Nonsense, Publisher and co were not banned for saying "fucking jews", no one would and no one would complain about it. They were banned for posting dozens of antisemitic conspiracy threads every single day turning this site into a de-facto mirror site of kkk.com. Very few websites or political blogs would tolerate this kind of hijacking, they would be banned equally fast on dailykos/mydd and freerepublic/redstate and there is no reason why they should be tolerated in the political section of ET either. If anything Baron was too patient for too long.Quote from ZZZzzzzzzz:
If we see similar type of hated speech directed at their opponents (say Muslims), they don't complain.

I suspect this is the fact, because I was once warned about the use of the term "fucking" Christians, and apparently many complained. I seriously doubt those same would have complained if I had said "fucking" Muslims, or "fucking" Hindus, etc. People around here generally don't complain on real logical principals, but on the basis of what bothers them personally.
PS I don't see dozens of new threads every day bashing and demonizing muslims, chrisitans or hindus, until Publisher was banned I saw dozens of new threads every day demonizing jews though. Your comparison is therefore invalid and absurd.
