Believe it or not, this board used to have some good discussion. And it's why I have come here in the past. I enjoy talking politics, and I get a lot out of hearing other points of view.
Lately, it's just gotten bad. I doubt anyone would disagree w/ this. I feel like most posters here are just so fed up w/ the "other side" that they don't even want to have discussions anymore. They come here just to vent, and take out whatever frustrations they have. Some here post absolutely nothing of substance. Just insult after insult after insult.
And, I'll say it again: this is an anonymous message board. No one is hurt by repetitive, generic insults directed their way. They're just lame & ineffectual, and derail actual debate.
Anyhoo, I've simply stopped responding to certain posters here as a result. I'm just not going to indulge it anymore. I'd encourage others here to do the same. Maybe it's too dreamy, but I believe this can still be a place for spirited debate.
