The problem here is that in almost every case we've satisfied a substantially greater burden of proof than anything you have brought forward, and in point of fact you've functionally admitted that you will absolutely disregard any onus of evidence from your Cheeto-headed idol. Whether you agree or not is therefore of markedly tiny consequence, as are your claims that millions-of-people-agree-with-you.

Such claims are worth their weight in the hot air used to speak them which--in the case of this, a printed medium--is functionally zero.

Ah yeah, I remember the joke now.

Thank You Forsher.

To the Moderator, I'm back on the Mod Supreme Court but not as the accused. I Am Sick of This. The evidence is very clear, Proving My Point, they have a Problem with my Pro Trump Posts and views, Pro Republicans Posts and views, while I don't have a problem with their anti Trump Posts and views, anti Republicans Posts and views, while I don't have a problem with their Pro Biden, Pro Democrats Posts and views. They only have a problem with me on Trump related Posts and threads, not even on my native Cuba, Castro's and their successors, ok on Cuba a few have a little problem with me, :) lol. I will not place any persons on ignore for any reasons, I am very proud of it, but I am not the only one on NS.

Part of the Problem is I am outnumbered at least 95 % of the time, so it seems and feels like I am the only one who agrees with me, Fact there are millions of American Citizens who strongly agree with me on all issues, based on my conversations with many fellow Proud Republicans.

They never Post any Pro Trump Posts. It works both ways, in Politics every thing works both ways, biases and corruptions on both political party's sides. I have Posted at least 4 Policy areas where I strongly disagree with President Trump. I strongly agree with President Trump and the Republicans on most issues. There is nothing wrong with it, it is called Freedom of Expression and Democracy which I Respect on both sides and all sides.

Thank You.

GMS.

GMS has previously stated quite proudly that he will accept anything and everything that Trump says as gospel truth, no matter how far his statements might break with the very fabric of reality itself. My use of religious terminology is a simple extension of such statements. He rather literally treats Trump as an idol.

That said, if the use of 'Cheeto-Headed' counts as political nicknaming, I'll accept the mea-culpa.

Oh hey, speaking of political nicknaming, GMS has a tendency to use 'President Trump' when referring to the former president. Given the circumstances behind January 6th and all of the uproar about the 'stolen election' and the violence it led to, would referring to a former president in the manner that one would a current sitting president not itself be inflammatory? People have indicated that such references are problematic before on the politics thread, due to the baggage that came with, and also implies that the current president does not belong.

I'd like a comment on that, if it is not overmuch trouble.

In a word, no. Ex-presidents have used the courtesy title of "President" for as long as I've been alive. I seriously doubt you would be offended by "President Obama". Even President Nixon kept the title after he resigned, and people still talk about the assassination of President Kennedy.

Ehhhh, I’d argue that there’s a lot more subtext around the usage of the title with Trump, but I kinda already did. Thanks for the feedback either way.

Godulan Puppet #2, RPing as technologically advanced tribal society founded by mongols and vikings (and later with multiple other Asian and Native American cultures) motivated by an intrinsic devotion to the spirit of competition. They'll walk softly, talk softly, and make soothing noises as they stab you in the back and take your stuff... unless you're another Caleshan, whereupon they'll only stab you in the back figuratively!

Used NS stats: Population. That’s it. Anything else not stated in the factbooks is not used.

Intro RP: Gravity Ships and Garden Snips (involved tribes: Plainsrider, Hawkeye, Wavecrasher)
Current RP: A Rock Out of Place (involved tribes: Night Wolf, Deep Kraken, Starwalker)

To the Moderator. I have no problems and grudge with Godular and all Persons who have me on ignore and those who don't. But they Keep Proving My Point many have a problem with my Pro Trump Posts and views. I can RP with all of them as NS Friends.

I don't like any Persons getting in trouble with the Mods and banned from NS for good, we all love NS, General and the RPs. All of you are NS Supreme Court Justices. This is the NS Supreme Court. I am not a Bad Guy Dude.

Thank You.

GMS.
