President Biden Accountability Thread

That's the way with message boards. Ones dominated by liberals beat the few conservative posters until they get tired of it. Ones dominated by conservatives beat the few liberal posters until they get tired of it.
 
Yeah, we didn't run off anybody. If the libs would quit name-calling we would have more of you here.

Yes, we do hit libs here hard because you guys spread MSM disinformation as fact.
 
I love diverse perspectives that show me things I may not understand until my own life experiences prove the other perspective false. Then the other side doubles down and name calls and says I don't know what I'm talking about or mouth piecing Fox news, etc.

I accept my experience may not be the same as everyone else, but when the other side hates ANY other perspectives than theirs and starts name calling I have little patience for that. Like being called a chicken humper for absolutely no reason at all. That wasn't pointed at one person, it was pointed at pretty much the entire west mall posting group. Well go **** yourself.
 
Geez Bubba
How lame can you get?
To get banned for "Gird your loins" ? :lmao:
If that was the best snark you got then you deserved it
I know you can do better and look forward to your more subtle barbs in the future
Or maybe you can come up with an explanation / defense of Kammie 's pòĺìcies.

Here’s a manifesto for you. I didn’t go away because I couldn’t defend my positions. I still post on relevant items over on the football side as I have since dial up modems and Cedric Benson was a pup. I drill down into the hellscape that is West Mall about once a week these days to see what flag you chicken humpers are running up the pole and I still receive notifications for threads over here. I've always appreciated a rival's board more than a Sooner board. I think that's why I gravitated to politics in these forums. I think you gain more by disagreeing with people and defending your positions than you do standing in line at the gang bang. That's where you guys are now as you’ve run off anyone not riding on the trump train and screaming MAGA. I enjoyed it here and even acquiesced to ii’s bullying to become a sponsor.

I vowed off of posting on west mall last summer (I think). I will provide some insight as I think it's appropriate and could be helpful. I break down the posters from my point of view into three categories. There is a small segment that could agree with me 100% but will still be ****** to me due to my status as a Sooner. I get that, I see Sooners do that to visitors on our boards. I just ignore them. There are some posters in this forum with whom you can disagree and engage in friendly banter. Many I grew to really like and jab at in a playful way. I exchanged positive private messages with many. The third group that I butted up against were those who were simply intransigent and refused to see the world from any other perspective than their own and they were always right. If you disagree it's because you were mistreated as a youth, you’re a beta, etc. This is typically a “base” voter who will vote for the orange guy who wears lifts, a girdle, and makeup.

I tired of putting forth a reasonable defense of a position and, instead of hearing something akin to “I see where you’re coming from, and, while I disagree…” you receive the equivalence of “that’s what’s wrong with you libtards you ignore facts and spew soros talking points” or the “facts” provided to support the OBVIOUS fact was clear Russian propaganda. Hell, at least one poster seemed to do nothing but post that **** to the point that I think he operated on a St. Petersberg clock. It’s difficult to deal with that routinely and not lose your patience. I’ve been treated poorly and called some names/terms that clearly violated the terms of this site. It never bothered me and I never reported anyone and never even thought of it. I was a visitor and acted as a guest should act. When I became a sponsor I acted less like a guest but I had grown a thick online skin thanks to you *******. I did “poop” some posters. I thought it was funny when I learned that it irritated a few because I received a ton of unnecessary “poops”. 😊

I initially was reported and was asked to delete the comment “gird your loins”. That’s a phrase I’ve used for decades to connote that you need to get ready for a tough game, battle, etc. I think I got it from my dad. I don’t know. It's an old idiom. It wasn't about the actual genetalia. It seems I got reported frequently. The issue was that anything that I did, even in a playful manner with people who I considered “forum friends” would get reported as violating the rules. The petty deal breaker to me was when the same poster tried to defend the position that her “FOAD” (the **** off and die that eventually led to Seattle getting banned) was not equivalent to my “FO”. I mean, come one, mine was actually posted to someone I considered a message board friend and used as a movie quote. . To be clear, I was banned for a week or so over this kind of petty ********.

My opinion was that I was a Sooner sponsor on a Longhorn board who was treated less well than other posters because the snowflakes reported any minor transgression regardless of context. At the end of the day, tilting at the windmill that was West Mall was not good for my outlook on life, even as it helped me form better opinions because I had to defend them. My time here also pushed me a little to the middle by getting some good information from the right. But, I went away before I got banned or had a stroke. I don’t blame Dion. You guys make it tough for him.

Personally, this place would be way better if you’d cultivate a forum that treated differing opinions quasi-respectfully. Many of you did but those that didn’t made it a world that wasn’t worth clicking into. The issue is that it’s 2024 and the base is still clinging to the 2020 election being stolen and that this one will be as well. Hell, look at the first page of the Maricopa thread. It’s laughable. Or look at the millions that Fox"news" and others have had to pay to Smartmatic in court settlements for libel – them’s facts. Most of you guys still see what happened on 1/6/21 was simply a protest. Or that Trump didn't make fun of that disabled guy. Or that that Trump is somehow beholden to or supporting of actual Christian values. Miss me with that junk. Hit me up when differing opinions that aren’t pushing us to a theocratic autocracy in lock step with Russia, North Korea, etc. are welcomed differently than as done presently.

Take care. Boomer!

PS: Sorry you guys took a hit on those Let's Go Brandon flag investments.

Coach, I've never reported anybody and was against Seattle Husker getting the Pete Rose treatment. I've made that clear multiple times. And you should keep coming around. Revel in the abuse, and have a beer. It'll make you stronger.

I just heard Bidone'sFEMA dropped palettes of ELECTRIC chainsaws into Little Switzerland NC. They haven't had power since the storm. :rolleyes:
 
This really ticks me off and not for the most honorable of reasons. As I’ve stated before my daughter has been paying off her enormous law school student loan all while working as a public defender for over 15 years. By paying overage the loan is almost covered and she has never qualified for forgiveness because her daddy co-signed the original notes. On one forgiveness application she was told she had not been paying for 10 years - bs, she has been paying almost 18 years. I can only guess that because the loan has been reallocated (like one’s mortgage) numerous times the payment records are difficult to trace. Regardless, while I am opposed to the loan forgiveness program by principle I am pissed my public servant daughter cannot get in on it.

I certainly understand how you feel. Especially considering she's being a public servant to the community. I once got to know an Asst. DA real good. When he told me what he made I was embarrassed.

Yep. She got a substantial raise this year and was ecstatic. Trust me it’s still an embarrassment, like my other daughter the teacher. Good thing they are devoted to a cause but I still gave her a hearty congratulations like a good dad and avid supporter.

Nash, I don't know when your daughter applied for PSLF, but if it was more than 4 years ago, she should re-apply. Mrs. Deez applied in 2018 and got rejected because she had made the "wrong kind" of payments. They weren't too small. They just didn't fit the regulatory criteria. After Biden got rid of some of those rules, she re-applied, and they got forgiven.

Also, I'm sure she's underpaid as a public defender, but she is doing God's Work. Even if she represents the guilty, she is the primary defense of the public against a tyranical government. Prosecutors primarily follow the Constitution because of people like her. She should be proud.
 
Thanks Deez for the input. It’s so low now hardly worth the humiliation in the fight.
HDH I do not disagree I just hate to see my daughter get the short stick.

I'm disgusted with the Biden policy on forgiving student loans. I was taught a simple concept - "If you borrow money, pay it back."

I am with you. I have some student loans to pay off. I wish I could use my GI Bill to cover the loan since I am not going to use it.
