Okay, I’ve been watching this three-thread-slugfest for several days now. It really is demoralizing listening to some of you kids rant. I’m putting my foot down. Here are some guidelines that you should follow if you ever want to post anything related to politics or economics.

1) For the love of God...stop the generalizations. No stereotyping (lib/con), no shitty comparisons (Hitler/Saddam), no bad analogies, and no playing the “ur ignorant� card (because chances are “ur� a dumbass too).

2) If you DO NOT have reasonable knowledge about the subject, DO NOT play “connect the dots.� Leaps in logic are the foundations of bad judgement and poor decision making. They are very dangerous. In other words, if you can’t immediately support you ideas with examples, facts, legitimate statistics, or history, then please keep your mouth closed. Your doing a disservice to yourself as well as others. Critically thinking about an issue is great, but save your judgement until you become knowledgeable.

3) I HAVE SAID THIS 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 TIMES! THE U.S. IS NOT IN A GOD DAMN ECONOMIC RESECTION!!!! GROWTH HAS JUST SLOWED!! THERE IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE!!!

4) If you are going to criticize, please be constructive. It simple and juvenile to say “he fucked it up,� or “you are such a fucking hypocrite.� Try to put some creative thought behind your reasoning and criticism. In the real world, people appreciate suggestions and innovations rather than complaining. People will be more likely to listen to you.

5) Try to keep name calling to a minimum. Remember, it makes you look like and idiot too.

6) Eat your vegetables.

Thats all for now. I have to get some sleep. Peace out.

good points but, no thanks. Non-ski gabber should not be taken seriously. I know its fun to come on here and express your opinions from time to time but, does it really matter? People come on here to spit bullshit and fuck around this isn't a formal debate. We can't all "elevate" ourselves to your standards. Theres 10 year old park rats on here who can barely spell.

sounds good. growth has slowed vastly... when things aren't growing at the rate of inflation (such as my dads government paid teacher salary) there is a problem.

Its true that a lot of NS users do not know how to argue. They insult someone and never give facs to support their arguement.
The only problem is that we cant find a solution to stop insult post whoring.

It'd be nice if everyone could read and memorize all of those before they ever posted again, too.

Actually, I just think we shouldbe able to blacklist people who aren't allowed to post in a thread when we make it. That'd make things a whole lot easier (read: result in less mind-agonizing stupidity).

"Most guys know that women dig guys with money. Would Donald Trump be fucking models if he wasn't rich? That question is rhetorical. Now I don't even believe this is wrong, I think it is just nature. But I also think women who are this way (and it is almost all of you) should be honest and admit that they are basically whores, and stop saying bad things about the so-called "actual whores" who are just trying to earn an honest living."

I like what you're saying.

People should definitely put some serious thought into posts.

I mean of course there's the dumb posts that's everybody just having a good time, but there absolutely for sure should be topics that are quality discussion.

It's what will clean up the forums of this site!

Very well, Mr. McCarthy.

I wouldn't be opposed to that sort of action.

You can talk about a subject all you want. That doesn’t bother me. What bother me are the clueless people that are judgmental dicks. It's a poison.



Oh yeah sniper_6, I wrote that at about 12:30 in the morning. I was hella tired. You can start critiquing my spelling when you stop using IM speak “u� ass. By the way, “wern't� is not a word. So, as they say down my way...Fuck Off.
