Absolutely right, Commie. As I have pointed out several times, today's party of the KKK is the Republican Party, the party that supports the fake news from Fox and Breitbart, the party still suppressing the vote, the party still pushing segregation and Jim Crow laws. The puppet you mention is Bannon's puppet, our failing president. And the Merry Marxists are the cabinet members and conservative members of Congress leading us into deeper debt and soon a major recession. And if you really understood facism, you'd realize it's what Bannon was pushing when he was working in the White House, trying to change our government to an authoritarian, totalitarian one. It's what he studied, it's what he learned, it's what he knows. But you're too caught up in the alt-right talking points and fake news from Fox and Breitbard to understand the truth and reality. Must be using a little too much THC out there in the thin air. trying to change our government to an authoritarian, totalitarian one. It's what he studied, it's what he learned, it's what he knows.
The anti American inept garbage before Trump?

Must be using a little too much THC out there in the thin air. Sorry, no. You don't get to rewrite history, or today's Communist Party, just to make it palatable to the weak minded. Just look at the SA goons, trying to stop ICE from enforcing a law that the Democrats put in place, to bring more slaves into the country, because the citizens are waking up to the scam. Look at the anti white racism rampant in the Party of the KKK, because they think they have dumbed down a large enough population of blacks to keep them voting for slavery. Look at the "government health care" scam they are pushing, so that everyone is a slave to the government, because, otherwise, "you don't get health care, you don't think properly". Deeper into debt? Really? You can have your keeper type that with a straight face? The Puppet more than doubled the debt, and gave us a failing economy to go with it. Trump as nearly tripled The Puppet's best year, in only one year, black unemployment is historically low, and wages are finally climbing up. But that's ok, you go ahead and continue to worship The Puppet, the Muslim Communist that did his best to destroy the country. You have no idea what fascism is. You are simply repeating the mantra's given to you by your masters. It wasn't Trump that declared "I can't just rewrite the immigration laws", then proceeded to do so. It wasn't Trump that weaponized the IRS, FBI, NSA, ATF, and EPA to destroy anyone that disagreed with him. It hasn't been Trump drumming up the SA, then sending them out to attack anyone that doesn't dance to the Communist tune. That was all The Puppet and his Merry Marxists.

"Claptrap, claptrap, claptrap, bullshyte, bullshyte, bullshyte"... As for "puppet", and "merry Marxists", those are extremely accurate descriptions of the persons and parties at issue. Simply listen to the hysteria coming from the Party of the KKK today. And, by the way, "Party of the KKK" ... "Claptrap, claptrap, claptrap, bullshyte, bullshyte, bullshyte"... The only hysteria that I'm hearing is coming from you pal. So, telling the truth about the Communist Party USA is now "claptrap"? Really?

In my opinion, it is disingenuous today to associate either party with the KKK. People choose a given political party for a plethora of reasons. Stronger arguments can be made by directly specifying your disagreements with an issue and why, without resorting to associating a given parent group with an undesirable organization. It's as bad as playing the race card. The problem is, it's one party and one party only, demanding absolute obedience, and using the race card to shut down any and all disagreement with their Communist agenda. And far too few people today know that the KKK, the boogey man that is constantly trotted out to attack Pubs, is a Democrat creation. As is Jim Crow, segregation, "separate but equal", and slavery. They have gone to massive lengths to hide all that, and, given that they demand the destruction of anyone opposing them, often on a chance remark from decades ago, that can't be allowed to stay hidden. Their racism is virulent, and undergirds their entire platform. It's what they are built on, and what they espouse today.

We would offer shelter to refugees. Of course, this board is almost dead-- murdered by folks who couldn't understand the difference between discussing a topic and shouting, "So's your Mama!" You are so right... and at least one of 'em is still here... as in... "It would be nice to have some lefties who have the ability to explain their position without accusing anyone who disagrees with them of racism/homophobia/whatever new cop-out the ignorant need to make themselves feel superior." And that isn't Redleg... Redleg posts a lot but says basically the same thing every time... he's a good guy...

