That makes no sense as an answer to my question. Maybe it's my not understanding what you were trying to say.
Can you express what you meant using different words to express the same idea?
Thanks


You asked for examples of equal intensity or "true believer" conviction, I provided. Not confusing.

Stay in your bubble



You think racism and Russians are how Trump won the election. If there's a bubble here, it contains posters who actually think nonsense like this:

quote:

Thats almost funny except you voted for an arse-clown bc you were afraid of Hillary and Mexicans.


quote:

Oh you mean the riots and property damage from anarchists, right? Bc it wasnt dems

quote:

Dementia is the mascot of the Trump supporters

quote:


now diets are racists, homophobic, sexist, etc....got it CNN.

I think you're confusing diets with a large number of Trump supporters


And judging from your own text, I'd say your bubble is small, angry, and irrational.

You seem to be trying to dodge because you know you have nothing to support your claim. You provided nothing beyond a non sequitur.

The hell it is

Only one side of the aisle has the recent track record of forcibly silencing people they don't agree with, and it aint the side on the right.


eta: I used to believe the way you do btw. The actions of the left the past few years have changed my mind.

The best way to troll for lulz on DU is to post the most batshit insane leftist ideas and watch how many people agree.

They should change their name from "Democratic Underground" to "Establishment DNC Circle Jerk".

Not even Bernie supporters get a fair shake there.

Also not requesting ADMIN ban people who disagree with MAGA.

I'm suprised some of you lasted 6 weeks. I lasted a full day.

It does happen here occasionally. Sometimes they get called out or ignored, but they do get bites. The most common type is "concern trolling", but that's more obvious. A lot of anti-Trump republicans did that.

Call me old fashioned but when it says "The right to bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED" I think it probably shouldn't be infringed. When Gandalf said "YOU SHALL NOT PASS", that fricking monster didn't pass.


So you think anyone and everyone should be allowed to carry any type of firearm wherever they want?

It's possible that it only seems that way to you because of your narrow world view and possible affliction with Attribution Bias.
But maybe I'm not understanding your metric? How do you define and identify an "intellectual"? Is it a default expression you use that synonymous with a negative quality?

That being said..my original question asking for like examples of biased excluding of opposing views leading to immediate banning, led you to equate this board with the likes of DU, etc.
Do you stand by that claim?
