I know this is gonna get moved but I want visibility.

Every god damn thread only gets a few posts in before Seriously? just starts copy-and-pasting stuff that's posted on r/the_donald and you guys all rush over to respond and argue with him.  It completely derails threads.  If there's one thing I don't need to read any more of it's people trying to argue with the guy.  Sometimes I read on in hopes that some other conversation might pop up later down the thread but it usually doesn't happen.

For heaven's sake, just stop responding.  You're not proving anything to anyone by pointing out that Bill Clinton never raped anybody or that Hillary Clinton isn't dying.  And you're certainly not going to convince him.  All you're doing is giving him what he wants and helping to destroy a thread.  Just stop.

Yea, I've been thinking about this myself, and I agree. He's better left off in his own bubble of stupendous cognitive dissonance.

Or, better yet, just put him on ignore. It makes this board significantly more tolerable.

I'd like to but everyone else keeps responding to him so it's not like it would salvage any threads.

Will do.

It's cathartic to highlight the... problems of archetypical Trump supporters. But you're absolutely right that it doesn't contribute anything to discussing the election.

He's almost singlehandedly ruined this board. I have no idea how he has the time to post here this much. Dude's entire life consists of doing pro bono damage control for the Trump campaign on a small internet forum.

What makes you certain it's pro bono?

I didn't know that this board was for Democrats only.

You folks are truly intolerant human beings that can't stomach someone that challenges your world view and thinking.

Apparently, all that should be posted in an elections forum is stuff that is pro-Clinton. Gotcha.

It was the same thing that had Sparks getting in trouble. The biggest thing was the derailment aspect (although Seriously has a few more problems than that going on, like knowingly posting from unreliable sources).

To paraphrase Warren Buffett's 2 rules of investing:
Rule one: Always ignore Seriously?
Rule two: Never forget rule one.

Name one "unreliable" source that I have posted from.

You liberals so love being the arbiter of what's acceptable. And your scorn and ridicule will do NOTHING to deter me.

The fact is, you don't like the message, so you seek to censor it. Over and over and over again.

It's really appalling how the left on this board treats most blue avatars that don't agree with them, including posts like this in an attempt to quell discourse. You should be taking your tolerance and diversity memes to heart. Instead you try to shut the other side down. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

If I started saying Trump was a murderer and a rapist who killed people every day and was about to die, would you try to kick me off? You aren't a normal hack, friend, you're a liar and an argumentative one at that.

The whole point of this thread was that we shouldn't provoke Seriously by responding to his posts. And you did exactly that.

It's a good thing Seriously? hasn't found this thread yet. He hasn't posted at all in it last I checked. Hopefully it stays that way Wink

I ask myself, Seriously? Is this real? It's such a shock that it is.

It's invariably funny pointing out all the reasons why he should be embarrassed, though, either by Trump's activities or his own behavior.

Who cares?

We all know he'll pack his bags in November if and when Trump gets squashed.
