What is Ignored Here

[IrishGirl]

There is a lot going on in the political thread, and it all tends to be one-sided.  And because of that, I think it is telling that the rhetoric so many people here support accumulated in a protest outside a journalist's house, Tucker Carlson's, with threats that he's not safe made not to him, but to his family.

And as where some of you may agree that, yes, it went too far, others are blaming the victim for, well, for being on the other side of the political divide.

In the haste to smear everyone of a different point of view as a fascist, Nazi, Russian Bot, whatever it seems that this encouragement to hate is being taken to new levels.

But, then again, that can be assumed from people that would attack a Sanders supporter for merely carrying an American flag to a protest.

I suppose it still depends on what side you are on, but really, this is something that SHOULD be seen as going too far.

Irish slut, no one should have protestors outside their home or have their meal interrupted by people disagreeing with their politics.  In fact, that really annoys me because it plays into the right’s rhetoric that all the left are like that, dangerously uncivil.

I’d ask athos to weigh in, but he’s probably off ruining someone’s lunch.

Especially when people are allowed to carry the (50) Stars, and Stripes along with the Stainless Flag, the Schwastica flag, AND the Gadsen Flag, all in the same image.

I mean, at least pick a side.  Either you're for America as it stands, America as it stood in the Revolutionary War (When Slavery was legal, and only Landowning men could Vote) the Confederacy, who left, and declared war with America, or the Nazis.  How the fuck can those 4 flags ever march together?

I’d ask athos to weigh in, but he’s probably off ruining someone’s lunch.

Well, I'm back up to 41 Kharma again, so it should only take a minute to get revenge on me telling him to "Let it go."  Again.  I'm sure he'll be right with you after that.

[psiberzerker]

So let me get this straight.  Is this the official "Nobody's saying that, so I'm going to say you said it BEFORE you get a chance to disagree with me" thread, or not?

Also, I'm not getting the attention, and personal attacks I crave to play the victim in Politics, so I'm coming back out of my echo chamber to spam General Discussion with the same political strawman until someone calls me a White Supremacist.

Sad.

a fascist, Nazi, Russian Bot...

Repeated, verbatum.  From the last time we refused to attack you.  Do I hear an echo?  Congratulations, you've just been promoted from Captain Obvious to Major Persecution Complex.

It’s what’s called a self-fulfilling prophecy.  I know you’re going to attack me sooner or later, so I’m reacting before it actually happens.

In all fairness, they both do it.  The Irish slut is a lot cuter though, at least to my heterosexual eyes.  Plus, I have a history of talking to the Irish slut as I affectionately call her.  I know her fairly well, and I got a good idea what makes her tick.  Those that only see the surface, don’t see what I see.

[psiberzerker]

Yeah, in the stir up shit in General Discussion, because it didn't satisfy her in Politics thread.

I tried not attacking her, I thanked her, welcomed her back, lauded, and applauded her for 2 days straight, and she still played the victim.

She wants to be attacked.  Let's see if that actually satisfies her now...

Wherefore must thee calleth this lady names? Wherefore doth thou has't to beest cruel? that lady opinion is different, t doesn't maketh that lady lacking valor. Showeth yourself to beest a valorous person and not fig those who don't believeth as thee doth.

I'd ask you to fuck off, I'd rather you go fuck yourself.

This is rich coming from you.

Don't you have someone to dox?

What names?  Name one.  Snowflake?  That's Jeb's word of the month.  I didn't call her anything but She, and Her.

Right now the only opinion she has is her opinion of everyone's opinion of anyone who doesn't agree with us.

[Athos_131]

The name I'd use is Imposter.

Yup, it's officially the Echo Chamber thread.  Thanks for playing...

Chirp, you just want me to call you slut as a term of endearment too.

And why pray tell did you move to England, in the 18th century?

[psiberzerker]

Here's your point.  {Psiberpoints have no redeeming value.}  Hopefully he won't take it away out of spite...

I speaketh the truth at which hour I calleth myself a slut.  


thee don't approve?

Note:  "Slut" originally ment Filth, and had nothing to do with male, nor female roles.  In fact, rubbish bins were once called "Slut cans" back in the day, when everyone tried to emulate the prosaic style of Shakespeare.

A bard in hand is worth 2 in the bush!

I just gotta say, since this is basically a thread specifically for picking fights, it belongs in 1408.  There's 0 political content in here, just rhetoric.  (And bastard purple prose)

Politics is in 1408, and I’ll likely get back to the topic of uncivil leftwingers at some point.

Interesting how it's still being largely ignored, especially by the people that pander this rhetoric, and in this case often mocking the objection to using this rhetoric.
