Tay selling 10 millie, Kanye's stumping for Trump and doing his worst Sisqo impression. Ye was supposed to learn how to battle from Jay, not Nas.

Are there actual points to these topics? All they do is provide a place for GAFers to pose about what they'd do if they got an award from the terrible president. We get it. Trump is popular to hate on GAF, and it may be right to hate him. Do we have to waste time on circle-jerking masturbatory fantasies while we're at it?

I watched a short clip of that Megyn Kelly interview with Putin and she was asking him about all these names and Jared Kushner and shit that junkies in PoliGAF make charts connecting and stuff and he was all like "I'm President of this huge fucking country, best Russia, I got all this shit to do, all these meetings, people to poison, fake photo ops to stage, why would I have time for your silly gossip? If it's important, my ministers will bring it to me."

And I was like heh...he's kinda got a point. We have this whole messed up approach that's so dominantly theatre and American centric to the ignorance of everything else.

It's like when people talk about the stock market "being up for the day based on this report" and like that's not even how the DJIA works.

I'm pretty sure that's Russian plants creating "fake posts" to change the narrative.

You see, the top "best" moderated forum on the internet fosters a community that doesn't post like that.

People telling this guy he was in the wrong. I remember back in junior high flag football I called a guy a bitch in practice, the coach heard it, and I was running laps for the entire rest of practice. There was like an hour left, so that was considerably more than 3 miles.

These kids got off super easy.

The "omg were you trying to kill them??!!?!" replies are amazing. 3miles in 25min is roughly twice the average walking speed :lol

The "hot take" is dumb. It's them wanting to kick whitey instead of actually deploring the person doing the crime. Like, I get where the sentiment comes from, but that kneejerk reaction makes you dumb as fuck and makes me disregard anything you have to add anywhere.

Seriously, there's no excusing that sort of shit. Especially #6 which knee-jerks because "lol white name, amirite?" I'd say the same on reddit's "lol black people" shit.

To put it another way: It's like reddit's looking for the Boston Marathon Suspect(s) and internet mobbing folks that had nothing to do with the terrorism because "lol Arabs amirite?" Let the police do their shit and keep your knee-jerk stupidity to yourself.

There's a modbot 2 now.  :doge

And a ModBot 3. They were created shortly after the giveaway featured moved to open beta. Being regular accounts, they have to abide by GAF's cooldown periods, so if ModBot is in the middle of waiting, the action is passed on to ModBot 2, which then passes it on to ModBot 3 if necessary.

Edit: And there are a further three accounts that were created specifically for the busy E3 period.

I was watching Ice Cube on Real Time, and boy did Bill come off as far more of a cunt there than he did actually making the house nicca joke. He was being a straight up petulant bitch and trying to completely dismiss/ignore/breeze over the reasons why two black people were telling him why his joke was offensive to black people. I don't know why he bothered to have them on to talk about it if he wasn't even going to listen to what they had to say.

This segment?



Yeah, he definitely seemed like he was trying to breeze right past it, although he did say that he apologized and went over it already earlier on in the show(?).  I dunno since I haven't watched it.

Edit: OK, he did:


Maher got called out for basically being kind of a hypocrite about it in this segment.  He says he's not there to make excuses...but then makes excuses. :lol  ::)  He says it's just because he's a comedian reacting.

Come on, Bill.  Just say you fucked up and move on.

in a desperate attempt to get Fox New's audience, you had CNN doing more and more CNN Crossfire panel bullshit where they have "both sides" for fucking everything.
A show that was on CNN for 23 years before it first got cancelled. A show that was a TV version of a radio show Pat Buchanan and Tom Braden already had hosted for five years. A radio show that was a version of all sorts of "both sides" debate shows that literally dominated political discussion programming (in part due to FCC regulation) for fifty some years.

The McLaughlin Group aired for 34 years. Firing Line aired for 33 years. Nearly every major political commentator of the last forty years cut their teeth through appearing on those two shows. This type of show that he thinks suddenly got invented in the last few years is the entire reason for George Will's continued existence other than writing harsh columns about people wearing denim.

