I used Noom, got a pretty good trial price and then extended it.

You got it in one. Gravity isn't fast enough.

I've never unblocked because I've never blocked.

(because I don't sub political discussion munis)

Invisible deity? The observers are you and me.

You started this thread with hostility and rudeness, what exactly did you expect?

But they are acting like assholes when they say things like "trans hysteria". Combative and dismissive behavior is jerk behavior, so if you don't want people to call you one, don't act like one.

I did consider it in that light. This analysis is from the perspective of an observer, not the presiding body. Since the presiding body's reasoning cannot be known, we observers just look for patterns of removal to determine whether censorship is occurring. These are the pattern-markers I look for.

"Dead" is an adjective, modifying the antecedent of "he", not an adverb modifying "is".

Contrast "he is well", where "well" modifies "is" as an adverb vs. "he is good" where "good" is an adjective modifying "he". There's no grammatic signifier which is which beyond the modifying word itself, so you need to see whether it's in adverb form or adjective form.

"he died" describes an action

"he was dead" describes a condition / state / quality
