My opinion is that is completely unacceptable in any network that values

If you want FSXNet free from Covid-19 drama then ban all Covid-19 talk, not specific
opinions.
LOL! Actually, the Vax played a major role in the tcp/ip stack for
the PC. If you don't know the story or anyone wishes to hear it let
me know and I'll post it.
You, nor anyone else here are experts on covid-19.

People active in fsxNet would far rather have a place devoid of such divisive discord. I certainly do.
Let's keep in fun please folks and save the ideology lessons for othernets.
For the purpose of clarity.
I don't object to having Covid-19 being discussed in a factual manner as
a subject in fsxNet.
The world is united in having to deal with a pandemic taking many lives and causing a lot of disruption to peoples way of living.
That said, pro anti-vax / vax conspiracy / anti govt vax sentiments / discussions are unwelcome here. By all means if you feel strongly about such things discuss them, just don't do here it in fsxNet.

The original post that started the latest thread in this echo pointed to a Canadian
anti-vax / anti Canadian govt website. Such posts immediately fall into the politic
pot and as such are not welcome in fsxNet.
There's a reason why we opted to keep political discussions out of fsxNet and that'
because in the past it's been patiently clear that some past authors have been unab
to discuss differing points of view civilly and
respectfully, instead descending into political ideologies / conspiracies.

What about vax systems that run unix? <G>
Thats it. beeing neutral is not allowing one side and banning the other. no politics and no covid talk at all makes more sense to me.

Healthy flow of misinformation more like it.

Im actually going to make a new othernet where all the stuff that cant be discussed here will be discussed. :)

Some things are not for opinions, and to value things as opinions that
are simply untrue is not healthy.

I am trying to come up with neutral positive ideas that can make a small change in the situation. I want my liberties, but I also want people healthy in other good ways.Such as people with severe diabetes getting screwed real bad, the guy who made my signs for my state legislature race has to go thru kidney dialaysis because he got the rona real bad. Less people getting sever diabetes is a win for all of us. Latinos sadly are a group that gets it big time. Maybe we like sweet bread.

No that's not necessary. I've made my point of view clear. If folks want to have a ding dong session about pro vs anti vax stuff and how [insert countr name] government/political party is not doing things right etc. etc. they ca take it to an othernet.

I read some folks want to have that discussion and they are more than welcome to somewhere other than fsxNet.

As this stuff runs on Fidonet technology it is possible that nodes distribute echos that are not in the official echo list. Just create an echo (let's call it FREE_SPEECH_XTENSION) and setup links between the people/nodes that have a need to talk about "all the stuff that cant be discussed here".

A few weeks back one of my fiendbook friends posted something that was pro-vax and got flagged. I think their algorhythms must not be quite right.

In Spanish, HP is often used as an abreviation for "Hijo de Puta," which could be translated as "Son of a Bitch." The message that got flagged
was something like "Estoy buscando cartuchos HP Negro 350XL." (I am looking for Black HP 350 XL cartridges). I think the algorithm read "HP Negro" and interpretated it as "Hijo de Puta Negro", or "Black Son of a Bitch."
And this is yet another reason why nobody should touch Facebook with a
10 feet long pole.

That applies to their printer and PC divisions aptly.
