I'm upset about the soapboxing too, but is it really going to change any time soon? There are always going to be those people saying outrageous things for it's own sake and there are always going to be people who will respond to that. What Taya is saying is "why the sudden outrage to something that isn't new in the slightest?" |

You all have something to say or some disingenuous bullstuff like this. Every thread becomes a soapbox platform for your bickering and it's frankly getting old, especially because everyone arguing is to goddamn stupid to reach a reasonable conclusion. --- End quote --- Hard to avoid given that the thread started out that way almost immediately with barely a foot out the door. I'm not against what you're saying, my frequency posting on this forum has reduced because of threads just being your general poo-slinging contest. I didn't normalize this and I certainly don't want it this way all the time. I won't deny being a part of the problem sometimes, its really hard to help myself when someone is already up front right now trying to demonize the left and there's another one trying to demonize the right. If I had a lever that removed the soapboxing, you bet your ass I would love to throw it. Not trying to make you angry but thats honestly outside of my control. |
