Then explain how my rep has gone from almost 700 down to about 450 in the last week.  I also had a message where I had 61 notifications about my posts of sort or another and I went into my profile to look for them and everything in my profile is blank.

Yeah, that was before you went off the deep end. You earned every one of them. 

Did we ever get a definition of what “goes away” means in the “until coronavirus goes away?”  Just curious.

That rolling ball of hate sub forum should just die in a fire and the little cartoon kid Calvin can piss on the ashes.

Theoretically it should be some kind of bargain basement (sub-basement/storm cellar/S&M dungeon, however you want to describe it) point/counterpoint or 90s CNN Crossfire type of free for all.  However one side of the discussion deals with differences of opinion by reacting like someone just hit them in the face with a water balloon filled with battery acid.  If I negged every opinion in that forum I disagreed with I wouldn't have any fingerprints on my thumbs and possibly no tendons either.  Suck it up buttercups, you are having your opinions challenged.  You are not being beaten to death with a rubber hose.

  If I neg something it is either a personal attack on me or someone else or it is so ridiculously idiotic I can't not understand how anyone on earth, regardless of political ideology, can possibly come up with their conclusion.  The latter is a very hard standard to reach.  I am a free speech absolutist who feels that the worst that should happen from speech I don't like is that I will get offended or pissed off.  There are much, much, much worse consequences possible to speakers or speech if the people who don't like the speech are allowed to punish the speaker for it.

Internet message boards are not bastions of free speech.

moderator out front shoulda told ya.

Oh they're bastions of free speech, but also bastions of complete, and utter abuse by other people of your free speech thoughts.

Message boards are basically bastions of blather, Brah.

I'm not talking about moderators.  I've got no problem with them, was even put in time out for a week a few weeks ago and didn't complain.  It's the moberators that go around negging every post of mine they can find just because they don't agree with me that pisses me off.  I get it, I don't have the most popular opinions in the CR but I'm starting to feel there are a couple of posters over there who are starting to neg my posts just because it is my post and I'm somewhat suspicious that they aren't even reading them.  There is a subset of "mean girls" in the CR and when you get on their bad side like me, Johnny Sack, Zork, and few others have they come after you tooth, fang, and claw.  It's not that important people, it's just the internet.

If I was a female I would hope I could find a man with a boner like the one Upper Westside gets when he negs me.  Negged seven straight posts of mine in the Satirical Tweets and Memes thread alone since the last time I was on here.

Gosh, I wonder what could have possibly happened that would drive all the Surly conservatives into hiding? Could it possibly be shame and the only ones left are the true trumptards like EMA and Sack? Nah its clearly cause surly is full of a bunch of lefty commies, all the true rational republicans are still posting on the shit fetish site

What's interesting is that unless you swallow Trump's bullsh, you're "a leftist". Today's "conservative" has no idea what an actual conservative is or looks like. Hint: It ain't what's in DC right now.

Not really. It’s more like unless you are a socialist then you are Hitler. If you don’t support open borders, free healthcare and college for all, and abortions up to the minute the baby’s head crowns then you might as well be leading the March of the 4th Reich. It’s beyond ridiculous.

I’ve patiently tried to explain to you multiple times that based upon your posts, it is obvious that you are a victim of propaganda from Fox News and other conservative propaganda outlets. Yet you’ve continuously ignored everyone as you’ve continued to fall for these schemes. At some point people just gave up on you and assumed you were too stupid to wake up.
I don’t know why you waste time. It’s a leftist echo chamber. They exist to pounce on guys like you. When you and JS and zork leave, they’ll get bored. 


There are very left posters in CR, but as a centrist independent, it has become very obvious to me that the right has completely abandoned facts and is straight up lying about everything these days. The problem with right supporters is that they haven’t researched facts enough to understand how poorly the right is behaving these days. It’s criminal. This is not to say that outlets like msnbc, huff post and others aren’t also bad on the left. They are. But relatively, the right is criminal these days.

Finally able to look at some of the notifications.  I underestimated Upper Westside's douchebagability.  He negged at least 24 straight posts of mine.  Kind of surprised his avatar isn't Mark David Chapman.

So when you are being bullied you should just do whatever the bully wants you to do.  That sounds like the American way.

I offset a few of those. Seems like the one thread in the Cloak Room that you should be able to post in without getting negged... sadly that isn't the case

It really is ridiculous that rep isn't fixed so you can't neg rep like that. Even pos rep should have some limitations.

I’ve spent most of my extended life aligned with many of the positions of the right, such as fiscal responsibility and the importance of individual responsibility for determining a persons level of success in life.

However, Rush Limbaugh, Fox News and Brietbart, among others, took propaganda to a whole new level that had never really existed before, ignoring facts to simply reframe any and all issues, no matter the truth, to be in favor of the conservative agenda.

In today’s environment, Richard Nixon would never be removed from office because of the behavior of Republicans and conservatives. I never thought the party would abandon all of their true principles just to stay elected, but they did. It’s sad and despicable. And before the left gets too smug, they aren’t a whole lot better, but they haven’t completely yet abandoned morals and ethics completely. The Republicans have. And I understand those on the right who don’t see it or believe it. It’s tough to fight through all of that propaganda to find facts. It takes work and effort, and most people never do it. They just watch their Facebook feed for memes that reinforce their existing beliefs.

And finally, the other reason conservatives have their heads up their asses is because they haven’t realized that the world isn’t like it was twenty years ago. At that time, a person could afford a college education, a car and an apartment and make their way through the world. Nowadays that is extremely difficult. Those that say “welI I was able to pull myself up by my bootstraps” has not done the math lately on what it costs to survive today vs twenty years ago. Wages haven’t moved much at all for most people while costs are way higher. Facts. You should try them.

I love love love the leftie labeling himself an independent or centrist, or pulling the Brisket bull shit of “my former party”. Shut the fuck up and just own up to what you are. Try not to tell us how many black friends you have in the process.

I see it exactly the opposite.  I've said this a lot here and nothing seems to be changing to make me say it any less.  The Republican Party annoys me but the Democrat Party currently scares the fuck out of me.  There are always things that annoy you.  That is part of life, however life shouldn't be throwing things that scare the fuck out of you at you.

I've made the argument over there that the Republican Party has moved to the furthest left it has ever been.  That argument goes over about as well as complimenting Bob Stoops on the football board.

I bet every CR poster is tearing up their stimulus money, cause Trump and evil white people and stuff.

Making a safe space where discussion about a national catastrophe is exclusively non-political feels awkward and artificial to me personally. Doesn't much matter though.

The space in the Daily Texan is for people to have neither a left or right opinion. The safe space in CR are reserved for maricons like yourself.

Interesting. I had no idea that homophobic Gary Johnson voters were so plentiful, but I guess I'll take your word for it.
