danglars trolling again, annoying.

Your post's thrust, from what I could understand of it, overshadowed action by intent. I think too much is being drawn to the intent side of things, but if you disagree please disagree, don't just accuse me of trolling and jetpack on out of there.

what the fuck dude? the "thrust [. . . ] overshadowed action by intent?" but "too much is being drawn to the intent side of things?" what's the antithesis of intent? plain meaning?

the opacity of your writing is starting to make any conversation with you completely enraging. your escheresque sentences and dangling clauses give your name new meaning.
The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.

It doesn't matter if the order concealed discrimination by faking domestic security concerns (the action), what matters is the mean things Trump said about muslims on the campaign trail (the intent). That's using one to overshadow the other. If we were in the main thread, I'd ask if you can see those two in opposition.

I've always liked your turns of phrases. My writing is very escheresque and I use far too many dangling clauses.

so you meant the post of his that you think that he thinks you were trolling him about. not the post in this thread where he accuses you of trolling. i was all ready to talk about "intention to troll."

but fyi i stopped asking you about benghazi because i couldn't tell what your position was despite reading your posts two or three times. i dont care about a youtube video. i was asking about the 8 or 9 separate investigations the republicans conducted to find out that politicians don't tell the full truth.

everyone was also ganging up on you at the same time.

Well perhaps you should report the posts in question (or in your case, pseudo-report) and call it a day.

I report there's a problem here. And I did call it a day. there's no shortage of posts with violations from him. it's only a failure to moderate that's kept him from getting banned long ago.

It does in a debate with a Russian shill

C'mon, it was in response to a guy who is openly and blindly pro-Russian calling for "sidestepping the Russia issue". The should be two pages of people calling him out.

As if "Russia shill" wouldn't poison the debate further! It's childish name calling, not any attempt to call attention to anything. Pithy, derogatory insults would just cascade to infinity if they're tolerated.

Least shocking post here.

You want to be a troll or you got something useful to add here?


No one is side stepping anything, shit is about to go down.

Let me word it a little differently: whether it's about Russia or not this is quite clearly a political firing.


I thought it was pretty obvious that the above was what I meant. And if that wasn't something you could figure out I'm wondering if there's any reason to take you seriously.
History will sooner or later sweep the European Union away without mercy.

yes, which is why the thread is far worse than it could be; because you refuse to clean up the violators

I prefer preventative measures to surgery.
also i'd say even your bars should've been crossed by some of the stuff danglars did. but since you don't read the thread, you're highly unaware of the issues. one of the reasons I'd like if there were another mod in charge of the thread (if there are any available that are better, I don't know how deep the bench is for mod selection, but iirc very few are willing to handle the thread, so we take what's allowed)

Remember when we had coloured posts for fans of SKT and JINAIR in PL finals? That's what the US thread needs right now - every poster would be able to assign himself to dems or reps and his posts coloured accordingly; then some special posters could have even special colours, but it's a shame that red will be already taken, because that would be very suitable for a special poster.

You don't even adhere to your own idealized moderation standards, so it'd be best for everyone if you simply quit commenting on the moderation.

It would only work if people were allowed to upvote and downvote others political affiliation insofar as their perspective.

tbh it would also have to be either red or blue. A left-leaning forum (probably far-left from American standards) would just consider some moderate liberals as nonpartisan and the rest leftists. It would be fun to see all the pages that ended up fully colored blue, I have to say. The fun experiment would be who you voted for in the last presidential election or the average party voted for in the last five or six.

I don't know what I was thinking. An average of previous votes, put in your senators and congressmen if you feel like it. I'm more in for seeing the cool colors rather than actual improvement; you get an idea of where people are coming from pretty quickly without it.
