No denying I'm new to PPP. I don't think I ever posted here until this summer.

My understanding is that it started out with a diversity of opinions and what we could call spirited arguments.

More recently it became dominated by posters of a certain political philosophy or mindset. Those with different opinions were considered interlopers and typically were shot down. In other words, over time PPP began to function not as an open forum, but as a club -- effectively invitation only because disagreement was not tolerated.

If it is a club in practice, then it might as well become a club in name and in structure. 

Me? I have no interest in communicating only with people who think like me. So I have no interest in a club.

 

You admit that you are new to PPP,  by are claiming that "recently" this forum became dominated by posters of a particular mindset?  I'll agree with you on the latter, but not for the reasons you're thinking.   If you want to communicate, a bit of introspection is helpful.

 

Again, this place has been in existence for 20+ years.  Most of the people who were banned over the years were not liberals.

I didn’t get it all, but this topic got way off track with a lot of personal back-and-forth. I just sort of mass deleted a whole slew of posts - no offense, but this train took a left at Albuquerque and we weren’t going that way.

 

"... this topic?" 😅

Seriously, SDS? That's been this entire ***** forum over the past six months, and is the main reason you've lost so many posters. Perhaps you'll figure that out six months from now.

Bump.

 

If anyone is interested in the aftermath of DR's banning.

 

After reading, especially the first few pages, one might want to ask this question:

 

Why is Billstime/Homelander still here?

That gang is gone. They drop in here from time to time but they've reconvened elsewhere. 

So ... why did you folks come back?

You had your little club. You didn't invite in dissenting voices. You didn't have to use the "ignore" function because it was an ideal echo chamber.

So ... why?

[BillsFanNC]

⬆️ 

 

Finding also outed itself as being new to PPP circa 2020.

 

Such vast experience in the cesspool

I don't thrive in an echo chamber, I prefer to argue. The only reason I would be for a banning of Homelander is he lies so much. Everyone else here, while often obnoxious, seems to want to advance the conversation somewhat.

I won't try to invade his safe space on that other site. Perhaps he shouldn't invade this open space.

 

Oh, yeah, a mere 5 years around here. I'm a newbie. (translation: I have a life)

I agree with this part.

People should learn how to argue though, not to simply insult or gloat.

I'm gonna try something here.

You know how Reddit does an Ask Me Anything (AMA)? 

I'll start one on immigration and court procedure. I pretend to have expertise on a lot of things, but I really do know this field.

Do you think we can keep it objective and not insulting? I'll try to note what is my opinion vs. what is the established law.

Not optimistic but i'll try.

I've been here longer than you Finding. Much longer.

 

I told you why you're on ignore. Many times.  You just don't like it.  Ignoring your commie crap also has the side benefit of clearly pissing you off, which is also nice.

 

Leftist scum:

 

Let us spam the board with leftist crap while relentlessly harassing a specific poster until HE gets banned.

 

Also leftist scum:

 

Whine about  being ignored.  That's rich.  Go whine to the mods about that why don't you?

Yeah, narcissists hate to be ignored.

As you can tell by this board, when ignored they unravel.

Speaking personally, I wouldn’t care about the ignore thing if you didn’t constantly post insults about me in every single thread you post in daily. It’s very tiresome.
