Used to come to the OT board first when checking in. Now it's about my third stop for a quick glance, if at all. Nothing but blowhards, cripples and boomers mucking the place up.

Yeah, the Poliboard sucks now. I voted for Donald Trump and I'd vote for him again but it's basically the Donald Trump board now. It's no place for nuanced and interesting political discussion.

That being said, it's also true that HHTM! is a rino Marxist beta.

Calm down, Francis. It’s a watershed in our country’s history.

It was a pretty important topic so some cross forum action is to be expected. Sorry to push your gay lunch thread so far down the page.


If it was once in a blue moon it would be one thing. Every political topic ends up on the OT.

It really got bad during the Q era and has only gotten worse.

Yes. It's "the left" making every thread about politics.

The REAL problem is the country is ran by two gangs. You join one and you hate the other.

Republicans and Democrats are just Crips and Bloods now.

used to love M/TV board. Met a lot of good folks there. I haven't posted there in ages for example.




There are a few people in there that make me wish this place had an ignore feature.

How old are you?

Even under Bill Clinton, it was not this bad

Something changed w/the election of Obama. Having seized control of Academia, Hollywood, & tMSM, and finally the federal gov't, the left no longer bothered with even the pretense of civility.

And now they control corporate America, or at least their advertising dep'ts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Admins are like cops, don't bother me and I won't bother you.

ETA: just trying to be cool, don't ban me.

You’re so right. There’s totally not any real difference between the two. I mean it’s just dead babies and trannies exposing themselves to children. I understand why you can’t be bothered to take a side.

hang around better people and turn off the talking heads that want nothing more but to keep telling you how horrible the other side is.

False

I've been banned for total BS several times (I presume by a certain admin I won't name) -- another admin actually admitted this, but it's TD policy not to undo another admin's ban

This.

I hear a lot of talking beats in the background throughout my day. Cable news is popular. One day msnbc has some balls guy saying how angry and inherently violent Republicans were. I got in truck turned on radio and was going through stations and stopped on 99.5 what used to be Walton and Johnson and they were saying the same stuff but democrats.

The above poster talking about yrannies exposing themselves and what not. Honestly, yes the progressive wing has the reigns now and I want to see the Democrats taken down a peg. But I also see an obvious issue when we start passing laws based on interpretation of religion.

Oh this is true. You piss of an admin and they just ban you.

I've been good. 5 years since my last ban.

the age of nuanced thinking and discourse has left the building… let’s paint swaths with extreme pigments and call it a day. It will give us something to bitch and moan and complain about to others on our team
