VOAT Containment Megathread of Trash People for Trash People

[etiolate]

I was banned twice for saying Metroid Other M was awful. Banned once for telling Blackace fuck you when he was cheering on my NBA team getting moved out of my city. And perma'd for telling Evilore his policy was ruining the forum and that people laugh at the forum IRL.

[clothedmacuser]

As always folks try to reduce core fundamental atrocity as simple disagreement.

That McCain thread, man. Liberal edge-lords in action.

[FStop7]

I forgot about Blackace.  Why did he get unmodded?

[benjipwns]

PoliGAF is debating what slogan the Democrats should use in the 2018 midterms.

Also, Bernie Sanders might have personally been involved in The Russian Plot™ to steal Hillary's election. The smoking gun being how long he stayed in the race against the will of the American voters.

He quit over NBA-GAF getting slaughtered. Those sports community threads were like the only threads he read anyway.

Is gaf really liberal?  I'm not so sure.

TBH gaf makes being a liberal to not be all that bad if forum is more left than liberal. 

[Nabbis]

Gaf is insane. If you need to brand the political stance of the OT, it would be The Looney Toons Party.

I don't even disagree with plenty of their crap. The problem is that they are just simply awful people who share the same political goals.

[Raist]

i remember raist because you liked no mans sky
 

And I still do. Hyped for the new update. Come at me.

The name does ring a bell.

I just don't remember any specific posts/posting style or avatar associated with you.

edit: I'm of course Atramental. I had an animated cartoon Satan as my avatar for a while until GAF did away with animated gif avatars. 

I 'shopd MGS4 Snake's Eyepatch, stache and a cigarette on a GIF of Drake (from the first Uncharted). When they banned GIF avatars, I couldn't be arsed to find another one

There was a recent poll among Democrat voters and like a majority said they felt the DNC didn''t stand for anything other than "opposing trump" and a lot of their base is angry at their lack of putting forward any policy.. this was exacerbated when they sent out an email to donors asking them what the slogan should be (a few of them basically are 'WE AREN'T TRUMP') and they received lots of negative feedback and backlash from donors.. because they feel that the Democrats need more than just slogans and empty words to win in 2018, at least according to this article I read

of course PoliGAF is running with it and cheering it on... what a bunch of sycophantic morons

they all hate left-wingers though and any actual progressive thoughts or policies, they run out people on the left that don't 100% identify with and/or cheer for the DNC. Many of them will bash people who want a single-payer healthcare system, for instance.

they are CORPORATE SHILL MODERATE DARLINGS

They're just opposed to people who refuse to compromise and waste their valuable time with naive and unobtainable politics. Especially ones that aren't wanted by people in the real world.

Now, if you'll excuse us, this latest Trump statementspeechtweet shows the time has long past for us to march on the White House and violently overthrow the government to install Her.

Hmm I wouldn't call them moderates tho. They seem so extreme and remind me of the leftists I know who justify calling charity services "band-aids" because they don't go at the heart of American capitalism.

You people give the average gaffer too much credit.  They have nothing that they could call an ideology.  They will complain about big business in one thread and tongue Sony's asshole in the next thread.  They talk about boycotting "problematic" media but then buy it and watch it/play it anyway, usually on day one.  They supposedly hate rape but feel the need to have a discussion about the merits of pedophilia.

It's better to think of them on the same level as the shit you scrape off a shoe, not a group of people with an ideology that should be taken seriously.

Unlike us renaissance men

[benjipwns]

Most of political posturing GAF adjusts their views to fit the brand.

As such, trying to fit their shifting positions with an ideological, philosophical or similar label (leftist, liberal, reactionary conservatives) is probably more about when you snapshot their views and label them in contrast to your own.

About the only consistency you'd get from a significantly sized poster sample is being pro-lgbt and loudly proclaiming your role as an ally with agreeable popular black people.

[benjipwns]

Believing climate change will literally destroy the planet and/or make it unlivable within our lifetimes runs about third. Warms the heart to remember how Amir0x helpfully proclaimed Evilore a bold leader for taking an anti-end-of-the-planet stance on behalf of the entire forum. (Though Evilore's hard schedule made it too tough for him to respond to the posters asking what he was actually doing on that front or even just with the forum hosting.)

Poligaf is more of a Democrat fan forum than anything else. Ideology isn't important, their team winning is. All but like 2 of them could be ShareBlue writers and I wouldn't bat an eye. kirblar is the worst poster of the bunch, and it's probably not even close.

The worst part is they recruit more and more or they get radicalized.  We now have RinsFury and Rinjaz who think it's the norm to be paranoid of the oncoming detainment centers.  Or you have previously non-political people like Slayven just doing it to fit in and have "friends."

The worst part is me being dumb enough to not foresee that they would literally swap gears overnight rather than it actually taking until Trump actually did something worth getting up in arms about. That they would hesitate about the exact paranoia they had been mocking months earlier.

At least Obama was black and Muslim I told myself.

[benjipwns]

Really, the sign for me should have been when I realized I was arguing with the same exact people about Trump's "LITERAL treason" only the difference between the two threads were that the first one was before the election when he suggested it might be rigged in Hillary's favor, and the second one was after the election when we knew Russia/Sanders, Gamergate and Obama teamed up to defeat Hillary again.

You really trying to downplay this benjipwns?

Or is just some more sly-type trolling or sarcasm?

spoiler (click to show/hide)

Frankly, because with any grasp of republics of the past and how they died, it's hard not to read this as treasonous. Quite possibly treasonous to the point that someone actually stands up and does something about it, as opposed to, you know, the relatively "minor" acts of sedition he's been guilty of up to this point.

Refusal to accept the democratic process is contrary to the idea of democracy itself. If his followers act on that, and he is judged as having colluded with them (as is becoming increasingly likely) or providing support, he exposes himself to a federal death sentence.

Sadly, even if he was put to death for treason, the scars on our republic would be unavoidable. As soon as he opts out of accepting the results of a democratic election and isn't immediately denounced and shunned entirely by society as a whole, the damage has been done.

If you would have to take a guess how clueless Trump is about healthcare..

I'll cut him some slack. Health care is complicated stuff.

Donald Trump and his family have likely never had health insurance. When you're that rich you don't need it.

i mean, sure, you could pay out of pocket (even i mostly do when i can) but come on, his companies and NBC alone would have taken out insurance on/for him, not to mention his fucking kids

[benjipwns]

plus, since he's the most healthy human to ever be evaluated by doctors, the best, human, health AND doctors, according to his campaign, him being in the company insurance pool would do wonders for everyone else

Clothedmacuser just shot himself in the foot.

I don't know how much the rest of you know about GAF culture (I'm an expert), but ban baiting and virtue signaling are huge parts of it. It's not like it is on Bore where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you don't kiss Tyler Malka's pasty ass on GAF, you bring multiple bans on yourself, and the only way to get rid of those bans is repentance.
