> [@Pedro](#): > > No I’m not. Just because I’m not religious doesn’t mean I want to associate politically with you morons. Wow, leapt from “are you religious”? to “politics” in one go. Failure to track a conversation is a sign of dementia, perhaps you should get a check up. And for all your protestations you keep coming back here… ---

> [@Broomstick](#): > > And for all your protestations you keep coming back here… Coming back where, to this thread? Of course. It’s extremely rare for me to get political on this board because the conversation is so poor and there is nothing here besides the usual liberal slurs, it’s just that this guy I admire got brutally murdered hosting a college debate and I thought I should say something about the assholes humble-cheering while preaching empathy. So yes I will keep coming back to the thread. ---

There used to be/is? a rule on this board about talking about blocking people (at least calling out that you blocked a specific person), but I think I can give general instructions on it. Click the name at the top of the post, then again click the name on their user pop up, and then where it says normal on the top right, turn that to ignored. You will see that other people replied to them, but you won’t see the actual quoted content of the post. ---

LOL. I’m such a troll but I haven’t been banned yet but still everyone ran away with their tail between their legs except Broomstick and a few others. OK. I’m amused. ---

> [@Crane](#): > > Your turn select one. I think this Charlie Kirk quote has made the rounds being presented as him being into the deaths of children: “I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights.” ---

Anyone here with political views to the right of left-wing extremist gets called every liberal word salad slur and if that doesn’t work to intimidate them or shut them up your only solution is to run away and hope they get banned. Wrongthink is a scary thing. Seems like this place needs more Charlie Kirk and less dumbass. ---

Try not throwing a tantrum and running away next time because you got childishly frustrated that I wouldn’t immediately concede to the brilliance you concocted in your own mind.
