"This has become impossible to moderate, with the rate at which people are insulting each other"

not after 200, 400 or 600?

what "moon bombing" even was so I don't try to figure this insanity out...

that whole episode was enough for me to start avoiding such stuff...I try real hard not to get embroiled in a long, drawn out war online...it is really not worth the time and energy at my age....

It was most of DU talking about a NASA lunar mission versus a few exceedingly silly people who felt that targeted telekinetic psychic actions had saved the secret star folks lunar colony from a NASA/Illuminati bombing attempt.

Then again, I recently observed a friend of mine on facebook being "attacked" by some people because they thought she was a reptilian. Which would have been hilarious if she didn't live in the same town as some of the people.
