Rather then try to censor me like a 
nazi...

 Do us all a favour and go troll somewhere else

I don't think this is helpful


I guess I'm of a different opinion in that case. Sometimes someone has 
to speak up and draw a line in the sand.



Please consider the guidelines and be respectful and polite to others.


Unlike others I strongly believe that respect has to be earned and it 
can be retracted. The user in question spent nearly all his time on this 
mailing list. And _none_ of his postings ever enriched any discussion.


Keep in mind that "a wise man changes his mind, a fool never will" just 
means the fools will win in the end.



None of these accusations of trolling help build the community, or
advance Qubes.


In that case I would like to demand a vote (of exclusion of certain 
users) as this is building a community I wouldn't want to be a part of. 
I can understand why he is not welcome on the whonix lists anymore. And 
I strongly believe it should be the same here. I guess we will need a 
management decision on that point.
