I guess your deletion of my thread answered my question, but I was wondering if that was a real guy or not.

Why must you leap to the conclusion that it is offensive?

Wild guess: You're not a registered user?

Oh, I am multi-registered, actually. It's quite necessary when there are overzealous moderators deleting and banning everything in sight they don't agree with or understand.

But, what does that have to do with the initial question? My guess is that guy Freedman was totally made up by right wing rednecks.

You know it helps if you point the mods tward the thread in question.

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 4 June 2006 03:57 (nineteen years ago)

No, no; let's guess.
Is this from the 'So Not Gonna Happen' thread?

― Forksclovetofu (Forksclovetofu), Sunday, 4 June 2006 14:22 (nineteen years ago)

Ask the mod who deleted the thread, then. I'm not going to repost something that was deleted.

― Randy Dumbguy (Uri Frendimein), Sunday, 4 June 2006 21:36 (nineteen years ago)

which mod deleted it?

I'm guessing nude spock's referring thos this (from this board's mod log)

1:50 AM, 3 Jun 06 Is "Benjamin Freedman" just Antisemitic lies? Can I post this on ILX or is it going to get me condemned? deleted by Rufus 3000 (where to start?)

I have no idea why Zack deleted it, I didn't even see it myself. I'd guess because it's not a mod request?

If you're multi-registered, spock, why didn't/don't you post it on ILE?

The only deleting and banning I've done recently has been of spam. I'll admit that I don't agree with spam, nor do I understand it.

"to this", not "thos this" (?wtf)

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Monday, 5 June 2006 10:54 (nineteen years ago)

Sorry Norman, but I'm not going to guess what this 'Randy Dumbguy' is referring to unless [s]he spells it out. Last week hstencil and chaki were accusing me of god knows what for something they still haven't been able to explain and this week's thread is even more obtuse.

― Rufus 3000 (Mr Noodles), Monday, 5 June 2006 15:30 (nineteen years ago)

"obtuse" is nude spock's ("randy dumbguy" = "nude spock") MO for the most part, innit. That just seemed like the most likely candidate for what he was on about to me?

I'd have probably deleted it or moved it to the ITR if I'd seen it myself before you did.

It's simple, Pash (may I call you "Pash?"): I was looking for either the go-ahead to post it on ILX (if it is deemed an innocent question [which it was]) or, perhaps even better, a simple response from any judgey judgerator who happens to know something about this Mr. Freedman.

In other words, I was trying to be tactful and respectful!

Oh, that one rules

― Courtney Gidts (ex machina), Monday, 5 June 2006 19:50 (nineteen years ago)

You should have just posted it! There isn't some kind of delete-on-sight rule for your posts (or anyone else's AFAIK, unless yer name is "buy ambien now" or suchlike)

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Tuesday, 6 June 2006 07:33 (nineteen years ago)

I sort of wanted to share it with as few people as possible due to the content of Freedman's speech, too. I guess none of the moderators ever heard of the guy, either.

― Randy Dumbguy (Uri Frendimein), Tuesday, 6 June 2006 12:01 (nineteen years ago)

Oh yeah, since the original post was deleted, my intentions at the time are totally lost now.... So, I'll just repost exactly what I had posted back then:

I came across this somehow whilest looking for debt consolidation
services, not by frantically Googling "Zion" or something.

Apparently/supposedly, Benjamin Freedman was actually a Jew who said
some stuff that would definitely provoke a reaction-- very antisemitic
stuff to say the least about a Zionist conspiracy that really paints a
very, very bad picture if indeed he was telling the truth.

I have never heard of this man before.

If this guy really existed and isn't just some character made up by
white supremecists, then this would be the first time I ever heard
anyone condemn their own people to such an extreme.

Further Googling turned up the exact same speech and introductory
remarks, word for word, which seemed even more suspicious. If this guy
really existed, I think there would be more information about him in
the public archives.

But, I figured, if anyone knows it would be you guys!

― Randy Dumbguy (Uri Frendimein), Tuesday, 6 June 2006 12:06 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah that's all very well, but this is the moderator request forum, I mean obviously there's a small amount of leeway and all, but the only real purpose of this part of ilx is for people to make requests for moderator action - spam, NSFW imagery and so on. The post you made isn't that by any stretch of the imagination. Post it on ILE if you want people to answer it.

FWIW, I've never heard of the guy, and going on yer description, it sounds like, as you say, some character made up by white supremacists with the intentio of slandering Jewish people.
