huh? It's the same 5-10 people who've always done all the trolling. There's no way you're not aware.
The only results you'll accept is life bans for whoever you choose because you know best, as always. That's not how things work. A tad bit of appreciation for what you do have in comparison to the past may be warranted. I can only do so much.
This thread is peak TW forums. Ogron revives a dead thread to make a point everyone agrees with, Exalt comes in to stir the pot and kthx shows up because it's mildly political. While, just above that, Voth goes all "Rudy" on Spaceshark.
Forums are more active than the zone right now.
It is interesting, though, that the SCOTUS justices voting to overturn Roe were chosen by non-popularly elected presidents and, in some cases, confirmed by Senators representing a minority of the country.
I read snippets of the opinion and it very much reads like it was written for the history books. It's full of sweeping statements, grandstanding and politicking that is clearly meant to be read by some other justice 30 years from now.
Polls consistently show a majority of Americans want Roe to stay where it is. The overturning of Roe lays bare the fact that the USA has gerrymandered itself into minority rule.
Please, please, PLEASE leave the mods of this game alone. They are extremely sensitive and delicate people who weep tears of blood when you poke fun at them and even dare offer even a moderate criticism. They work VERY hard at what it is they say they do and we cannot afford to lose their gentle souls
In fact, the Democratic party, ideologically, hasn't move at all -- and is in line with the Republican party of 1982:
Don't let this or the upcoming repeal of Roe vs Wade, which will restrict the rights of half the population in America and repeal a law that has been in place for well over 50 years, distract anyone from the fact that no Republican President has won the popular vote since 1988, or that Democrats on average have to win 44 million more votes than Republicans just to have a 50-50 tie in the Senate, or that Obama nominated Merrick Garland for the Supreme Court and Republicans refused to allow his nomination, only to fill the empty seat after a Republican took office.
[...] America is as far-right ideologically as they come, in such an extreme way that the 'left' is MODERATE politically in the vast majority of developed nations. Absolutely nothing brought up by any politician in america, not even Bernie Sanders or anyone in 'The Squad' is even close to radical in a world-wide spectrum, making it laughable that rightists such as yourself claim you are moderate. You are not in reality.
This is correct.
Calling the Democrats radical, from a worldwide perspective, is absurd. Middle-of-the-road Dems would be Conservatives in Canada (our most far-right party), and left-wing Dems would be middle-of-the-road or right-ish Liberals.
In fact, the Democratic party, ideologically, hasn't move at all -- and is in line with the Republican party of 1982:
The Republican party is the one that has made a mind-blowing shift to the right.
I've lost track of aliases, but many of those ppl are this guy. Should have been life banned years ago. Looking forward to seeing other similar bans in future, and the zone being generally less aids.
Unsure how this all transpired or who this person is or what they did to get such a harsh sentence but there are people playing this game that voth and staff have let threaten, stalk and harass me to the point where bans should have been issued but it didn't happen. There IS selective treatment at times in how punishment is handed out. Not saying all staff is bad but saying enforcement of bans is very selective. Unsure of the particularities in this case so won't comment on it directly but I have ample proof in one case in particular that was never addressed after multiple complaints to staff about a particular person in my case. To this day this abuser continues to play freely.
