I wasn't calling gay people degenerate and the only thing that I see adding up is your abuse of mod status. I was unfairly banned. WITCH HUNT!
If I am only having fun and memeing about Trump in the World News threads, how is that a problem? This is NFOHump, not /r/politics or ResetEra.

Exactly. And you‘re still doing it.
edit: Even in this last post. Using this fucked up shiposting trumpian rethoric.
Why should anyone assume that you're calling him "degenerate" because he has a twitter account for his dog. How is that "degenerate"? Or rather thats just another one of you smearing someone on the wrong political side. Exactly as your memeshitposting from Trumps perspective ALWAYS does. The fact that he's gay only adds to that. Blur the lines, call the guy degenerate. Let it up for others to interpret what you really meant. Come back saying WITCH HUNT. The strategy is clear.
If I was abusing my mod status you would have been banned a long time ago. Nfohump is extremely tolerant towards any kind of opinion. But what you're doing has nothing to do with opinion. Its systematic trolling.
edit: And you've been abusing that for years. Still calling us resetera or whatever, when we've tolerated your political Memeshitposting for years.
Thats over now.

Oh look, it did what we thought it would do.
"Hurdur mod abuse!" Not even an inkling of self reflection.
Well, that was worth bringing back...

It's about damn time? I mean, i dont understand what took you so long, so many years debating someone who's obviously either trolling or just dumb.
I mean, i guess i get the appeal of having one user to constantly bash (yes, even if he's wrong, a moron or both) while the rest of you give eachother pats on the back for having the right opinion (yes, it is the right opinion to have), it builds a sort of sick sense of community, but still, i don't see how you went on for what is now.. 4 years? of constant back and forth trump is god/orange man bad, while still acting surprised that neither of you are changing your stance based on what the other has said.

I don't think there is a right opinion. I guess its ok to like Trump for whatever reasons. Why should it not be. But I think that there is a difference between sharing one's opinion and shitposting/trolling or outright not discussing like your were paid to spread a specific agenda. Like trying to reason with a bot. But making out that difference and reacting accordingly is not and should not be an easy decision to make.

I think you're trying to be neutral for neutrality's sake, i can appreciate how patient you're being but i don't think anyone is gaining anything from these debates aside from self pats on the back.
And i do agree that it shouldn't be an easy decision to make, but you've had 4(?) years to make an informed decision, don't think you've needed the entire 4 to finally decide it's enough?

Regardless of his trolling, it did generate some interesting conversations and debates amongst others. Bringing another diametrically opposed opinion tends to be beneficial to the richness of the conversation overall, it gives something for everyone to chew on.
If anything, constant trolling forces you to be even more subtle and precise in order to properly deflect it. As I've said before, I enjoyed the exercise for the sake of it, it can be good intellectual practice - I'm done with it now. The trolling got way worse lately though, nothing remotely good could begin to come out of it.
What you're saying about the sense of community, etc, isn't that far off the truth entirely, and can well appear like a circlejerk.. It's not like the "rest of you/us" always agrees about everything either.
I totally get that some of us might look like absolute retards for trying and persisting to engage him though, that's damn sure

Let me give you some advice: having "unpopular" opinion isn't trolling. |
Thats true. |
While this might be true to some extent. There is huge difference in having "unpopular" opinion and shitty/uniformed one. Yours is the second one.

Jack, you do realise that VGA himself said he was shitposting (some call it fun)/meme'ing right? Or did that get lost in translation?

Fine by me.
edit: Also 1. downplaying an extremely to the point of ridicule memshitposting bias towards Trump. So obvious. Still taking us for fools. 2. Still thinking calling this other politician a degenerate was ok. It wasn’t. No matter if you accept that or not.
