If you're gonna bombard the board with threads, please demonstrate the common courtesy of sharing your thoughts on the foreign propaganda you're seeding beyond a single sentence as well as why you feel that the foreign propaganda you're seeding needs to be discussed.

Thanks in advance. And have a nice day.

It's not just newbies that ignore the rules; we've got quite a few regulars that do it as well.

It's beyond just the rules, though.

It's a damned insult to people's intelligence. Certainly a disrespect and complete lack of regard for it and confirmation that the purveyors of the routine are not in any way interested in actual discussion but rather just planting propaganda in repetition like it's some kind of video game or something. Like Bejeweled or what the heck ever...

I'm talking about the ones where you open the site and they have a half dozen or better threads...With 6 posts.

It would be nice to get shed of all the dupes.....Hey, maybe make the Active Topics page the default opening page.

It's very easy to see that some paid posters are right here under your noses. Posting from the good US of A.

Israel to Pay Students to Defend it Online

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel is looking to hire university students to post pro-Israel messages on social media networks — without needing to identify themselves as government-linked, officials said Wednesday.

The Israeli prime minister’s office said in a statement that students on Israeli university campuses would receive full or partial scholarships to combat anti-Semitism and calls to boycott Israel online. It said students’ messages would parallel statements by government officials.

.....

“Everyone who believes in the cause, and wants to join, can join,” he told The Associated Press. He said the office was looking to budget $778,000 for the project,...

All one needs to do is scroll down just a tiny bit to see if there's already a thread.

The dupers would still dupe...They're just that lazy and in desperate need of attention.

Foreign posters should be IDENTIFIED as non US. Some at least have the honesty to do that, MOST DO NOT. That should be a minimum requirement for the US Message Board. They are only here to either make money or smear the country, the President and the people they hate.

It's not just the foreign posters, several regular American based posters do the same thing as well.

I just happened to get a bug up my ass this morning when I realized I was just wasting my time clicking on some threads in Current Events, which is what seems to be the sub-forum that is most utilized for the practice, that happened to turn out to be just a bunch of foreign propaganda being seeded with just a little one-liner, itself being about as deep as a mud puddle.

I quickly realized that discussion or debate was not the intent of the OP, but rather just planting seeds of foreign propaganda, likely just to see what sticks and what they can run with and what doesn't.

Ignore is for wusses.

Ignore is for wusses.

A lot of the people on my ig, if you click on em, it says profile not available.

So I guess they're canned from the board for keeps.

I'm content to view that outcome as confirmation of my good judgment in placing those particular low-value posters there in the first place.

The few who remain; it's likely just a matter of time...

The users who once posted in the more obscure sub-forums are now posting in Current Events and Politics. These brain surgeons finally looked at some simple statistics and figured out Current Events and Politics have the most viewers.

It's true that there is very little difference in content between a foreign troll and a US citizen who hates Trump. I'm just saying we should know if the person posting is a US citizen or a foreigner. It would be a real eye opener as I suspect some of the long term posters here who have been posing as US citizens are foreigners.

Yeah, maybe. But it's not that I'm pissing and moaning about foreigners themselves posting here, per se.

I've had some really good, lively debate/discussion with posters from/in abroad.

Just the ones who function in the way that I referenced in the OP are the ones who rub my ass the wrong way. Wasting people's time with that Mickey Mouse routine...

So, how DO you want your ass rubbed?

You have accused many who defend Jews against antisemitism of being foreign agents, so is that it?

Well. Here we go with this shit again. Heh heh.

This isn't yet another antisemitism thread and I'm not gonna let you flip the switch and turn it into yet another one, but I'll respond to your routine as a courtesy. Firstly - You're not defending Jews against anything. Your time on here with regard to that particular area of discussion/debate is largely and observably spent in a very infantile way. Your use of the the platform to ''defend the Jews against antisemitism" consists of addressing any forum usership who does not agree with your solutions as ''Hamas member.'' And then asking them ''how many babies have you cut from wombs today.'' Dumb Mickey Mouse shit like that.

And secondly - You don't often demonstrate yourself to be interested in civil, meaningful debate/dialogue either, but rather purposefuly initiate the incurring flotsam and jetsam at every opportunity in which you can find to do so, observably. You're just a common shit-stirrer.

Now...yes, I know that's likely how you view ''defending Jews against antisemitism,'' the noble cause that it is, but really, you routinely demonstate yourself to be a very poor purveyor of your cause in the way in which I referenced this routine of yours.

That's the kind of poster you are, man. You're a very low-value poster in that regard. You just freakin stink, man. In my view anyway.

So get back in your hole. I've got no respect for you.

Or we can go downstairs to the hole and work it out. Don't matter to me either way.

I will say, though, and to your credit, you're not the only one who operates like that. We see the same from both so-called ''sides,'' of the gambit, but all that means is that you feed off each other and the whole thread and eventually the board itself goes to shit, at least for the threads on the first two pages anyway...and eventualy most of the pages. It makes meaningful, fruitful, civil dialogue near impossible.
