Wouldn't it be more productive to complain that Hillary should have used a non-Microsoft email server?

Hillary is beyond law, beyond complaints, and beyond morality. So no, it doesn't matter what server she used to illegally redirect state communications into private possession.

What was the content of that post? First it's in reply to:
Now the quote:
Sorry, I'm not buying the rightness of the content. Even with your link, hemocyanin (which wasn't in the original post), we only have the bald fact that there's a lot of black on Asian attacks. We don't have the rest of the claim, that DeathMonkey's "crowd" is trying to use one particular bout of attacks to "excuse" that. Sorry, this is just more of the sloppy accusations we see on the internets.
For what it's worth, I think the problem is visibility. An apparently white person who happens to be the serial killer in DeathMonkey's journal naturally gets far more media attention than nebulous black on Asian violence. I don't think anyone was trying to "excuse" anything. They just don't see it.

Fair enough. I simply felt the comment was sufficiently topical on the way crimes are asymmetrically reported in the media. Omission and over-inclusion are two powerful propaganda tools.

Is there a point? He stood himself back up. Without any assistance. Continued up the steps, turned and saluted. Trump couldn't walk down a ramp unassisted. Biden exercised, jogs, rides a bike. I'd like to see Trump do either of those.

I think GP's point is that Sleepy Joe is unfit. You chose to compare Unfit Joe to Unfit Donald, so I'll play along. I don't recall any videos of Trump stumbling on the steps up into an aircraft. Unless you can link to such a video, then, yes, Donny is more fit than Joe.
But then, you "trigger" a related response. Fusty beats his drum long and loud that we, the voters, should flush the septic tank labeled "Washington, D.C." regularly. I try to sing harmony with his drum beating from time to time. FFS, why in hell was the election between two old bastards like Donny and Joey?
We did have younger, qualified people running, but the voters rejected some of them, and the D party rejected the rest. It's pretty damned embarrassing, actually.
And, finally - do you still seriously expect Joe to hold his office for 4 years? The dumb bastard has a hard time reading his teleprompts now. Won't take questions at all. His handlers will have him put out to pasture soon.

Since you are definitely old enough, my guess is that dementia has erased memories of President Ford falling down the steps while exiting Air Force 1; I seem to recall that it happened more than once. We all got some good laughs out of the spectacle. Chevy Chase certainly used it to good affect to further his career as a comedian on SNL. But no one ever questioned Ford's fitness to be President.

President Ford was well-known for being clumsy, but was he? That's just what you saw on TV, repeated over and over.
President Clinton wasn't thought to be clumsy, but how would you know? The media liked him.
It's the same with Trump and Biden. You only see what they want you to see. You probably didn't see Trump walking off-road to reach an event, jumping over obstacles at the side of a highway. He did that, with no assistance from the Secret Service. You probably didn't see Hillary Clinton shoved into a van like a side of beef, her body stiff and unresponsive due to some sort of neurological issue. You probably didn't see her spasming out, with weirdly flopping head and gaping mouth. That happened too.
If the media followed you around all day, what story could they tell? With the right editing: drunk, or athletic, or clumsy, or incoherent, or presidential, or sleazy, or foolish... or whatever.

I agree, though I would go slightly further and say a post without value is fine, it's the posts that contribute negative value that should be downmodded. Perhaps you are saying something similar "... really contributes no value."
Here is an example of what I consider a perfectly legitimate Troll mod -- it's not that it is merely valueless, it's strident, insulting, and humorless:
https://soylentnews.org/comments.pl?sid=21/03/18/202241&cid=1126392 [soylentnews.org] That still leaves open the question of funny quality trolls -- we do need the "+1 Troll" mod (more efficient and certain than underrated).
