  • @ibleedbrown I've been posting on the poli board for over a decade. The conversations back then were much better. More leveled. More informed. As MAGA grew (formerly all tea party folks) the level of discord dropped. This drive away many posters, good posters, on both sides of the political spectrum. The board continued it's spiral into the echo chamber you see today. 

    Years and years ago I attempted to post full, sourced, intelligent posts constantly. I would respond to misinformed threads (climate skepticism, Obama "death panels", etc.) with fully sourced rebuttals. What was the met with more and more frequently? Nonsense. Memes. Tantrums of Google search links. Slurs. Etc. 

    Throw in the continued cognitive decline of many elderly posters on here and that problem amplifies. 

    Disenchanted may not be the best term, but 98% of posts on here are trash and absolutely not worth the time. This is a central hub for rage porn, MAGA twitter, right wing rag articles, and more. Ignorance on ignorance. 

    It's absolutely not worth the time to respond to posts like I used to. This is a fact based on years of responses here. This place is nothing more than showing up to mess with the monkeys in a cage. 

    It's a damn shame too how much it's fallen off. Just exists as a stain on Browns fans.

    Some can be tied to political leanings, others are no different than saying the killer liked Nike shoes, so anyone wearing Nike shoes is prone to violence. The problem in this forum is people on the left automatically assume political leanings have everything to do with violence if it's a conservative, but totally disregard anything that is actually tied to a left movement causing violence. The retards tend to file it under social justice and play some type of victim card. Go ahead and go through some of our posts on violence and see if you can weed out ones that actually aren't tied to being a lefty when we insinuated as much.

    Trans people tend to group up over on the left side, and while over 90% of trans is a mental illness, how do you separate being mentally ill or listening to left rhetoric causing people to get violent? You can't just ignore all the left media and left politicians calling for violence and labeling Trump all kinds of names and a threat to democracy.

    Are you word salading me or do you wanna suck my left one too?

    I’m fully aware political violence is a thing. I’m not aware that shoes are involved. 

    The problem in this forum is that it’s become janky and you don’t really have anyone on the left to dispute anything other than Woody, and he’s likely become disenchanted.

    From a larger standpoint we’re to the point that when a shooting happens, we immediately reach for that person’s race. And that’s not a Brownsboard subforum problem, it’s a national problem. 

    That’s fucked up. We’re getting hardwired to identify political violence and put it into a box so we can have conversations like this.

    It didn’t used to be like this and it’s not normal. It’s a divisive factor and we should reject it.

    You give him too much credit. He is never honest in his debates and he's always the one that starts with temper tantrums. So much so it's the other way around, posters here have become tired of his ignorance.

    What are you trying to say here? One second you're talking about race and the next politics, which is it? There are all races on every side of the political spectrum. What we've done here is link lefty political violence to the lefts rhetoric, but keep dancing around that fact if you choose and you'll be just as disingenuous as woody.

    Stating facts is not normal? You want to start talking about what are divisive factors? Start with your left media and democrat politicians, we make it easy for you to see for yourself.

    You get proven wrong at every turn. Using the term rage porn is another attempt to silence the truth, It wasn't that long ago the democrats were getting in front of the camera to tell America to be aggressive, get in their face, they are fascist, they are trying to keep you from voting, they are supremacist, they are a threat to democracy, no kings, get out and protest and where does it say it has to be peaceful? Since when is merely stating the truth considered rage porn? Probably about the time the left realized they are being exposed.

    You cry about things I paste here but it's not in my opinion, it's a fact so I post it so everyone can see for themselves, and you have no answer for it other than to cry about where it came from, always ignoring the facts.

    You retards posted worse when Biden won and you thought you seen the last of Trump, then Trump came back and crushed the left with most electoral and popular votes.

    Trump is securing the worlds energy future and all you can do is cry about nonsense.

    Little do you know, that's a much higher standard than your left propaganda machine rabbit hole crap you indoctrinate yourself with.

  • @calfoxwc said:

    ok, I actually read one of your posts. It was inane, not surprised.

    this forum is just fine, it would be cool if we had some liberal oriented posters posting legitimate thoughts. But all we get is antagonistic, stupid ass allegations about every single subject brought up. Too bad.

    Woodpecker isn't "disenchanted", woodpecker has problems when looking into a mirror, I guess, and antagonizes everybody else to compensate. Always has done the same thing. sick stuff, I think.

       and the sickos who tried to assassinate Pres Trump? all white. Pres Trump is white. The sickos who tried to assassinate Pres Reagan, white. The sickos who assassinated JFK and Bobby Kennedy - white.

    Two attempts on Pres Gerald Ford - both were white.

