I didn't mean libertarians, in general, are whackadoodle. Just that there can be extremes in any political leaning.

Like I said. Your inability to take responsibility for your own behavior renders you incapable of sound judgment.

A common problem on the left.

I've never counted.

It's a conservative leaning board. In my experience, that's how the internet works.

I think.

Correct.

The only issue I really have is when, in the past, a lot of Trump critical threads were getting anchored. It hasn't been an issue recently, but for awhile, it was bad. And when it got called out, a lot of the sentiment was that it was a good thing.

How many "LOL @ liberals" threads are started per day here?

You don't know what trolling means. Laughing at liberals should be done every hour on the hour.

you can troll liberals all day long here, but when someone trolls repubs/conservatives, its now considered an offense


If the libs on this board acted like bamarep or gthog, they would be banned with a quickness. We all know how it is here, so I don't see why some people are trying to beat around it

When people are spamming the board with links and no comment AND disappearing from the threads, they SHOULD be anchored.

If you're only in here to see if you can generate 15 threads on the 1st page, you should be anchored AND banned.

So yes, it was a good thing.

Oh please.

A Want is the absolute undisputed KING right now in this arena. Whoever is second is so far behind, they're getting lapped.

But, to your point. I fricking hate logging in to see 15 JJDoc threads too.

But AT LEAST that mother fricker PARTICIPATES in his own threads.

Toddy Does this all the time. He posts from some far left website, obvious troll gets destroyed and he never stays around to defend.

ETA: How did I forget a want. He's the worst at this and you never call them out. Credit ShortyRob.

You've made no point.

Is lack of self-awareness like
Dunning–Kruger? There's nothing you can do about it?

I don't think a want spams the board though.

I don't consider posting an article for discussion to be an awful offense. I just assume when someone posts the article with no commentary that they agree with it.

It is annoying when an OP doesn't defend his stance though. I agree with you there.

I agree. It was frustrating to me, too, and I generally disagree with them.

Stand up and defend your arguments.

Oh Come on. I'm trying here but you have to be intellectually honest or it's hopeless.

That is NOT what A Want is doing.

Not quite sure there is a right-wing equivalent to DU, at least not something mainstream. You'd have to find some KKK or Neo-Nazi message board hidden on the dark web to come up with the amount of vitriol and delusion expressed by DU.

Like others have posted, stormfront is probably the only one that comes to mind. But they're pretty focused on the whole white purity/power thing. DU is all over the place.

Of course some of our resident posters, including ones in this thread, probably equate the poliboard with stormfront anyway.

Just to revisit.

THIS is a huge issue with folks like A Want(who didn't have this problem at one time)

But, it isn't just him. What happens LIKE CLOCKWORK on this board is if something goes poorly, suddenly, we see BOAT LOADS of these fricking threads which amount to a prolonged temper tantrum.

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

The bottom line is, it's a fricking DISCUSSION board.

If you have no ideas of your own, I can find your links anytime. I don't need them provided to me.

If you have an idea of your own that you feel the link supports, THEN, have at it.

I LOVE having discussion on here with people who disagree with me.
