Rivalry with the Political talk board

It’s not a rivalry, the PT has just become a giant retard circle jerk

Shut up

Agreed. I scroll through there and it’s like a mix of Q conspiracies and complete nut jobs who have now either decided we should invade Russia or defend Putin.

Some of the Teedy bashing is pretty funny but man the idiocy over there is astounding.

frick the political board. We’re all borderline retards here on the OT but they’re full blown tards on the PT.

it’s always been a big circle jerk, it’s just way more fringe/conspiratorial than it used to be

It started with Covid. Covid itself isn't a political issue but it became one so anytime a non-political Covid topic was brought up on the OT, the political baws swarmed like flies.

STFU & go away.

PT board is an echo chamber (right leaning)

When OT has political topics it's very left leaning

Not a rivalry. In a perfect TD world, the PT would go back to what it was a decade or so ago: certainly right leaning, but an overall interesting and reasonable place. But short of that, we should make an effort to limit its insanity from spilling onto other boards. The problem is that the PT has become such a circle jerk that it’s become boring even for those engaged in said jerk, so now they are migrating out to get that sweet, sweet attention induced dopamine rush.
