Well, that's partly by design. Politics alpha was designed for serious discussion. You should post there if you don't like this forum.

Lol, that forum is a cesspool too! So you freely admit you actually do your best to mmake this forum unenjoyable? Sounds like an admission to me.

Unchained is designed to be a place where terrible posters, particularly those banned from alpha, can express their terrible views while getting pointed and laughed at for their idiocy. That's going to look like a cesspool by designed.
Wow what a coincidence! Its almost like you dont like places where your views that Baltimore is now more dangerous than Syria because we didn't let the cops beat Freddie Gray without consequence or that the icky gays are going to try to blow you get challenged!

The thing is Kerowo that that's just the words of a very partisan poster. In fact I supported you as mod despite disagreeing with you as you would remember if you weren't so hopelessly partisan. I make actual points aplenty - you just don't like them. Again you're just being very partisan.

Everyone has biases - you would be a much better poster if you tried to recognise yours. Then your views would be much more interesting as well.

and I don't mindlessly support posters you deem awful. I believe everyone should be treated equally by the mod. Same rules for everyone applied as fairly as possible. You disagree - that's fair enough but it's a genuine disagreement.

Ok so you freely admit it. Got it.

Lol @ keerolol's views. Like anyone gives a flying **** what he thinks about anything.

I am very partisan against the terrible causes you stand up for chez. Why do you keep thinking that's an insult?

You mean people, rather than causes. Have you ever disagreed about anything of substance?

Who said it was an insult? If you're happy with your obsessively wierd style then be proud of it. I'm very happy to be seen as someone who opposes it.

It's the natural thing to do. It's satisfying to point out the racism, hypocrisy, dishonesty, antisocial behaviour ect. of other posters.

For years on end? Really?

That's just naive. Strangers on the internetz go for the throat.

If someone posts ignorant stuff for a long enough time they're supposed to get a pass?

Constantly bringing up stuff from the past accompanied by a jaundiced spin doesn't become good.

Some partisans may appreciate it because they hate the targets but lets not pretend it's anything reasonable.

For years? Lol. He's not a "nutter" he's a dude with a mental condition. No one keeps up am act that long. Nerd or not gambool has some serious issues to deal with. I like making fun of people too but there only goes so long before I get bored of it. Usually a few weeks or something. Years is just downright therapy-worthy.

Constantly tone policing the forum while saying next to nothing of substance doesn't become good.

Some partisans don't appreciate it because they hate when their terrible views are challenged, but lets not pretend tone policing is anything reasonable.

Gambool have you ever tried seeking psychiatric help? Like, you at least have OCD, right?

Nah, Im gonna be just fine. Happy healthy family, great job, wonderful friends. Not sure what Id seek help for exactly?

Tone policing is a very bad thing but that's about ignoring the arguments and/or shutting down oppressed groups struggling for a voice. Hiding behind that important idea to defend what you do is pathetic.

There's plenty of substance if you ever want to address it.

Oh that's rich.

.

I lol'd

Lol yeah, you got friends homie. I'm sure. Lol you're about as fun as a cancer Ward.

So name a handful of the main political topics that you think I haven't addressed the substance of.

There are some of course, see if you can find many.

Unless you count questions either humoring DS in his Willie Mays on the Mets stage of his career , striking up half rhetorical banter with whatever poster has shared their terrible views of the day, or whatever happens in the UK thread Im never going to read as substance I cant think of anything you really address ever.

I don't know man, Ive gone to a lot of BBQs. AFAIK that's the preferred metric for friendship on here.

Yeah nice evade LG. It really should be easy to come up with so many the topics I haven't addressed the substance of.

So have your laugh, that's all good, but try not to kid yourself.

Well, there's some nuance involved. If someone posted something blatantly misogynistic a few years ago, and when informed of their ignorant post they owned it, admitted they were wrong and made good posts from that point on, I'd say they've earned the right to be treated decently. It was a one off and Lord knows we've all made stupid posts from time to time, there but for the grace of God and all that jazz. If the same guy continued to make misogynistic posts on an ongoing basis, then yes, he deserves to be ripped apart on an ongoing basis.

Now, if a few years ago he posted something egregious, and when pointed out he refused to admit wrong doing and instead doubled down, at the very least he's lost the high ground in perpetuity, and he shouldn't be surprised that if years later when he suddenly wants to be taken seriously that people have longer memories than are convenient for how he now wants to be received.
