Patrick, don't take this as a knock on the site, but this thread has turned into a dumpster fire.... jesus. Everyone does realize no minds are going to be changed? I kind of thought the point of the thread was political humor. Post something humorous. We can agree or disagree if it's funny. This has now officially (more so than the past comments) become a divisive party line "I'm better than you, and you suck" thread.

@Patrick, why not a 24 hour maximum 5-post limit in this thread?

That way when somebody goes on a freakout or rage-filled bender, it doesn't end up with endless unfunny memes. And then I don't feel obligated to respond tit-for-tat. hahaha

bad idea, I think. Let people live out their TDS and/or love for Orange Jesus. Don't like thread, don't look at it.

TPBs paedophelia comment to all liberals was certainly a blast from left field, eh? BTW Which I steered clear of because comments are only a problem if the recipient refuses to be stomped on.

I don't always agree with TPB. I may be stepping out of bounds site rules wise, but I sometimes think he's a bit looney. BUT, he also has valid opinions that most the time are reasonable, if not correct. And if/when I disagree, I'll ask a question. Same with Marcus. Same with you (which I think I'm on your ignore list).

Discourse can be tense but also polite. You will receive what you put out. If you act a fool that's how people will treat you. This thread has devolved into foolishness.

Yea, unfunny because they make your whole new wave fascist tribe look absurd

Which Democratic Candidate do you prefer?

Sure wish you and Marcus would take a stab, even a list of preferred candidates in a ranked order.

Even someone not running for fucks sake! Tell us what you want and NOT mention Trump in it!

The problem is I think they like Trumps policy, they don't like his demeanor and personality. Which I'd actually agree with. Trump is a cunt. But he's doing something that no politician (he is now) has had the balls to do, hence why he got elected and will again. Nerds and wimps despise him. This is anecdotal fact.

But we still have to force the Democrats to start standing what the things they have been advertising all along

So who are you voting for in the presidential election?

This is comedy.

A Vermont Socialist, a Gay Mayor of a 3rd Tier City*, and a frumpy Minnesota Woman leading the pack so far. Trump better look out.

* Sorry, if you asked 100 people to name 10 US cities, lucky if South Bend was mentioned once. Really an exurb/satellite city. He must be the Deep State Candidate, the could-be-anybody candidate.

Had they let Tulsi debate she would be the front runner. She's still my girl in the primaries. I'd have to look at her platform before I voted for Trump if she was the dem candidate.

That seems reasonable to me. I can see it's distracting to have a very active hate-filled thread on the home page, but once you know that's what it's about, why bother to look at it again?

The best solution to bad ideas is to ignore them. Replying or talking about them gives them free advertising.

I'm open to ideas about how to change the site though.

Not belittling, it's a desperate intervention.

Dude, that's over-the-top desperate, not funny. One of the key factors of the Left Can't Meme is overdependence on text rather than imagery.

You should be able to get it in a second or two, not have to scroll down a wall of words.

This is a reasonably funny and proper meme: No paragraphs of text, simple picture.

Tell us about your mother.

Nicest woman you'd ever meet.

We have no real choices. The system is only going to let someone they want in. They must have wanted Trump because he is our president.

I heard that Trump was a hired actor paid to lose to Hillary.

It's all political theatre. They love it when we fight over the actors in the play while they continue to rape and pillage.
