GD-P is as ugly as ever...

When I enter I sit for a full minute and say---what the fuck!

It will be a fascinating day when The Admin puts an end to it. I'm Curious how they will do it. Delete GD-P all together--start a new forum called General Election with very specific rules? That's what I suspect will happen.

Mirt will have a busy couple of days but I'm sure they'll clear it up pretty quick.

Pretty certain the alert trolls will stick around and try to create trouble.

I can't F'ing wait for it to happen.

There are quite a few that are going to get banned & others that will just drift back into the woodwork until they can dust their accounts off for the next Dem bashing session to begin.

that it's going to be that way until after New York. I was hopeful of it subsiding after Super Tuesday II, but they simply doubled down again.

Le sigh.

Their end-days are near! And I cannot wait to put an end to their nastiness and divisive rhetoric! Good riddance troublemakers!

Maybe my threshold for childish temper tantrums is just at an all-time low, and both places seem infested with them lately.

And of course they will call it an unfair PURGE if they don't get a blank check to cause disruption.

Bernie supporters can do the math just as well as we can. They know that Bernie's last chance lies in some outside factor taking Hillary down, so they go completely apeshit over any little thing they imagine could blow up into a scandal.

I don't even feel like making fun of them anymore. It's just too easy, and they are just becoming too pitiable.

I hope the GOP will put up a candidate I can spend a lot of time mocking. I think the odds are in my favor there.

for "echo chamber toxicity"

Even after removal from the echo chamber, the symptoms linger on for a few weeks.

I don't have kids, so that part is actually true.

"ignorant"
"too stupid to understand"
"unworthy of respect"
"a paid shill"
" war lover"
"wall street pawn"
"selfish"
"garbage"


The Berniebros ruined his campaign with their online rhetoric. It will go down in the campaign post-mortems as one of the major reasons he lost

His supporters turned people off.

been showing GD-P on the Home page at all, for which I am very grateful. If a post gets marked up to the "Greatest," it may show up on the Home page, even though it was posted in GD-P. Occasionally, it is a worthwhile OP.

Besides my lone subscription (the AA Forum), I generally tune into the Latest Threads and the HRC Group, along with other Home page threads that look interesting. Because I have trashed GD-P, I don't see any threads from there in the "Latest."

I am much happier. If I wanted to read the crap that too many routinely post in GD-P, I'd go read it at Free Republic or its like, not here.

I think they've passed politics and are going toward religion now - or The Twilight Zone.
