A question for you WTFRs

As I recall, it is against the rules at WTF to make personal attacks against a member.

I'd ask the question over there, but as you know, I made a personal attack against a member - I called Jacob Jingoism Smith "Jacob Jingoism Smith", and was informed that I had attacked him personally by "using his real name".......

Obviously some real brainiacs over there, but anyway...


If it's against the rules to personally attack someone, and it's not true that leftwing nutjobs (ie, the majority of the idiots that gather there) aren't given a pass while those who aren't leftwing nutjobs don't get a pass...


why is Copper being attacked personally just because he said he likes Trump?


Which one of you WTFRS has the balls to answer me?

Or we could leave WTF business on WTF, and read TNCR threads here.
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.

I think we all understand the political preferences. I don't expect my preferences to be well received there.

That's fine.

Every now and then I'll post something there. As I said there, I think in general Mr. Trump is doing a good job, good enough that I thought it was worth mentioning there.

I know most there really, really don't want to hear that so I won't make a habit of it.

It was nice of Mr. Evans to give some recognition, I know he enjoys his position.

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy

Never!

At least not always.

Just a general observation...If you thought there were some guys on this board who weren't gung-ho for Obama, the level of vitriol, nastiness and just blind hate for Trump by a group of supposedly educated people on WTF is astounding. Yet, they aren't unique. I suspect most of their friends feel the same way.

I can understand disliking the man or his policies, but the outright lies are amazing...Trump is telling Boy Scouts how to organize orgies. Trump is dismantling Medicare. If any of them believed in God, they would swear Trump is the Anti-Christ.

Yes, this seems to be common with the anti-Trump crowd, not just wtf.

Maybe the people who feel this strongly have had very insular lives. They don't seem to be able to believe that anyone could think differently from them or have different values.

It's fun to call politicians names. But you are correct about the level of vitriol and hate. That nastiness is much worse than any of the imaginary stuff they blame on Mr. Trump.

As far as I can tell, the folks on WTF actually like Copper and even made him "decorator of the month" a while back. It's goofy but it is what is is.

I'm not king but from what I can tell everyone hopes he will contribute regularly. I know I do, even though his politics are 180 out from 'most everyone else.

Wag more

I think everyone knows where they are more comfortable.

And where they can go when they are in the mood for something different.

That level of disdain, really dehumanization, of Trump, is nothing more or less than pop culture.
As a good person, I implore you to do as I, a good person, do. Be good. Do NOT be bad. If you see bad, end bad. End it in yourself, and end it in others. By any means necessary, the good must conquer the bad. Good people know this. Do you know this? Are you good?

You may be right. In many circles, it is the "in" thing to do.
