New Election Threads Are Stupid

[JackRiddler]

BUMP this if you would like to see the recent proliferation of new threads that repeat the same old shit about the US presidential election locked. This one should be locked at the same time, of course, but I hope not before. If you're mad about the latest outrage from either Cthulhu twin, it's already being covered in the long-running, dedicated threads. There are already 200+ pages between the ones for Clinton and Trump, which merged thematically long ago. It's absurd to repost the same story not once, not twice, but five to six times, and then have fragments or repeats of the same bullshit comments on all six. The power of RI is in holding focused discussions continuously over years. That's what makes us the ANTI-Facebook, where there's a new "timeline" post every fourteen seconds and it disappears five minutes later forever, unless it's advertising or cats. There's also a Stein thread and specifically an election fraud thread started by Willow the Wise. There was also a Sanders thread. Those four or five are surely enough? (I'm sure some wag will now start "Gary Johnson Is Seriously Unable to Find His Ass.")

BUMP THIS!

I'm still waiting for the "Jill Stein is seriously dangerous" thread.

Yes.

Right, maybe you could mention it to Jeff...

I saw some post on FB today saying something like this: "I'm
Voting Gary Johnson for president because I don't want anymore war, and Gary Johnson won't invade any countries because he doesn't know where any of them are".

It was worded better than that but you get the drift.

[seemslikeadream]

he doesn't know where any of them are

or who is running them

Indeed that is the power and the value of RI. Always was and still is. There is an ebb and flow of course...

For me the charm was always reading/experiencing original content from authentic, original people. I love a good treasure hunt. Some days you just walk around and there are gold nuggets laying on the surface. Other days you have to dig and it feels like others keep shoveling a mountain of dirt on top of you.

I'm waiting for Hillary Clinton is harmless, seriously.

Well if we're going to have BUMP threads why not have a GIVE UP thread? Anyway, I think this joint is only what we make of it. Some are here still. I'm not going anywhere. RI is still my favorite site. I don't know why. I don't like fighting, trolling, condescension etc and for the most part this is why "many" of us remain.

[seemslikeadream]

Will all the unauthentic people please leave you are hurting bph eyes and she gets grouchy when she comes here and has to wade through the riffraff ....and that shovel of hers is oh so very heavy....give the girl a break

Now that RI is down to 3 people I am sure things will more pleasurable for the queen of really deep thoughts

As in many instances I also agree with jack on this one.

Maybe we can merge this with the Trump Vs Clinton is political stupidity personified thread ?

Thanks seemslikeadream, I didn't think I could get a bigger laugh today than seeing Assange's "madejalook!" poke at the GOP, but that was spit-take worthy!
