If it doesn’t matter, why have two colors at all?

that's why there are 3

Just think of it like yin and yang and yong. Hopefully that clears things up.

How do you keep a wanker guessing?

I think we need some gradation in the color scheme. Gotta know how close I’m getting to enlightenment.

if someone is being dualistic, they are of the red/blue kind of persons.

If you are balanced, if you think from a purple mind, red/blue people aren't two different types, they are 'red/blue' not some are red and some are blue.

Seems like the addition of these carnival-type shenanigans will spoil the purity of the whole endeavour, but in that spirit, perhaps we could introduce bluffing as a strategy, e.g.:

this comment is red
this comment is blue
this comment is not purple

its just yinyang. its just one. the westerner red/blue'd it.

Then why not reduce it to just one color.

That would be cultural appropriation, which is not a very purple thing to do.

It represents flux.

"like, objectively natediggity knows that bombing babies is bad":
Yeah, no ****

"he is really mad about the negligible amount of babies that died during the Hamas attack":
adding the word "negligible" is something else

"but goddamnit if objectivity doesnt just go out the window when he hears that Gazan babies are dead":
I haven't posted a god damn thing that could possibly lead you to this conclusion. In fact, my actual stance is that Israel's response was justified but at this point they have exceeded the limit of palatable violence. Go read my posts in the Israel thread (of which I may have made a grand total of 5) and tell me which ones you disagree with. The answer is probably none.

Every single one of your posts is confrontational, and I don't know the percentage that are disgusting, but it's the highest % here by a country mile. So, I guess I should say congrats because that is what you're going for.

Anyway, I will never reply to you again so go ahead and you do you.

So when a post strikes you as biased, you label it arbitrarily as red or blue, with no regard for the direction in which the post is biased?

Is this an intentionally confusing system?

Yes because whats important is that its not balanced, rather than the content, or the direction to which its biased. Thats why making a post in purple, hiding an OBVIOUS or ie sarcastic red/blue type post, is a valid bluff.

Much of victors posts that nature, perhaps.

Well it's not like his posts are confusing after all...

In your view, Victor's posting is balanced (at least superficially)?

Is it even in any doubt??

He takes peoples ridiculous pro west posts and balances them with ridiculous counter color posts.

red + blue = purple

I have to say, at the great personal risk of being labelled a naysayer by the rest of the forum, that I am beginning to see a crack or two developing in your otherwise brilliant system.

Of course. He could just ask for a thread where there are strict rules against/policing of biased posts or requiring some kind of balance in bias or whatever it is he wants, but instead feels the need to dress it up in some kind of colour scheme first. Not that such an idea is any more tenable for moderators, but it's much simpler.

This is reminiscent of times when there is disagreement over the meaning of a word/term which could be resolved by agreeing to disagree on the term and simply discussing the concepts behind the term, but instead he insists on derailing threads by endless arguing about the definition. I don't know that the intent is to be confusing, but that's certainly the result.

Ffs, we were almost done hammering out the details of our brilliant new scheme. Who told the adults what we were up to?

How can you guys not understand such clear and concise communications?

He's just, like, 5 levels above the rest of us chumps, obvs.

I still keep getting more of a pinkish than a purple hue. I think I still need another week to grapple with this system.

Why are we doing red and blue, with purple in the middle.

Red and yellow, with a nice sunset orange in the middle would be more aesthetically pleasing.
