Something I have noticed about political posts/threads

and I could be wrong and guilty of the same

 

trying not to be biased here but 🙂

 

left leaning tend to decipher information in the news and give personal thoughts along with links

 

right leaning tend not to decipher but copy and paste endless articles without much personal input views

 

not trying to start an argument here but has anyone else noticed this?

nevy, oh well, some do like to chat about politics and as you pointed out it is a chat board. I  see it a little different than you but that is OK, doesn't mean I am going to put you down and I would still participate on a thread started by you if it interested me. Woman Happy 


It's nevyn. And that's just another belittling tactic. 

 


seriously it isn't at all,  nevynreally. apologies that my laziness in typing has been taken as a belittling tactic.


No, you meant it, you always do.


sigh, i really thought this was a genuine chat.....sucked in to me...never mind was getting bored anyway. Woman Indifferent


It was. You weren't a part of it because, frankly, your a troll. A moron, you post only to denigrate others who don't think the way you do, and, I have to say, they would be, for the most part, cavemen.


 

Ok I have given you kudos for that excellent post above... Sadly it wont last as you can hear the usuals clicking the report button over and over on your postand the mods chastise you for telling the truth...

To a degree you're right but in the previous government we had a few independents who were attacked ferociously for "selling out" by siding with Gillard instead of Abbott.  They gave considerable thought before making their decisions and expressed their reasons for doing so but that didn't stop the vicious attacks on their character.  They did what they thought was best for the country and their electorate.  It's a shame there are not more like them. 

 

Is the climate change comment about the carbon price/tax?  the tax was on the companies that have abused it for years, they just passed it and more on to the consumers.


Sorry freaky, maybe tomorrow? Before the trolls wake up LOL. Really over it tonight.

I think too many posters - on both sides - mistake name-calling for rational debate.


 Nevyn posted (not directed at me) A moron, you post only to denigrate others who don't think the way you do, and, I have to say, they would be, for the most part, cavemen.

 

Rational debate?


 

Me I would say that they are simply stating the truth and facts about the poster.... I would call it very rational and very factual...but then I will leave the anser up to the poster as I am only offering my opinion on it.......

Dont panic, Nevyn, I did say posters on BOTH sides. If I spot anyone here calling you a moron or a cavemen I'llbe sure to comment on  it.


You know, I get you think you're funny. It's sad, not just you, but the others too. You just don't get it was a good convo.

And if you ever catch me calling another poster  a moron or a caveman, I hope you will do the same thing for me.

Did you read the posts in this thread? I've asked you that before. Much easier to be abusive, like the posts I responded to, rather than post to the topic. Great disappointment to me She-el. I thought you had more class than that.

The problem with that, disregarding the typos, is that nothing was mentioned about the topic that was the discussion.Just putdowns. Very disappointing. and now double. Do neither of you have something to actually contribute to the conversation in this thread?

what the heck is left and right and is there a middle?

Do you have to be one or the other?

Does it really prove how you post?

Can someone tell me what I am?....careful there, you could get in trouble 😄 *wink wink*
