This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Exactly, no flexibility in anything...you're either on board by ndgenius
with the entire right or left wing platform or we don't want anything to do with you and by the way you're stupid and don't know anything.
I don't want my life to be defined by a political party but thanks to the news stations, lots of people have chosen that path.
The number of people who choose to decorate the outside of their home with Republican paraphernalia is just staggering to me. Whether it's "Trump 2024", "My Governor is an Idiot" or the utterly appalling "Fuck Joe Biden" I just don't understand why people are so hung up on the election.
