There is so much discrimination towards minorities and general disrespect on this forum and I think I've seen you call out..... none of it. Why is that?

This post is the reason the thread has been closed - it's actually a very good example of what is wrong with much of the world today.
Allowing
moderated free speech is what we are required to do under Australian law and while we don't agree with all the opinions (including the quoted one), we will defend the right of people to hold them as long as they do not breach those laws.
To single out '
the men in this thread' to cast aspersions on is not only a gross generalisation but also discriminatory ipso facto although I suspect that irony is probably lost.
Frankly, if you or anyone else doesn't like the way this forum is run then you know where the exit is and be warned that if you want to continue to take cheap shots at the hard-working volunteers who run this forum then you will be shown the door with no questions asked and no recourse, regardless of how you might feel that infringes your rights.
