Because yesterday I thought that you and whole bunch of others base your opinions on what's progressive for the society and have reasonable behaviors.

But then afterward, I've discovered otherwise.

Like all the people that were posting against me all beginning swearing/acting in uncivilized manner which drastically changed my opinions on the level of perhaps not IQ but EQ.

Lots of you guys are VERY combative and VERY emotional unstable that goes immediately into fighting mode.

That's very primeval behavior.

I answer appropriately amount to people that deserves it.

I never said that there was any immigration problems.

I actually said to "Keep it that way" thank you very much.

The best part is that the photo used by Trumps camp was taken by a photographer without his approval. He also happens to be a refugee. And it way sent from an Iphone, which was invented and promoted by the son of a Syrian migrant. And Skittles isn’t pumped about it either, though I can’t say they are all refugees, two out of three is pretty good.

Its like the Trump camp created the perfect meme to totally undercut their message in every way.

all people mostly notice the loud/obnoxious ones on other sides. the larger amount of reasonable people simply stick out less. Also, reasonable people rapidly come to agreements, so they don't talk as much.

And yet the 'skittles controversy' is about immigration and your commenting on that controversy by agreeing that there are detrimental people trying to get into America...

Looks like we're about to have another round of discussion over Hillary's health. Some guy posted a video of her giving a speech where her eye movement goes out of sync at various points.

Did reality is king used to post here for a while? I feel like we've seen this exact same posting style before. Was the guy named cowboy or something? I forget. Either way, we've seen this exact same personality and posting style before. Walk into the thread replying to every liberal poster with baiting 1 liners and downright dismissing of science. Can't tell if it is a ban dodger or just s common archetype coming out of Reddit lately.

Cowboy24 wasn't banned. He just stopped posting after claiming that NATO dragged the United States into WW2.

Amazing politic discourse. I am trying to remember that posters name. He stumped for Trump really hard and then Kwark banned him with the note “I can’t believe you are a real person”, or something along those lines. It was for asking a number of pure bait questions about race in the “dumb questions thread”.

I think it's just a common posting style; the mods can check for signs of it being the same person. RiK doesn't seem like that other guy to me.

Not I. I had zero mod interactions with him and he was never banned.

As an admin on another forum, I would always do a quick IP check whenever someone suddenly dives head first into a political thread. I'd say about 50 percent of the time it was someone on anothet account. I imagine TL tends to do the same.

It was over a year ago, so I might not remember correctly. It was super early in the primary. The poster was a pure bait lord, it was sort of impressive how consistent he was.

This is going to bother me, I will need to travel back in time when I get home. It wasn’t as quality as the truther who believed Trump was going to make America safe for white people.(word for word) It subtle bait that lasted over a couple months and several bans.

I sometimes wonder if TL has any actual shills - not as an insult, not used to call someone out, but people who are actually paid to push a specific position. I know a few low content posters who I'm pretty sure were genuine paid shills. But you can never tell if it's really so or if you're just being a jerk to a shitty and/or outspoken person.
History will sooner or later sweep the European Union away without mercy.
