    It is very nice to see our friends on the right once again embrace courtesy, politeness and speaking with proper decorum. It seemed they'd lost their value of that when, for just one example, they made excuses for their political leader publicly calling immigrants "vermin."

    Here you go River, this is precisely the type of post being referenced in this thread. And, as far as my opinion re TDS on TWFSG, this is a great example. And, these types of posts infect very many discussions on the board. Just about any discussion about the ‘24 election or the likely GOP candidate is rendered a cesspool by comments like this.

    Now I know people repeatedly posting this mindless pablum generates ad impressions for GC …. but it does little advance any discussion. This is not normal human behavior.

    if you like narcissistic bigots, women hating fraudsters, treasonous drug addicts, and orange complected criminal grifters , I can understand that this view would be foreign to you.

    Note that I’d didn’t bring this up Garor2 did. He posted something factually correct and I was simply agreeing with him.

    OH well! Sorry not sorry.

    Hey River, here’s another great example of the sort of post being discussed.

    IMO, these folks can’t help themselves. I’m beginning to think there’s an endorphin surge from posting this stuff.

    I'm sure anyone can point to any number of posts that they would consider pointless distractions from reasonable discussion. Do you think your own always advance intelligent conversation?

    Far more frequently and to a far greater degree than the infantile diatribes seemingly condoned by board admins. Perhaps some of us were wrong to expect a bit more discernment ….. hoping to see a reduction in the number of discussions that devolve into mindless cesspits.

    To be fair, you should expect some healthy skepticism when a supporter of someone who supports a sitting President who orchestrated a conspiracy to overturn a legitimate election AND watched gleefully while hundreds of police were beaten starts a thread with..... "This is a prime example of how the highly educated and peaceful left react when they realize their losing."

    Perhaps the "peaceful left" should have organized an insurrection, in the mind of the OP?

    Some of yall weren't here for the Obama years and it shows. Threads on tan suits and a marine had the audacity to hold an umbrella for him. And right wing posters definitely didn't lost their minds over either.

    Well, it's easy enough to eliminate the mindless TDS-driven nonsense from the threads, and it's being done. Good start already. Carry on.

    I'll stipulate that if each of us were not passionate about our political leanings we probably wouldn't waste the time to post on a message forum that no matter what is posted, it will not cause most any of us to pause and reflect that maybe you might have a point. I have tried to not refer anymore to Biden as Bidumb, idiot in chief and any other derogatory term simply because when I read someone else and they start with the typical Trump slang, I don't usually give there point any credit. We can all do better at this, and you want more engagement with passionate political pontificators, it would be wise for all of us to ease up on the stupid slang names we have all created for the 2 people that one of them will be our next president.
    Our bias always gets in the way of seeing what something actually is. Just like my bias gets in my way to see Trump as the evil Hitler many of you claim he is, your bias gets in the way of seeing just how far Biden's mental capacity has been diminished in the past few years. Unless something comes totally unexpected, we will have one of these guys to deal with for the next four years.

    I agree that juvenile name-calling can often prevent meaningful discussion, or even indicate serious mental or character flaws in an individual. And I can't tell you how much I applaud your bravery in condemning this from private individuals on a message board.

    Now if you could just do the individual you will presumptively endeavor to elect as President of the United States.

    (from a few days ago)

    In a torrent of posts on Truth Social, just weeks before he is expected to clinch the nomination, Trump had no appetite for comity, blasting Haley as “BRAINDEAD” and “BIRDBRAIN.”
