You don’t get a pass because lots of people agree with you.

Yeah, that thread is full of talk about the <checks Mason's post> economy. (or any talk of policy whatsoever). It does include chat about how some races just like to commit crimes more though.

Sorry for just quoting myself, but:

So Augieland is an April fools joke, right?

So c'mon WN. Isn't time for you to mod a politics forum again?

Words like "****" and "*******" and "*****" are commonly heard on primetime TV shows nowadays. Why do you censor them on your site? (also serious)

I just met with this old roofer and within 30 seconds of meeting he was talking to me about a coup d'etat and George Soros and plans to move millions of people here and move everyone off the coasts.

Did he end with "April fools"?

Pretty good troll by the LA Times.

Lol no. If it had occurred to me I would have asked.

That was a really good article. Took me till the second paragraph to 100% realize it was a troll.

Ya, most of the country thought mlk and the civil Rights movement we're wrong. That didn't make them right.

Here is INTELLECTUAL HEAVY WEIGHT BEN SHAPIRO

Trolly - I think that's two years old.

The moderator version of Republicans giving liberals "helpful advice" about who they should nominate for their presidential candidate

Mason apparently likes AM radio??? lol that's ****ing wild

he cares so little he's helpfully warning us in a smarmy, passive aggressive post. <3 whadda guy <3

The economy is not "super strong". I mean, for the super rich it is, but when roughly 80% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, that doesn't seem like a characteristic of a healthy economy to me.

You're right, sorry.

I have a strong feeling that with Trump and his entire family fully exonerated by a thorough (albeit partisan and illegal) FBI criminal investigation, at least half of the "disapprove" people will wake up to see a booming economy and start supporting Our President and Our Brave Troops Overseas. That fact coupled with a stiff crackdown on illegal voters will ultimately give rise to a permanent republican majority across all three branches of government.

And if anything other than that happens I will absolutely ****ing lose my ****.

Wouldn't tptb relish the # of hits a forum like 8chan or whatever gets? In my experience, owners of sites like this care less about the quality of content and more about how many hits that content is generating. (I could list some examples from this site where this sentiment was vocalized in no uncertain terms, but I won't, for the sake of peace.)

I could be wrong, but it seems kinda obvious to me. Saying 'omg you don't want to be whatever terrible site that oh hey sidenote gets tremendous traffic' is probably not going to be effective IMHO. Bc... they do want to be a site that gets tremendous traffic, and whether the site is terrible or not would certainly be debatable from their perspective IN that instance.

Anyway..

Tldr, you guys are appealing to the wrong sensibilities re tptb

a few years ago 2p2 cracked down on bikini pics in bbv4l because they were worried about advertisers. i would THINK that moving the tone of these boards more towards the messageboard that livestreamed a racist murder spree would look worse to advertisers than girls in swimsuits but i'm not a businessman.

The economy has been strong and growing for some time, but it only counts when a Republican is in office. Because when the Obama was in office and the economy was strong the poor farmers and coal miners were all left behind and stuff. But now the farmers and coal miners are doing awesome, I think. I mean they must be.
