I feel indispensable.
Oh, but you are.
Wait… 
That don’t seem right.
I agree about the value of having perspectives from many backgrounds, different political beliefs, and different economic strata.
My disappointment with @SuntanLotion is her failing to heed constructive suggestions to better evaluate her sources and stop posting complete bullshit. If I wanted to read complete bullshit I’d read the National Enquirer or the comments section on the Fox News website.
217 posts were split to a new topic: For bitching about language pedantry, other posters’ language, and language in general
Back to the actual function of this thread …
This perfectly reasonable thread appeared overnight:
A bunch of sensible posts and posters ensued.
Into which Kedikat shows up replaying the greatest hits tape of JAQ-offing BS ever written about COVID, vaccines, and the “controversial” efficacy of ivermectin.
Fucking moron slime. Doesn’t quite rise to the level of trolling, in that I think he’s sincerely stupid rather than maliciously stupid. But if he keeps JAQing right along the line, my opinion will change, and not for the better.
Kedicat’s presence here seems to only fulfill the need of every village to have its designated idiot.
I disagree. Those are very carefully constructed posts, chock full of deniable implications (“I didn’t say that”) apparently designed to derail the discussion into the direction that poster wanted it to go. I’m only surprised that they let it go so relatively quickly.
Their post was the second response to the OP, and the first response has no content. They didn’t just wander into an existing discussion, they made a beeline for it.
In case anyone forgot or didn’t notice, Kedikat was also a pro-Russia troll in the “Russia invades Ukraine” thread. In that thread, just like in this one, he denied trolling and claimed he was just citing objective facts and “never said” the things he was accused of saying. He was eventually thread-banned, and good riddance. I don’t know what his game is but he’s either a fucking moron.or a troll interested in stirring up shit. Or as the favourite saying around here goes, “why not both?”.
If he is a Russian agent, it may be part of the cyberwar. If enough Americans is convinced that Ivermectin is effective against Covid-19, it will cost you both lives and money. Bad for USA, good for Russia.
Please flag it, he is a borderline poster at best and deliberate misinformation are grounds for warning or banning. My bet is he is not stupid, but is indeed trolling.
I’ll remind the The Quarantine Zone mods who this guy is.
I forgot, I intended to thank you for this.
Yes, i hadn’t noticed this. And we have stronger rules about posting misinformation in the quarantine zone than elsewhere. I’ll go take a look in a minute.
I just flagged several of his posts. Looks like his typical trolling to me.
Dr. Strangelove delivers a pretty sly “whataboutism” in there too.
How dare you thank someone! I am in high dugeon now, humpf!
Did not know.
I now semi-regret posting my beef about him here; he deserves to star in the the omnibus troll thread instead. This is the thread for folks who deserve the benefit of the doubt. By putting him here I’ve perfumed his pig. Oops on me.
Oops. I did not recognize the history.
With luck we can arrange for him to put on a final spectacular performance on the way to the cornfield.
At least I did something right with my post.
Now let’s see who else we can snipe at. …
Are you? That sounds like a fantasy RPG-themed pot shop which as I’m typing that would probably be a really fun place.
I’m going to start a thread about this, but earlier today, some “environmentalists” spray-painted Stonehenge in broad daylight. Idiots.
There are many legitimate environmental concerns but assholes like this make all environmentalism look like lunacy and really hurt the effort to protect the environment.
I honestly, truly think these people don’t actually give a shit about the environment. They are just attention-seeking misanthropes.
I was debating resurrecting the former thread for them myself. There were people in the previous thread who think that any publicity is good publicity. I say, you’d be okay with them doing literally anything? What’s the exact point between defacing a millienial old cultural work of art and murder where you’d draw the line? Would you stop at burning down people’s homes as long as no one is killed? Small price to pay to get people to talk about stopping oil! Would randomly punching people in the name of environmentalism also be laudable since “now we are talking about oil?”
