Political Discussion TWTD Rules 12:52 - Jun 21 with 10789 viewswaveneyblue

Post a question with a dig embedded (Gammons) and then announce that anybody who disagrees with the OP is an idiot (further on in the thread)

That sets the tone for some serious debate perfectly.

I usually stay out of this stuff, but recently its got really tedious

Feel free to have a pop, you know who you are.

I've already explained. When you ban a word you then have to enter all the acceptable words that encorporate the banned word. In this case words like tycoon, raccoon, cocoon. etc. I suspect there would be too many.

i was reading a behavioural scientist who says that the world went wrong in 2012 with the invention of likes and re-tweeting. since then it's all about manufacturing an opponent who you can win the internet against. you then get affirmation from your tribe by policing the ever more arcane rules you have invented to define where your tribe ends and the other (evil) tribe begins. discussion has ceased to be about anything real - it's just a performative form of gang affiliation.

And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show

Gav must have moved to a micro-services architecture, so submitting a post will be handled differently than reading a post, all part of getting ready for the mobile app, surely?

you might be on to something. would an example of this be your conduct towards darth koont perhaps?

i don't think it can really be claimed that i have a gang affiliation on here or that i particularly chase uppies? darth and i don't agree about much - anti-semitism denial being 90% of what we've interacted over. equally i don't think we've replied to each other very much in the past six months.

so no it really wouldn't be an example at all.

Well, I don't really have an opinion on your opinion to be honest. I haven't really noticed you posting.

Still, for every PJH who disappears, you'll be having more one-on one-time (and a constant stream of upvotes) from Paz and the gang! So you have that to look forward to at least!


Speaking for no-one other than myself, a CHealy post will usually be read.

Which isnt the case for other posters.

I might be in MCR this weekend, or I might be in Leeds.

What a dull story. I wonder who got the power pack.
