The Donald-----The Compensator

[nhboy]

"Trump is a conspicuously self-conscious, thin-skinned compensator taking advantage of the nation’s least-critical thinkers by exaggerating their problems and repeating unrealistic and amoral solutions enough that fanned fears get the better of their political motivations. Trump has proven himself a natural at demagoguery, for which Trump’s limited language aptitude and alleged squirrel brain are his best campaign assets." (L. Olson)

Who even are all these people you're quoting and why on earth do you think anybody gives a #### about their retarded opinions?

DeeJay, I'm of the opinion these need to be moved to a more appropriate folder. I was under the impression this was for quotes intended to impart wisdom or insight - not quotes just because someone said them.

I'm sure somebody thinks these dumb quotes by dumb people are wise and insightful.

I am considering a rethink of the Politics and News forums so that they don't get cluttered up with stupid garbage, and are only populated with relevant debate and articles. Just not sure how to do that without introducing my personal biases.

You have personal biases.....?

I wonder the same thing every time I read a post from LittleLady or Malice.

Why wouldn't you give NH his own forum? Could you redirect all his posts into it?

Well that is awfully ####ing liberal of you to suggest. Why doesn't NH have his own forum on his own dime? Probably because no one would ever visit it or those that do couldn't be riled like they are here because they would probably all march to the same liberal drum.

How much effort do I really want to put forth so that some idiot can have his own little retarded fiefdom on MY forum, free no less, that does nothing for my business endeavor?

Isn't this just a little too late? By commenting and sharing your opinion in the majority of the threads on this board... you are introducing your bias! Your personal bias is all over this board.

I'm far from an nhboy defender but... isn't he a Premo member? Doesn't that mean he actually pays money for that membership?

yeah, but a 'personal' forum is an additional fee

My *opinions* are all over this board. As yet, I have not banned or censored anyone based on their own opinions. Free speech is alive and well on the Somd.com forums.

Premium membership does not include a personal forum, and it certainly does not include me administering it and populating it.

You say "opinions" as if they are not biased in the least. Personally, I really do not care what your "opinions" are however, to say that they are not biased is just plain untruthful. Rarely is a true unbiased opinion given on this forum... including your own.

You also mention free speech however, that happens to be the ONE thing that I agree with nhboy in the FACT that certain opinions are attacked and frowned upon on this forum if they do not meet the standards of the "core posters" here. Plenty of evidence of that happening around here.

Oh well... its the very definition of insanity around here. nhboy will post his drivel, the usual suspects will counter instead of ignoring, the clicks will continue to tally up, and everyone will be happy

Not even sure how to respond to this tirade.

My personal opinions are obviously biased - that's what opinions do: be biased.

When I, as the moderator, start banning and censoring people with whom I disagree politically, NOW there's some unfairness going on. Although, honestly, we are a private company and can pretty much do whatever we want with our website. But that's not the intent of the community forums, so we don't censor except in cases of extreme profanity, vulgarity, hostility, etc.

Free speech works both ways. NHB is free to post his drivel; other posters are free to disagree with him and make their own comments. That's what makes it so free.

As far as "core posters" - I don't even know what that means. NHB has been on here longer than many other posters, and he's highly active with quite a few threads to his name, plus he posts multiple times almost every day. Is he a "core poster"? What does one have to do to be a "core poster"?

LOL. Can't say I ever saw an opinion that wasn't biased.
