Head mod Ham Sandwich is banning anyone who criticizes how he applies the "no racism" rule.
About a week ago, Ham stickied a thread reminding users about the no racism rule. Everyone was like yeah no shit just do your job and remove any racist comments and leave the rest of us alone. The thread was a shit show as you'd expect and Hammy got his feelings hurt.
I received a permanent ban yesterday without any explanation. I called him a shit head (not directly, just in response to someone else saying he doesn't think Ham has bad intentions) because he took a few random racist comments and posted a screen shot of them next to a PPC logo on Twitter. He added the PPC logo himself to smear the growing political party. The racist comments were all one liners and half of them were probably posted by Ham on alt accounts. None of them had anything to do with the PPC or PPC supporters.
Purposefully smearing millions of people like that makes you a shit head and I said as much.
But since this is tangibly related to the "no racism" rule discussion, he went straight to a perma-ban.
I'm not even Canadian, but I migrated to Omega after the meta Canada subreddit closed by the same head mod who started OmegaCanada.
Here's a newly stickied thread, which he locked immediately after posting so nobody could respond, where he announces that he will ban you permanently if you criticize how he's going about all of this.

Anyone else receive a perma-ban over this issue?
Ham has been extra butthurt lately because he sees that his beloved CPC party is no different from PM Blackface's Liberal party, but he can't admit it out loud. He's mad that PPC support is growing and he's lashing out on various ways.
I like the rule here. I can say the nigger word I just can't use it on anyone.
That's how I do it irl anyway. I've never unironically called a black person nigger before. Earnest insults based on race are pretty weak anyway.
Same. I've literally only called a black person a nigger once, when he/she (it was impossible to tell, it was a fucking freak) was extremely racist towards everyone else. And it got me banned off of Twitter. And this is how you create racists.
Unless they are acting extremely nigga like. That's the problem, most "slurs" aren't based on pure identity, but a specific type of that identity. Chris Rock said it perfect 20 years ago, and he can't unsay it no matter how much he wants to.
But people want to pretend its raw identity for victimization.
What'd he say? I'm gonna guess something like "there are black people, and then there's niggers."
Which is actually my boomer dad's way of putting it as well. I guess I can't say it's a bad way to put it.
Just adding to the conversation, me and my friend actually use nigger as a kind of verb and will say it about whoever. Usually for exceptionally petty theft. Like we had some faggot take our stuff out and steal our cart at the store one time, described it as "niggered our cart".
I'm fairly certain he is the origination of that phrase. At least in that format.
I'm from the Dirty Louisiana South and its basically how everyone thinks of it. Very few white people hate all black people. But they have extreme words to say about niggas. Heck most black people have extreme words to say about niggas because nobody actually likes them.
And yeah, me and my best boy call each other every slur in the book out of affection, and will describe actions in the most offensive ways possible.
Not paying for something = Going Dutch.
Finding a way to get something free = Going Scotch.
Getting drunk before noon = Irish Coffee.
The entire human race has been doing this for thousands of years.
