Bartimaeus Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Well seeing as started off topic off the bat - I see no benefit in letting this run further. So wait, you're saying that if I just post something off-topic right away, I can get virtually any thread closed? Sweet! 3 Put fascists and sociopaths on your ignore list. Quote Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Americans must see themselves as Americans first! Not rich or poor! Not white or black! Any school that does this is a traitor to America! Inflammatory post aside, the article does bring a point that I find interesting about the US. Despite saying that it's a nation of immigrants there's very little variety, most groups tend to self segregate and you end up with large ethnic populations in some States. So you end up with a lot of hyphenated Americans and the rest that copy the trend of putting another nationality in front of yours. 1 I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.

This article is making a rather common sociological trend sound sinister. When people are free to live anywhere they want they do tend to sort themselves out. But I live in the sticks and since all my neighbors are animals I live in the most diverse neighborhood of them all.

Hurlshort Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 I'm not really saying anything is wrong with the threads that Spectre1 starts (ok, the cheerleading ones were weird), but it is a very bizarre pattern of behavior to just start topics on a bunch of different forums and never actually engage in them. Is it a bot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a bot? I think that is a common pattern across these forums. I always attributed to someone using their alts to express some of their more extreme views, or at least roleplay as someone else. Still, I'd say that the quality of alts has gone downhill in the past few years, they are just getting lazier and lazier. 1 I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
