Like then, this Forum is a good place to get an extended view of Politics and also the general 'news.' It's good to read what others think and do even if, to me, a lot of them are crazy loons. It pushes me to actually seek the root of a discussion which, in turn, educates me.

How would you rate this board now compared to what it was a couple of years ago?

Swamped with MAGAt morons.

Exactly the same.
Just a few different names.

The fighting has always been here, but the level of maturity has plummeted.

What was once similar to a fight on the school yard has now become a childs ball pit full of toddler tantrums

Probably why alot of the good posters left

LOL as if supporting Biden is "logical and rational".

I have only been here a short while, but the place is so filled with rainbows and unicorns and pixie dust, I just about jism in anticipation every time I log on.

THANK YOU mods!!

Marxists always label those who disagree with them with insulting names. All Marxies are morons.

Moderating, the same, spot on.

TDS has multiplied 100 fold. (ie. Trump being brought up in threads that's got nothing to do with him, truly amazing at times)

The biggest thing I've noticed is, provide evidence to a poster's comment and ask a question, then........SILENCE. That's increased 100 fold too.

And just so many threads asking for opinions but with no poll, and you know there's like, say, 5 answers but no poll to collate the replies.

And it's very very binary, you are pigeon holed. If you lean Right you MUST be a,b,c and if you lean Left, you must be x,y,z. That way of thinking has increased too. No middle ground, it's an alien concept.

I started being active about 15 years ago. It was better back in the day. It was way funnier. Now it's nastier and the mods have banned most of the good posters!

However, I think politics and society have become worse over time, and I think the board merely reflects those changes in society.

It was way funnier.

I’ll second that.

Aren't you that died in the wool democrat pretending to be a republican who used to brag about your extensive collection of antique self-pleasuring devices?

Hey, Bones, long time no see!

When did you get out of rehab?

I've never really noticed that you've been around here since '05.

 

[Natural Citizen]

Anyway. It certainly is more mean spirited around here these days.

FZ is about the only area left that reflects any semblance of proper human relations.
