    Pick fights with everyone / Call everyone names as their sole argument / drag discussion down the Pyramid of Debate / pick fights with everyone

    I'll take Things We've All Done for $200, Alex. I've been called few names by you and I'm no saint either. We aspire to the PoD, nobody here is perfect. Lol, we can be pod people.

    Complain about s/ironleft being taken off of s/all for breaking the mod rules

    Me and u/socks are starting a new sub, s/shitpostnews that got taken off s/all and I think it was cause we were astroturfed by the nazis. They just do that, we don't want it. It's in it's infancy but I see a lot of potential for calling out news sources, main stream and otherwise, for truly shit posts. It's a target rich environment.

    I've been called few names by you and I'm no saint either.

    There's a major difference between occasionally labelling someone appropriately, and throwing the word "retard" at everyone when you're unable to formulate a rational counter-argument.

    I called you a jack-ass douchebag once, because you where being a jack-ass; Bob calls someone a retard because that's exactly what they are not.

    I personally find it to be of some use, but would recommend more information about each news source rather than just a label.

    I'm not sure why it was removed from all, but it's best not to fight with Magnora over it (u/socks) that's a pretty easy way to piss him off — it's exactly what the ironleft folks did before they got banned. I will note, however, that they where censoring posts, which is against the moderator rules; Jason would back me up on this one if he was here, because it was his post.

      You called me a douchebag too.

      Ah, yes, that's what I meant. Maybe I called you a jack-ass too, but that wasn't the case I was referring to.

      My point is not that you once called me a name and I'm mad about it, but that we ALL get upset and talk shit sometimes.

      The keyword is "sometimes"; Bob called everyone a "retard" nearly all the time.

      I'm not looking to fight.

      That was directed at u/socks, not you; I checked the mod log.

      But anything that doesn't make it to s/all is hardly worth doing since we all browse by s/all.

      I do realize that, but I would like to point out that I personally browse only the subs I'm subscribed to. I did subscribe to s/shitpostnews. By the way, I just thought of this: the sub's title and logo should be "The Shit Post", like the "Washington Post", "New York Post", etc.

      Thank you for these suggestions. /s/shitpostnews is meant to be a place for more information about the propaganda websites. I'll see how much of this we can take on board. M7 hasn't mentioned anything to us. He toggles the r/all option, but I don't know why.

      Yw. Might want to ask him if you're unsure, just try to be polite, please.

      Will do.
