This forum has a sense of humor but when you start talking the lobster **** the fun and games get set aside and you get shut down hard.

OH both gets a buffer for being a pinko and gets a shrug after all this time since he doesn't really care about attempts at shutting down so that gives an impression that this site is more tolerant of far right views but in general the far right either gets tired of dealing with us and leaves or clams up.

As someone who has a political ideology that differs from the general consensus of MB (and no, not a far right one no matter how much it's joked about, but one that is more to the right in comparison), I can attest it's really tiring to get in a multi-pronged debate on here. It's easy to see how someone that goes against the political grain can be turned off after fighting a brutal (and often very barbed) argument 'attacking' them on all sides.

I've been in such confrontations before but my life isn't ruled by politics so I don't find it an injury to my character when somebody (or most somebodies) disagree with me. In the end it's mostly about having a thick skin. Get one or get out.

I'm a borderline commie and I still don't care for getting into arguments in here. But yeah, I do see some bad faith against people for leaning right. It's the same with musical tastes, really, just not as bad. Either you fit the prescribed views or you get hazed.

Elph's a twit but in general it's just ribbing cause that's what we do. I mean I talk **** but it's just all in good fun for me. Goof came at us with straight up Sargon-level anti-feminism claptrap.

I’ve never come close to losing an argument here so I wouldn’t know.