This happened 30 years before Hillary Clinton lost a second Presidential bid:

I agree, we need to move beyond the outdated (and foreign concept of the) secret ballot to a more progressive system like in rising powers:
Quote
Only one candidate appears on the ballot. Elections are ostensibly conducted by secret ballot, and a voter may cross off the candidate's name to vote against him/her, but must do so by crossing out the name in a special booth.
It's time that that voters had to face repercussions for their votes individually rather than hiding behind the millions of other voters votes.

edit: Actually, the next line is that post is funnier:
Quote
I'm a straight (mostly) rural white man with an income that puts me in the lower quartile of income in the poorest state in the Union, which is also quite conservative. And yet somehow racism didn't cast its spell over such a poor defenseless worker like me and I didn't vote for Trump!
For some reason reminds me of a thread a week or so back which was filled with posts of "obvious but more studies are a good thing" and "great to have hard data to use in arguments" when someone had taken a poll and just made a graph out of it for a blog post. Not even a correlation run on the two* variables.

*Of which one was binary and the other was ordinal.

This dipshit only knows about Crossfire because Jon Stewart was a guest on it once and "killed" the show (they brought it back years later).  That's the extent of his knowledge on it.

Much like the other dumbfuck who confused Kansas and Kentucky, PoliGAF is a complete and utter joke.

Seems like a reasonable response from a well adjusted person.

Basically, Jon Stewart told a generation of college students that debate shows were bad.

Now he gets to sit at home and watch people unable to speak with each other make an ass out of the whole nation.

I remember grap3fruitman.

He is another one of GAF's emotionally unstable perma-virgins.
yeah, I was dumb enough to try and help that dude at one point. I think the first "official" girl-age thread was 2009, so 8 years ago. Grap3 was in his early 20s at that point.

Instead of building up his social skills and attempting to have normal interactions with other human beings, he's wallowed in his loneliness for 8 years and is now having elaborate murder fantasies involving a baseball bat.

The funny thing about the Jon Stewart episode is that whenever I see it on something it usually cuts off the part where he's trying to make the point that neither "side" believes the argument they're making so it's all just jousting on air and that's the bad thing; for the part where he argues with Tucker Carlson over being a comedian vs. being a pundit and Stewart says he's hurting America.

When Pat Buchanan was on one of these shows and arguing a position, you rarely doubted it was Pat's actual position other than he was just giving the Republican the benefit of the doubt. The people ("Republican/Democratic strategist") they dredge up to fill the segments for the 24/7 cycle, you know it's otherwise because two months ago you saw them trashing Trump on some issue in favor of Cruz or whatever.

It's like Michael Savage vs. Sean Hannity (since they had a fight a few years back when their parent company swapped them on radio stations), Savage prefers the Republicans because they align with him and he hates Democrats more, but that wouldn't stop Savage from attacking Republicans who he thinks are terrible. Sean Hannity immediately will defend the GOP line and call it "true conservatism" or whatever. The best example of this actually being when Johm McCain won the nomination. Savage could never support him because McCain is semi-sane on immigration, so he didn't and mostly just said Obama was worse but McCain would be terrible too because they'd both let brown people invade. Hannity who would trash McCain constantly for being a RINO immediately shifted gears into war hero, REAGAN FOOTSOLDIER, etc. and then after election day immediately switched back to bashing McCain ever since.

Of course, this entire thing operates under the premise that Hannity getting three million viewers a night (half of which are Media Matters interns) is somehow linking up with Gamergate and destroying truth in this country which allowed Trump to win.

There's so many faults in the underlying assumptions to the argument that we might as well already call it Otisburg.

I'm so glad I didn't go down that path because knowing myself I could've easily gone off the deep end.  :doge

Then again, I can't really chalk up my social success to pure force of will. My mental health is probably a lot better than Grap3's, KevinCow's, Kinggi's, etc.

Also, I think I have a rather healthy sense of humor about myself and my shortcomings. :doge

all my fantasies involve baseball bats. I want that tactile feeling of someone hurting as much as I do.

It's been a long time : another Charlie Hebdo thread

"Only in it for ratings !" would be hilarious if not more tone deaf than gaffers believe the cartoons are.

On a forum where people are constantly tripped up by the most head-bashingly obvious of satirical posts it's not a surprise that Charlie Hedbo is light years beyond the average gaffer's comprehension.

I think my favorite posts are "I don't understand what it's trying to say" because:
1. This proves political/social commentary cartoons DO NEED ENDLESS LABELS.
2. It's not in American English in the first place.
