Is this what passes for 'political debate' here?

[Filuwaúrdjan]

The most recently posted threads on this board are:

Should taxation be voluntary?
Roe v. Wade Hypothetical
Who should be taken off currency
Random HoffmanJohn rubbish
Is "hoodlum" a racist word?
Do you think pregnant women who have miscarriages should be thrown in prison

In addition there are loads of stupid threads started by that knuckle-headed pest Rochambeau.

It's gotten infinitely worse since the invasion of the libertarian trolls.

It does kind of suck. Alot of the time there are certain posters that will respond to something that necessitates a thoughtful response, but the poster who made the original post had no intention of ever having a discussion in the first place.

There are some good posters that, even if I disagree with them and think they're completely out of their minds, do bother to argue. But there are other posters that just prefer to throw out one-liners which, when responded to seriously, turn out to just be a feint.

Maybe it ebbs and flows. I haven't been here as long as some of you, but I notice a sort of rollercoaster in thread quality. It'll pick up again.

Yes obviously. What sort of question is that? What you gone blind Al?
