If they don't overturn the jury, then perhaps you have to ponder whether you're just too sensitive to having your world view disrupted.

(Note: The latter comment about sensitivity is NOT applicable to trash talk about minorities. On that, as far as I'm concerned, appeals ought to go to a jury of the targeted group - because, especially without being able to explain what it is I'm seeing it is pretty clear that the trasn-talk in coded words just isn't apparent to many good-hearted progressives who aren't part of the targeted group - AND the trash-talk is directed at people (many of whom are members here).) I give a lot more leeway to ideas than I do to attacks on identified groups.)

If you think a particular video is being posted as a right wing talking point Ms. Toad Feb 2017 #19

Good point but you have to leave it up to a jury yuiyoshida Feb 2017 #23

Then appeal it to the admins. Ms. Toad Feb 2017 #48
