Application of warnings or bans will be subject to moderator discretion. Feel free to appeal. If changes to the guidelines are necessary, they will be adjusted.


If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a group that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of any other group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you you will be banned on sight.

Provable means able to provide proof to the moderation, and, if necessary, to the community.

Missing panel: being thrown off a bridge

Hahaha

Had the same thought, “I can prove this dude can’t fly pretty easy, see that cliff?”

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Battlefield earth had a scene like that. "Man animals can't fly" and throws a person over ravine.

How can anyone remember dialogue from that forgettable Scientologist propaganda?

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Was it? I thought that one was after earth with will smith.

Or were there 2 propaganda ones that happen to have earth in the name?

Cause if that is true that's lazy on them.

Travolta, a Scientologist, began attempting to adapt Battlefield Earth in the mid-1990s. He was unable to obtain major studio funding because of concerns regarding the script and its connections to Scientology

Also Battlefield Earth is the name of one of the inventor of Scientology’s books.

That is crazy. Thank for the info. I saw it in theaters as a kid so it was quite memorable for me.
