If you don't want to hear about relevant comparisons to Russian actions in the 2016 election, don't bring it up.

Been that way for a while now, it's just that certain shittiness is more apparent to you and the left than others.

just don't read or respond to it. it's largely a waste of time.

Do you normally regard talking politics in a gaming forum as not normally a waste of time, unless you are paid for it?

obviously not.

but wait isn't this a waste of time? and what's the point of working if every experience is fleeting and everybody must die and the sun will incinerate everything on the planet before burning out itself? isn't life a waste of time and isn't there nothing worth doing??????!

I remember there being a kzwiak (sp?) guy during the election who was writing essays after essays of materials shilling for Hillary.

He doesn't even go visit gaming threads and once Hillary lost, poof he is gone.

I don't doubt that there are some people getting paid to astroturf.

there are certain ways in which the forum can be entertaining or even possible productive to (ie learning new things and practicing laying out arguments or writing in general). other times the thread goes down some shitty trail where i just skim the pages and don't bother thinking too hard about.

and since i do usually browse from work, in a sense i am being paid to do this, albeit indirectly.

yeah and in a sense you are being paid to do everything you do. you are salaried i presume.

I always find the US pol thread entertaining and informative, but then again I don't live in the country.

thread could still really use an ignore feature to filter out users.
Great read: http://shorensteincenter.org/news-coverage-2016-general-election/ great book on democracy: http://press.princeton.edu/titles/10671.html zlefin is grumpier due to long term illness. Ignoring some users.
