    Ari is just a right-wing nut who pretends to be the most insane leftist he can to drive people to the right. Barb is some mentally ill person who rants and raves and wants to be cool and hip like Saint MDC. Azuma is a bitter old cat lady who hates everyone because she has been mean and crazy to everyone in her life until she drove them away, then claims victim status. All in all, annoying but not worth leaving the site over. Sometimes Ari and Azuma even make good points. The bigger issue here is people like deathmonkey who are clearly on the take from the DNC and whenever an event happens only posts after the response talking points are published.

    Yes, everyone you disagree with is paid by the DNC....

    Back on topic, I find it's better to engage people in a discussion about my beliefs than to flee the site like a whiny little bitch.

      Seconded on your latter point but if you're not being paid to have those opinions professionally, you're missing out on a golden opportunity.

        I'm pretty sure most the hired trolls are outsourced. He'd have to compete with pretty much anyone with an internet connection who can generate semi-coherent English.

        Yep, I'm sure my misogynistic insults will be a big hit over at DNC headquarters!

    DM, and the other three like to bitch slap people with moderation, but I don't believe he's doing the silly AC posts. Barb and 'Uzi', on the other hand, most definitely, and Ari too, but some are imitating him to throw the dogs off the scent. A whole bunch of people could be doing it, just to fuck all y'all up. People should just learn to roll with it.

        :-) Funny that you think you know who you are talking to. This is one of the great joys of this place.

      "DM and the other three" aren't noticeably worse than most on moderation, they're just more active about moderating.

    I may be mean and bitter, but I'm actually not all that unhappy right now. And only 31, 32 this August. No cats yet though :(

    Here's a free hint: the people I'm mean to generally deserve it, and I'm mean in ways they hate because I keep ripping holes in their worldview. Good isn't necessarily nice or soft. I tried that for far too long and just ended up suffering for it.
