I'm referring to the way the "Republican" comment was flagged while the "Democrat" one was not. That kind of selective bias. I get it in Politics, where (in theory) one should be able to take any position. And when I get it, it may or may not come with a notification. Sometimes it just disappears without a trace. Other times it disappears with a trace. But when it happens the content targeted is very predictable.
Yeah, I get what youre saying. I can't say that I've ever had that happen to me. But, you know, the reality is that we're on someone elses front porch. Know what I mean?
Putting that aside, something that I appreciate more than anything in places like this is if someone isn't afraid to man up and take it to me if they disagree with something I say. I'm pretty much always in a good mood even if my tenor doesn't reflect it. I'm not really looking for a fight. There's nothing to be had from it.
Now here's something, and it's kind of funny in hindsight, I probably should have got an infraction a few times around here but I didn't. There was one thread around here I asked a person to go make us a sandwich while we worked things out in the thread. But the reason I did it is because she's one of the more courageous ones around here and not particularly stupid. Reason I threw the bobber out there in that instance is because I didn't like the stupidity of the thread content and I wanted to bait someone into helping me change the direction of the thread who might be just brave enough to react and just smart enough to unknowingly help me hijack the thread and make it relevant and something of substance. She didn't take the bait, though, and I left the thread. Ha. Funny thing about it is that I didn't really care about the thread to begin with, I just wanted to see if I could do it. lol. I'm an INTJ, so. I dunno.
