it's interesting to finally be able to interact with them without them getting immediately zotted like they are here. And, for the civil ones who are actually amenable to, and intelligent enough for, some discussion, it's even more interesting. Sometimes echo chambers can get pretty boring.

why the f*** would you support a party that is anti-worker, anti-science, homophobic, misogynist, pro-torture, etc.?

Besides, a person can be both civil and intelligent without being logical.

if you give a flying f*** about ANYONE but yourself you would not support the republican party

they've got nothing else.

My post on your op was hidden.

If you wield a sting, wield it with loving care!

I'm so glad you're there.

You speak with authority and wisdom, and it's great to see.

Thanks for your kind words, PeggyLove!

It's kind of ood how they keep arguing that those people don't represent the party, but in a very literal sense, they do. When people don't actively say, "Hey, that's fucking not right," they de-facto endorse it. It's like people saying, "Well they're just not real Christians" about Christians who say fucked-up stuff. Refute it (loudly) or own it!

But this right here is very special to me: http://www.discussionist.com/?com=view_post&forum=1015&pid=2218

Whack-a-troll!

Kind of a soft hack. Log in twice. On one login swipe over gender, then look at the source, then double click on gender ...when it opens and shows the selections click edit text and change it to what ever you want then update and leave the tab on for that login ...and then use your other login.

It has basically the same effect but it feels better when I stop.

for something like that. Given a couple of drinks I might play along for awhile but so far it's looking a lot like Yahoo Groups.

That's why this new site is so nostalgic for me.

maybe when I'm in double plus super procrastination mode, rather than just giant procrastination mode.

....so if anyone shows up there as some variation of RainDog - it ain't me. If I go there, I'll use the same user name, tho.

I thought I did, but it's much better not being known there

I expect some epic moments watching wingnuts melt down when exposed to the facts.

Cripes!

they will never guess who I am

And I'm enjoying your posts, also. And I love that I have a different name there and no one knows who I am, at least not until they figure it out, which they probably will soon, lol.

Kinda dull so far, (20min)

Five minutes and I was done there.

that he/she was wrong, and killed a Benghazian with links.

Hot-digity-damn!

the folks here on DU hoping the people they don't get along with will go there and stay.

I don't think I have the energy, but I will continue to give it a try as Cerridwen.

Nice looking site, I can see you are having a ball.

rightwingers make me sick

and I see conservatives are there, and our "progressives" who don't believe in privilege (whether white, straight, male, or some combination) seem really happy to have more people who agree with them to talk to. They can bash "others" with the Rand Paul fan club.

and my account temporarily suspended (and all of my posts from yesterday removed) but the homophobic and misogynist posts are all still there.

time that will hapoen.

I have alerted on the jury decision so we'll see what happens.

Guess I'm just not into arguing with fools today. Hell, this place is getting bad enough.

Spending more time in non-political areas, and enjoying it...

I don't play well with republicans. My first and only post got hidden 7-0 (and rightfully so).

I prefer DU, where I don't have to worry much about hearing republican rants that make me say bad things. I've decided stay here where I belong and where I don't want to knock some poster's block off.
