Internet bullies don't have the guts to do that. They sit behind their keyboards, use various names to hide who they are, making up a new life...new job, etc. and stalk, abuse, beat down...whatever they want to call it all from the safety of their keyboard. I can see why these same people love Trump. He does the same thing.
"They".... LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

That's exceptionally insightful of you.
However, I've been bullied online -- including here -- and direct name-calling and personal insults were sometimes part of it. Trump-haters and Trump-lovers both do it.

That's an interesting point. "NAZI" was originally intended as an insult toward members of the German NSDAP and it's used as an all-purpose insult now. It's thrown about often as an insult here but as far as I know no one's been penalized for it. (I don't think anyone is penalized unless a post is reported.)
Though no one is technically a "NAZI" per the original meaning of the term, I am indeed "a supporter of that political and social philosophy" and, in fact, a supporter of the American NAZI Party. Though it was always intended as an insult, it doesn't bother me at all when someone calls me a "NAZI" simply because it's true and no reason for ignominy.
It bothers me some when other people here are called that because, to my knowledge, it's not close to true of anyone else here, is intended to hurt, and cheapens something very dear to me.
The no name-calling rule is meant to keep the conversation somewhat civil. "Racist" is just always meant as an insult and can never be a statement of pure, objective fact. I prefer as few limits on speech as possible, but they really do let us speak pretty freely here (and I say that shortly after being temp-banned over a private message not meant to insult anyone). You can still call a post "racist" just not a person.
You can call me a "NAZI" any ol' time you like.
I wasn't intended as an insult. I am pretty much ambivalent about the subject as far as you are concerned. No more or less so than if you were a Communist or Baathist. It just a term that to me describes your political position and beliefs. As far as you are concerned and you have the right to hold them. I may disagree with it in regards to the issues surrounding it. But as long as the beliefs aren't aimed at harming others it's just a term.
I mean you don't want to see people thrown in ovens or concentration camps, right ? And if not then it just something to be debated on its merits like everything else here. My problem with racist isn't their racism per say, it their bad intentions for others that set it apart from just being some other belief.

The ban is on direct name-calling.
How does a ban change what the person is?

Thank you. It's too bad not everyone shares that attitude.

So how are you defining "racism?" To my knowledge, no one here has ever seriously advocated doing physical or material harm to anyone based solely on race.
It doesn't. It's just about keeping the tone of the conversation civil. "What you posted is racist" doesn't violate the rule. "You're a racist" does. Like if I said to my husband "I hate that you did that" is different than if I said "I hate you." That would make for two very different conversations.

Look left and right before you look ahead:
Clinton's polling numbers went up in the wake of the deplorables comment. It pissed off the halfwits and the sub-human scum who were embarrassed to realize that people recognized how deplorable they were, but they already supported Trump, so it made no difference what they thought.
Question: What's the square root of negative one?
Answer: A Trump voter who isn't sub-human scum.

Yes this is indeed a racist article.
By the way, your tag line calls liberals here racist. Why do you get a pass on the ban on calling other posters that word ?
Talk about retarded.....................................................................
Some people can't be expected to figure that out. Thanks for making it simple, @Emily, though I doubt you came down as far as you needed to go with the simplicity.
When will the US stop ruining Mexico?
When the revolution comes and they join together in a Soviet Union of North America ...

No reason for ignominy other than being the most harmful government in history, you mean.
This is what the Left wants. I hope it never happens.
48 Things Mexicans Need To Stop Ruining in 2018:
Most of all, they've wrecked Mexico. Like arsonists after setting a fire, they have to run away from it. The Spanish word for "fire" (fuego) and the Latin word for "I make run away" (fugo) are ironically similar.
