Time to move on

daydream**believer — Mon, 16 Dec 2013 03:05:16 GMT

Every election time sees the Lib and Lab supporter on here having a go at eachother, but never before, on CS or the past CW board, have i seen it carry on and on and on after the election is over.

Its ridiculous.

Its done. Its over.

Let it go until the next election.

Funny that it is the Liberal supporters who have these views. It was OK was it when the LNP supporters were attacking the last Labor Govt non stop with the blog c&P and personal attacks?

Now the LNP Govt is in the spotlight, LNP supporters don't want any negative political discussion.

Perhaps it is due to Tony Abbott and his negative and aggressive campaign before the last election.. he set the bar?

am, all that went on in the countdown to the election. As it does every other time and election is on.

In the past, the election ends and then the political threads slowly dwindle away until the next election.

Not so this time

ohh and i didnt mention negative discussion. Move on from ALL political discussion. Lib, Lab, all of it.

Or at least keep it to one thread.

But you know what, i expect there will be many who agree with me but will be to scared to speak out due to the attacks that will come.

So ive said my piece and leave you to it.

Feel free to take over this post as so many other threads get taken over now by politics.

lol.. sorry... didn't see this when I made mine...

I made my political thread because I wanted an "I told you so" moment... totally cheap and selfish. But I can admit that.

Your thread is OK Cat because it's a Lib/Coalition thread.

Pre election you were all enjoying the copy/paste, the cartoons, the denegrating comments about our first female Prime Minister, but now it's the Coalitions turn you want to hide the truth about the horror of the Abbott/Hockey/Turnbull/Pyne/Bishop mess.

The other day you posted that you were happy with the new Goverment and when I asked why you didn't answer? May I ask why?

Re: Time to move on

daydream**believer — Mon, 16 Dec 2013 03:50:50 GMT

wrong freddie.

I didnt enjoy it pre election either and only very very rarely posted on the political threads.

As for those who mocked the PM, i found those distasteful. I think it is disrespectful to mock any PM on a personal level

You can ask all you like but i chose not to bother to give you an answer. What would be the point?

Exactly, there were plenty of personal attacks on JG simply because she was a female, foul cartoons etc, they weren't even political jibes, and not one objection from anyone from the party (LNP) the poster of this stuff belonged too. Keeping quiet if you are disgusted with this behaviour doesn't achieve anything.

Apart from that.. no one poster can demand there be no political discussion.

Another poster (LNP supporter) yesterday posted they didn't want any negative political discussion and no c&P's ( i.e.showing facts the LNP have broken election promises in this case).

They have no objection to nw many C&P though.. funny that.

I didn't say you specifically DDB, the coalition supporters along with Pickering and Ackermans mate enjoyed the copy/paste, at least the political threads now are asking for discussion.

daydream**believer — Mon, 16 Dec 2013 03:57:05 GMT

Anyway, as i said, ive said my piece and that is all.

I only come on CS a couple of times a day now anyway.

Will leave you to it

The point would be to explain yourself, I'm genuinely curious. You are asking people not to talk about things that matter to them.
