Of course.

But I don't mind that - I don't care what they make up about me. I only care about criticism of me that is reasonable - some of it was.

I do content sometimes. Like in the post above it should of gave you content into your contradictions. But it did not. You like a comfy safe space well at the same time point over at others bubbles. What ya going to do...

Looks the coming Px will be a smackdown rarely witnessed.
11-18-2017 , 05:14 PM
Gif of incompetent people smacking down goes here.

What P lacked was very clear: cogent and intelligent pro Right posters to challenge the assumptions of the lefties and shake them out of their comfort zone.

What it got instead was a bunch of people posting opinions such as Juans I've referenced, wil's anti-transgender and TS's anti Muslim rants, all under a set of arcane mod rules that hardly anyone understood and a mod who few trusted to be impartial.

God forbid they would have to do some more work. If they feel it gets more busy, hire more moderators.

So you mean balanced debate? It wasn't as if the left weren't well represented. It was just that for all Chez's good intentions he just couldn't keep up with them in practice but I think Well Named certainly was doing a good job and one, that I believe, had the respect of the regular lefties in P.

Still not sure why conservatives can't post in politics. Oh yeah, because they are all *******s who are more interested in seeing liberals cry than they are in talking politics. That and the blatant homophobia, racism, misogyny, anti-muslim and any other hate groups I missed.

I'm not sure why they can't post in any of the other 3-4 2p2 politics threads outside of the dedicated politics subforum.

Maybe you could try banning the white supremacists this time?

Anyone just to the right of tit-grope-hero-man is going to be deemed a nazi, so what's the ****ing point?

Maybe because they aren't in any political forum and the forum that they are in ties them to specific topics?
11-18-2017 , 05:43 PM
Yeah, I was told to get out of the POG politics thread because I'm not a regular games poster.
11-18-2017 , 05:44 PM
let's practice here. what do some of the exiled posters wish to discuss?

I'd like to point out that I called "dibs" as the next alternate politard forum designer back immediately after chezlaw was named to helm Baja (not that that's official, of course). I'd like to throw my virtual hat into the ring !!!1!

I feel I've put my time in as a politard (c2010 as MissileDog), and that I'm reasonably well respected ITF. I've mainly concerned myself for a while now with "meta" concerns regarding how chats play out ITF -vs- being a partisan "arguer"... which ties in directly with modding I gotta figure. I've been both "far-left" as a RWA, and "far-right" as a Neo-Gorean, so I can be basically neutral as to the usual customary US left/right spectrum.

I can also guarantee I'd create a unique political forum experience.

Don't bother with another forum, Mat will just sabotage it again like PU.

curious what you mean?

I thought it would have been clear by now that 'free speech zones' on the internet always lead to a never-ending queue of people popping in because this is the new place where you can say the n-word.

But moderators are attached to all the forums on this site so how can that be so? That is really a ridiculous argument and somes up most of the echo chamber's position.

Spank twice. Kerowo, Chezlaw. It was never going to work with these Mods. Also things were going fine when you decided to get rid of Elliot and Mod Chez.
11-18-2017 , 06:04 PM
Started to think about which name the new forum could be given. How about Politix? Short version Px.

Serious suggestion.

Security
Borders
Gun control
Foreign policy
Electoral issues
Immigration
Jobs
Nukes
Wars
Terrorism

Just to name a few off the top of my head.

Gun control e.g. I think your gun laws are insane.
