A small group of hateful people banned me for no reason. In response, Fred Bauder made this incoherent personal attack:
But just today on [[Talk:Holocaust denial examined]] you made the following edit: ":::HistoryBuffEr, you are clearly makin anti-Semitic and ad homenim attacks towards Jay, and you are pushing a Nazi agenda. Your edits will be reverted. [[User:RK|RK]] 17:58, Oct 14, 2004 (UTC)"
Now, you may be right. I don't follow the edits in this area, but still a personal attack. I would have banned you long ago, but played no role in the arbitration case. May I suggest you take what happened as a lesson and learn from it and when you come back take a lighter attitude and have some fun instead of the constant uproar.
I am shocked by Fred's lies and condoning of anti-Semitic personal attacks. HistoryBuffEr has repeatedly been filling Wikipedia with multiple ad homenim anti-Semitic attacks, all of which use anti-Semitic terminology straight from Jew-Watch, a Nazi website. In response, MANY Wikipedia users have condemned this person for his outrageous behaviour, and it now looks like he may be banned.
Yet out of all the people who have been condemning his anti-Semitic attacks, Fred Bauder picks on me alone, and dishonestly pretends that I am somehow attacking people? Huh?
As far as I can tell, Fred Bauder thinks that it is Ok to come onto Wikipedia, harasss people, revert pages, create flame wars, and use racist hatespeech. And no ban. But when multiple people object to such behaviour, Fred uses this as a reason to ban me? And then says that I should have "fun" with this kind of Jew-baiting?
This is precisely the kind of anti-Jewish rhetoric that I was complaining about last year. No one on this list ever bans people for racist hatespeech, even when they admit to being a Nazi (like Mr. Natural Health), or even when they use Neo-Nazi JewWatch tactics, like HistoryBuffEr. Yet objecting to this gross abuse someone is grounds for a ban?
Is obecting to wife-beating worse than beating one's wife?
It is no wonder that Wikipedia is getting a bad rep, and this latest incident will only convince the world at large that Wikipedia doesn't work, and is controlled by hateful extremists. Fred's outrageous blame-the-Jew-victim mentality is an example of Wikipedia at its utter worst.
