You should check out the politics forum.

Yes - but I've noticed that decline in discourse everywhere in our society. We're becoming increasingly polarized. The last election results show this more than ever - Allegheny County is now an island of blue in a sea of red in Western Pennsylvania. Even WV is going increasingly red. We're in the midst of vast social shifts..

There has been extensive social shifts on American society. Not gonna deny that.


But this subforum in particular has ESPECIALLY become a cesspool of partisan bickering, when compared to the other non-political subforums here. It just never ends.

Are you pretending you don't also add to that environment? The level of hypocrisy is mind boggling. The Leftish posters here pretend their posts aren't political and only scream if they see a dissenting opinion. It's like Invasion of the Body Snatchers and you all scream and point at those who don't conform to your groomed opinions.

You don't even want to reflect on it, you just keep digging in.



Some of us aren't even in a party. He's right. It never ends... Even if he engaged in it - I doubt anyone here hasn't at some point. Just browse another city forum here and compare the threads.



Hell, this is a development thread and now this crap here too.

You can thank post 391 for that. Those that complain are often responsible for it.

And no, you can't thank one post for this. The well was already poisoned.

Yes, you are right. But it’s gotten to the point of complete ridiculousness.
