Yea the Democratic Party is pissing me off. The night of the election when it became clear Trump was winning, and the TV was saying "Fight back and join your local office!" I did so. I live in Broward County, FL (kinda a hotbed during election years) and signed up. It's now what? 2 months later? Other than the occasional group email, I haven't heard **** from them. There's no organization whatsoever. They just send out emails asking for money and all the emails start the same way.

"Friend...blah,blah,blah.

A small contribution will help."

**** you. I'm not giving you money so you can lose again.

LOL, that was exactly my situation. I simply could not beat this one girl in 4th grade. Thankfully she went on to win the 100m at state in the largest HS division so I ended up not feeling too bad years later, but it ate at me nightly before that, bad dreams, cold sweats.

Your other out: I didn't mean OP if [Trump]([substitute other person]) won.

Response. gtfo. can debate anything so long there is no parting from your line? you aren't that stupid. grow some.

2) Your post immediately pre-election is shameful ... just shameful. the tl;dr is precisely "Imma Bernie-bro, ghana hold my nose .. cos .. team" and absolutely 0 other content.


---

I'm calling you out because (1) you started the ****ing thread and (2) per what I know about you, you should be able to be more cogent, whatever your "feelz".
--

Obviously, (as with anyone's prognostications) your latest post may turn out to be spot on. But you've completely given up there being any reason for anyone, ex post facto, to give you any credit for it.


one thing thread saver

prolly: A belief that one should hold (if capable) to rigorous intellectual standards (and if so it's uninteresting to feign otherwise in honest debate).

But, f'sure, decide that there's no such thing as that/this isn''t one of those situations. Or that you just prefer to talk ****e to "win" (ie make it unpleasant for other people to debate with you).

it is "shameful" because it is so poor (intellectually). Do you not see that? Regardless of your self-identification politically.

I honestly doubt any one person in that cabinet is smarter than or more informed (about almost anything) than any Obama cabinet member's assistant, let alone any person who makes decisions of any import in the Obama administration.

Strap in, ladies and gentlemen, for the collapse of western democracy at the hands of the stupidest mother****ers who have ever stumbled into a position of responsibility. As President Obama said in his final public words to the White House press corps, good luck.
So western democracy collapses and then what? Are we all dead? Does civilization cease to exist? What does the world look like in 10,20,30 years iyo?

yes - kinda - because I have little interest in the specific questions, so it's really obtuse for CPHoya to post the stuff he does, and ... every other week when I drop back in it makes my mower take off.

Chad - my above wasn't a dig at you. But I think it is/would be/will be obvious to CPHoya and acknowledged by him that my summary of his post is accurate. So let me postpone elaborating until/unless that turns out not to be so.

false - if you really thought it was/they were you would have explained why.

This is typical CDLwolf territory - just call everything against your "interest" bad.

So no. My posts are fine.

I'll help you now then. Hoya wasn't trolling or posting badly from an objective point of view. He also wasn't calling people names. Saying that a group of people are dumb is a lot different than saying "you, tchaz, are an idiot" which of course I am doing solely for the purpose of demonstration and not because it reflects my views.

I will admit, as a proud Democrat, the barrage of awful fundraising emails is really, really ****ing annoying. Not that they spam me, but that they are so, so bad. Labeling three emails a day URGENT is not a good look.

No - you are wrong. Let's actually look at what CPHoya said

We embark on this project hoping to encourage fair and thorough exchanges of views, and also fair and thorough advocacy for positions. We should learn a lot.

Rules

4. Insults are out. You will not resort to that in this thread, because that will ruin this thread.

for example, what do you think his view of Shark Sandwich is?

Evil? ****ing stupid? or both?

It is extremely destructive of our environment to make any of those judgements

Further - it's terrible because it tries to prevent pov's similar to SS from expressing themselves.

Grow up!!! Make strong arguments against those with whom you disagree. Don't seek to ban them from expressing themselves,