    The shooter at that baseball game, Sen. Scalise was shot - the shooter was white.

    The assassin who murdered Martin Luther King was white. That is one where you could bring racism into it.

    so, NO, "we" don't immediately grab at the person's race.

    Never mind, 

    So white people are the problem? That’s surprising coming from you. This thread is full of surprises.

    Attempted Presidential assassinations are a rarity. Well, they used to be. I may have misspoke a bit. It’s not just race we immediately look at. Gender, creed and sexual orientation are in the mix too. Point is we’re hyper focused on assigning a “side” to blame. 

    I’m sure you’ve noticed that there’s not a lot of good news shared here. You participate in it. This entire forum is like a chain of metaphorical car crashes where everyone sees the worst of human behavior over and over and over again. And it’s not just this forum. This seems to be the new norm with political news.

    We’ve created an environment where assigning blame and identifying enemies is “normal”, and it’s a daily exercise. There’s increased anger and divisiveness, and then we wonder why there’s so much political violence? We’re both old enough to know it didn’t used to be like this. 

    It’s beating the shit out of our collective psyche.

    You don't help the situation as much as you think.

    Start debating us while being honest and without the condescending smart ass remarks, and we could have better debates. If not, then don't get in the habit of crying victim after you help instigate negative responses. 

  • Here is a simple post with a fact. You can start drawing your own conclusions, or you can cry about it being posted from X while ignoring the fact.

    Where does all this anti ICE rhetoric come from I wonder? I don't recall seeing it when Obama was using ICE, maybe more TDS at play?

    Also, if you can view this as rage porn, then surely you admit there is a lot of violence stemming from the left as one can't exist without the other.

    Is all this left violence acceptable? The silence is deafening.

    No, whenever the left on this board concedes a point, they can only do so when lumping in something from the right.

    What you don't like has been going on for a long time however and is not new.

    Can anyone tell me the last time the majority of news reported on facts and left the conclusions up to the viewers? These days, they tell you how to think and what you should be upset about. Most of what I post is simply a report about the facts, some have a little remark which I usually agree with but the facts are right there for you to decide if you agree or not.

    The board is a cesspool because the majority of the topics relate to the corruption, hate, stupidity, etc of the left. You people are Americas cesspool.

  • Dear lord take a listen to this liberal commentator mother fucker.

    Hasan Piker, one that Woody probably listens to every day.

    On "Capitalists" and Republicans: He has used incendiary language such as, "Yeah kill them! Kill those motherfers and murder those motherfers in the streets. Let the streets soak in their fing red capitalist blood, dude"*.

    On Sen. Rick Scott: In 2025, Piker explicitly stated, "If you cared about Medicare fraud or Medicaid fraud, you would kill Rick Scott". He later apologized and served a suspension from Twitch for these remarks.

    On Political Opponents: Following a 2022 debate, he reportedly said, "Left-wingers, liberals, you need to be fing showing your opponents' guts on there. You need to be gutting them"*. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

    On Donald Trump: Piker has referred to Trump as a "porky little nazi pig" and a "fascist". Following a 2026 attempted assassination of Trump at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner, Piker drew criticism for reportedly "mocking" the event and fawning over a joke that referred to Melania Trump as having the "glow of an expectant widow".

    Right, l used the term because you and a couple others here are consumers of outrage porn. You can see the psychological effects it has on its consumers and l think it’s disgusting. That’s me being honest.

    It’s probably better we don’t have a lot of people from the other side posting it here because then this place would become even grosser than it already is.

    The message you and Woody are sending is rather than own up to the political violence and rhetoric your side dominates, it’s more comfortable to sweep it under the rug of “political outrage porn”. Nothing to see here.

    What you’re missing from Tim Kreider, the author who coined the phrase…

    "I'm not saying that all outrage is inherently irrational...outrage is healthy to the extent that it causes us to act against injustice."[3]

    The murder of Charlie Kirk merits outrage. You cannot sensationalize murder and violence no more than you can make water  wetter.

    You may point the finger of political outrage porn at other headlines , but not this. The media does it all the time.

    Not a single sane person will come in here and look at your posts, then look at mine, and have your categorization of the situation.

    This has been proven countless times as your political "condition" oozes out onto the main football board. Where you're then promptly shutdown. 

    This board is an echo chamber and a cesspool. It is a stain on Browns fandom. And you are the poster child is it's decline.

    why not just leave this forum, and come back when you grow the hell up, while learning about American history, how to actually THINK, how to discuss political issues intelligently, and learn to stop trying to get this forum shut down. Just once, actually have a legitimate point, and just once, stop screwing about with every thread.
