VOAT Containment Megathread of Trash People for Trash People

[Boogie]

A "good" web forum can't exist without careful moderation, but society will be fine without police. Yeah, sure.

2009-Boogie would be futilely tilting at the windmills in that thread, but nothing I could write would sum things up better than that.  Bravo, sir.

[Joe Molotov]

'Other forum"? What is this.

Othering in 2017 

Sorry, I meant Forumx.

[benjipwns]

Now all of the sudden GAF regulars decide they want to start lopping off parts of the state because of its violence.

And they're starting with local police forces?

[benjipwns]

"Rapid response justice teams"? Sounds like vigilantes to me. How are these people going to react when someone gets raped or murdered?

You need police, since we got people there who are hurting others and there needs a power that finds them and gets them away from society and hands them over to an institution that either locks them op or makes sure they won't do it again.

So...like Yum! Brands? or what i don't understand

[El Babua]

New thread title means I can link to the coli without feeling guilty.

[etiolate]

never feel guilty about coli links

[benjipwns]

oh god almost immediately after the news of the Syria airstrike:

So hopefully it never goes this far, but if a war erupts and someone were to attempt to attack America, where would they hit first? Or would they even target the US and just focus on the bases outside the US?

i was literally on earth earlier today, stay safe

[benjipwns]

Hillary also wouldn't be at a fucking resort and would be pouring over reports

[benjipwns]

GET HIM OUT OF THAT WHITE HOUSE OH GOD!!! I couldn't be more scared right now.

on the other hand:

We won't really know the ramifications for this until the dust settles a bit.

If there are few casualties, little to no reaction from Russia, and it results in Assad being ousted, then it could end up looking favorable for him. He'll be praised for thinking quickly and taking decisive action - and Trump will bring it up constantly.

On the other hand, if any number of things end up being fucked and it turns out this hasty decision was made in poor judgement, then yea....

Considering his standing, he may have made a safe decision, but I don't think we'll really know for a few days.

Lime has been banned? 

[FStop7]

Am I fucked up for thinking that out of all of the things Trump's done this is the least offensive?  It was probably the most appropriate response.

The shame is that it comes so soon after that idiotic air strike in Mosul that killed hundreds.

[zomgee]

It seems a little fast and the rhetoric at the UN was a little much, but yeah I can't shake the idea that even Hildawg would have done something.

[Great Rumbler]

TPM had a pretty good take on this, which is basically that Trump went from "I don't really care about Syria, we shouldn't be involved anyway" to lobbing missiles at Syrian targets over the course of a couple of days because he saw on TV that Assad did a bad thing. Maybe he stumbled onto the "right" option this time, but it would be for all the wrong reasons. So, if you're looking for positive news from this situation, I'd advice you not to.

[benjipwns]

This might actually start another world war. This is incredibly serious, this egomaniac is not only responsible for the deaths caused as a result of these strikes but also the immense repercussions of them. I don't think the US is ready for another war.


For all of you in Syria stay strong and stay safe. For all you Americans, demand that your leader gets Congrwssional approval before starting a war! This buffoon can't just order strikes whenever he feels like it, and that should be made crystal clear!

Starting to understand how someone felt in the summer of 1914, or when the reichstag burned.

We live in interesting times. You don't want to live in interesting times.

I'm getting kinda frightened seeing something like this in real-time.

What is sex to you?

How soon before you have it with someone? Is it significant to you? Do you think it's wrong to sleep with someone you like but don't know if you're going to in a relationship? Most of this could probably be answered with "depends on the situation."

For me, I don't think much of it. I've had it with friends and have no intention of being in a relationship. One girl liked me and I made it clear that I don't want a relationship but still had sex with her. That relationship is kind of fucked up right now though. I've had sex with a neighbor who I'm still good with.

Right now I like this girl that I've known and is related to one is my relatives. I want to pursue a physical relationship with her but I'm feeling like this might not be good. I could see myself in a relationship with her but I've never been in one and not sure I want to.

Fuck Trump and warmongers in general, but he's not doing anything Hilldawg (yassqueen) wouldn't have done.

[Great Rumbler]

Most, if not all, of those strikes in Syria were on ISIS targets, though, I would imagine.

[benjipwns]

I'm pretending the Pakistan number is actually a guy who bent over too far in a helicopter and his sidearms fell out and he tried to grab them and dropped his rifle but they couldn't go back and get them.

[stufte]

True, but it's still the US bombing the shit out of a sovereign state, and sometimes missing or misjudging their intended target and killing civilians.

[Great Rumbler]

Not trying to argue whether Obama was right and Trump is wrong or whatever, but this is clearly a shift from where things were before. Obama could at least credibly argue that the bombings were against a rogue terrorist "state" and not intended to be an attack against Assad or Russia. Trump directly attacked a military base of the Assad regime, there's almost certainly going to be some kind of fallout from that. Right now there's just no way to know exactly what that's going to be.

fair enough. I guess I'm just not shocked by this move is all.

[Great Rumbler]

I'm not necessarily surprised either since this is perfectly in line with Bannon's dream of escalating things in the Middle East and Trump probably views this all as a win/win for him [punish a bad guy + shift the news cycle away from White House messes]. But I don't really see Obama or even Hillary going to airstrikes as essentially the first response, maybe trying to put some kind of pressure on Assad through the UN or Russia first.

But if we all end up dead before the end of the year because of WW3, I guess it doesn't really matter.

This is honestly a bi-partisan problem....Though I do think, from what I have read and Rumbler just spoke about, this is a diversion of Obama policy.

Still to your point, it has a simple solution that can prevent this problem every time, which is to just shut up until you bother investigating whether your gut reaction has merit. 

But that is part of the problem with GAF's years of culling, you inadvertently push out the voices that would naturally challenge those dumb hot takes.

The verb you're looking for is 'suspects'. Though it is very probable that they are.

[Propagandhim]

I think the first step in artificial intelligence automating human reaction would be to scour and learn the heuristics involved in GAF threads after a Muslim terrorist attack in Europe.  It's the same patterns and rhythms every time.

Bannon has little to say right now regarding military actions. The ball is probably more in the side of the military convincing Trump and Trump viewing, as you say, as a way to shift the focus on the Russia probe. As over the top the "50 missiles to destroy an airfield" sounds, it is clear it was mostly planned.
