Don't you think those on that side wouldn't do the same to you though? I mean I had to look up what happened to understand this thread. But I'm not sure these tactics are wise concering the situation. Perhaps not doing that either way?
What I'm serious. If the issues at hand is sides at each other's throats, we need to perhaps take a break from it all? Cool off a bit. A lock is not always a bad thing
If that was the case, I would not hear or see as many morons use "Let's go Brandon" as currently are doing so.
Hey, Arlon sent me a Korean candy making set so he's not so bad. Actually I need to make those. Maybe this week I'll have family over.
See, I'm in the military, and because I'm in it I decided I wouldn't talk politics online. I will say hearing that saying is awkward and weird for me. Especially when I first heard it. My name is Brandon
Honestly I don’t think anyone here that I have interacted over my seven years with has been bad. Minus the trolls. The longer the thread remains locked for the more likely there will be spill over. If the mods think they can handle that all so be it. It’s their choice.
It’s not my choice. I can complain about the existence of the thread as much as I want. But even if one person likes it. I think it should stay. Not saying I am not a suck up. Just saying I try to be the least confrontational I can be. Hence why I don’t post in the US political thread that often.
1. Although we're deploying humor hard as a coping mechanism in this thread, I don't really think it's working to smooth things over. 2. I don't really think that's about the politics thread at all, especially given that there was nothing particularly charged about the original discussion. Instead, there was a very weird serious of decisions to get very personal and amp up minor disagreements. Maybe that's what we should avoid in the future. 3. I don't know whom this was either fun or enlightening for, but I certainly wasn't in that group. If that's what we're doing these days count me out.
Great, I just know Congress is gonna pass a huge social spending bill and I'm gonna miss it because the thread is locked.
