Amazing how you have such a strong opinion about something you know absolutely nothing about.

Well, I guess it shouldn't come as much of a surprise actually

I have ZERO issue with bouncing your arse if you do that.


this is fine

but at times, it seems like the "bouncing" is very one sided, which is very DUish

which was my original point that got downvoted into oblivion, yet I'm accused of lacking self awareness

REX got banned by DU for being too conservative.

More than once!

I mean, let's not lose our minds with false equivalence here.

I could get banned inside of a day on DU by simply reposting my last 10 posts from TD. On ANY day.........at ANY time of your choosing.

I didn't say it was exactly like DU, just that one sided admining is "DUish"

This board is decent at self policing itself. If it ever went full on DU, I wouldn't post here anymore.

TD is not as bad as DU, nobody is saying that it is (or at least I'm not)

But to pretend liberal voices aren't disfavored here at times with regards to threads being anchored/deleted, or even bannings on occasion is myopic

Example A of shitposting a troll thread and running without defending is the Toddy thread on the first page, yet you haven't called him out yet. Just calling out anything conservative slanted. Odd.

It isn't odd.

I find being just another voice in the echo to be pointless.

There are plenty of shitposts from both sides that I ignore.

I wouldn't either.

I already know my own opinions.

I would be bored out of my mind on the conservative version of DU

Trolls should stay away from threads critical of Trump so we can discuss it.

No one wants to have a discussion with trolls.

According to some, its TD poli board. We're all a nunch of hateful racist white cis males. Big mean doodie heads who hate the poors and the chirren.


HAHAHA nice.

What's funny, is that liberals themselves have cried wolf so many times with racist/racism, that people don't even react to it anymore.

Again... no one has been banned for simply being a liberal. They did something idiotic or pushed something too far or whatever and happened to be a liberal. But there have been no bannings for no other reason than they were liberal.

What is Toddy supposed to defend? He posted an article and the thread is immediately overrun with shitposts about his orientation and the GA election
