It's essentially being declared a second-class citizen of the blog, and self-respect would seem to dictate that once one is manually determined by an administrator there to be a 'not-trusted' member of the 'community' (so-called), then that's when it's time to leave. Especially considering all the people who <i>are</i> considered more valuable and 'trusted' than the NR'ed person. I mean, think about it. Someone who calls for Hezbollah to obtain nuclear weapons is considered more valuable to that site's mission than the NR'ed people.<br /><br />I was the very first person declared 'permanent NR,' is my personal claim to <i>Daily Kos</i> fame. ;)<br /><br />Despite never even receiving a hidden comment. I was apparently determined to just be too hard to pin down for any real offense, but I was clearly one of the more annoying (to them) pro-I folks there, so I basically just got a 'fuck you, get out of here anyway' from the same site whose moderator once claimed <a href="http://www.dailykos.com/comments/978950/41721666" rel="nofollow">the Nazis were a blip</a>.JayinPhiladelphiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14556212008313470286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-32634274587851824702013-02-05T13:38:51.089-08:002013-02-05T13:38:51.089-08:00"NR" means "no rate," I take i..."NR" means "no rate," I take it?<br /><br />I'm not the least little surprised.<br /><br />He'll probably get his banning, as well, sooner or later.<br /><br />He stuck with 'em no matter what they said and now he's going to be the last one pushed out the door.Mike L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06450806807610560873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-44768220745032448832013-02-05T13:23:55.653-08:002013-02-05T13:23:55.653-08:00You would think he'd realize there's a pro...You would think he'd realize there's a problem when he has poisonous <a href="http://www.dailykos.com/comment/1184647/49293367#c252" rel="nofollow">neo-Nazis like this</a> regularly riding to his rescue.

Buy his book and follow him on twitter!<br /><br />It's amazing that antisemites like that one not only dare show their face in Israel-related diaries, but that they are also clearly considered credible 'community members,' who can call for the purging of the very few remaining people there who do actually push back against garbage like that diary. One of whom has now been made 'NR,' apparently, which is the first step to banning.<br /><br />Once they kick him out, I don't think that site will have anyone left anymore (well, at least not anyone with any credibility outside of that site) willing to stand up for it against charges of systemic antisemitism.

And that's not why he's being called an antisemite (I didn't call him that, but I don't necessarily think others who now do are wrong either, as he certainly fails Sharansky's 3D test). I call him a leading enabler of antisemites at places like <i>Daily Kos</i>, because he clearly is. If he doesn't like that, he shouldn't be doing it.