I read your link and saw some names I remember as quality posters from "the old board". (Not that I always agreed with them-- or ever, for a couple-- but still quality posts worth reading.) SunSpot--back ca 2000, was a marvelous place, highly diverse in several ways-- back when the verb "to troll" was known only to commercial fishermen. For a while, it seemed the Internet really would be a force to bring us ordinary people together to solve extraordinary problems. So much for dreams, right? *sigh* But, by all means, tell everyone this board is here... for those who wish to continue the conversation, Glad to see you are still here. Keep up the good posting. It is funny but I have been missing from the other forum for months due to the fact that it was a pit hole with no new ideas, just the same old same old. I started reading the farewell thread a couple of days ago, and it still hadn't changed. They seem to think that this forum is now unmoderated and a worse hell hole than theirs. That will be interesting to see. There is also a reddit baltimore sun site that a bunch are starting up. As I understand it this forum is closed so only previously non banned members can be on it due to no administer to admit new users. Do you know if this is true?

The farewells show the ratio of left vs. right.... I guess 99% of those that don't agree with the Suns LW perspective gets booted? I imagine they lost more than a few subscribers in the counties that read their biased trash on the forums.

Of more interest to me is that they said this site was an unmoderated cess pit, but doing some reading it seems more civilized than the other site. I think they see the right leaning posts and consider any desire for smaller government, and more freedom to be a cess pit.

It's as bad as playing the race card. We have people being fired, after assault by hysterical mobs, for a comment, or a vote, made years ago. The Democrat Party is the party of slavery, Jim Crow, segregation, the KKK, lynchings, and FDR, but that's ok, because "it was a long time ago". They are not just "associated with" the KKK, they created it, nurtured it, funded it, and for a long time, a Democrat couldn't get elected dog catcher until he had proven his KKK bona fides. Their racism is just as strong today, it just takes different tacks. Instead of lynchings, they keep blacks and hispanics in serfdom with welfare, forcing them into failing schools, and treating them as pets instead of intelligent human beings. All in an effort to keep them on the plantation and voting Dem.

Except that the ones calling people KKK or NAZI are the ones that created the KKK, and backed the NAZIs. Are currently owned by a real NAZI, Soros.

I never left I just didnt post much because it was down to about 6 people and a couple of those were not worth paying attention to. Here is hoping the old place revives Yes, indeed ... anything will be better than the Ranger John/Redleg show. I have been hoping that the number would increase but not really.

More specifically the fact that a small group of trolls were spamming the board with multiple logins spewing racist and Nazi filth. In retrospect I was less than polite about it.

In retrospect I was less than polite about it. That makes more sense, I have read your posts on and off for some number of years and I can't recall you being objectionable enough to get banned. But we all have limits and trolls are expert at pushing buttons. Thanks for the explanation.

The reddit site is a bit weird and hard to follow conversations (forum software) so I don't know if I will follow it for long. This site seems pretty peaceful so far, and I kind of like that the extreme posters who were banned can't get in. Evil Yoda can probably get back in, and he probably has contact with the owners if anyone cares to see if they can take over. Personally I wouldn't wish that job on my worst enemy. Have a great 4th.

It is hard to tell. The ones whining the most seem to be the usual lefties, so that means they are being attacked by right wing trolls. I have only read a few threads, and avoid those created by the "gene" types, so so far haven't seem much venom. I am sure that will change though.

If one looked at the rationality on the Sun it showed it's INCREDIBLE bias. You could count the long term conservatives on one hand, the intolerant nuts and liars ran the asylum. As I said, that board cost the Sun subscriptions.
They had a field day with the one conservative Mod they had, took great pride on getting her fired, allowed imbeciles like EgyptKang to come back after 50 other incarnations much like "Winston" of this board spewing his wannabe racist crap. So now it's all gone, I DID enjoy some of the foresight on the football forum. Outside of that it was a circle jerk spearheaded by a academia doctors wife in Pittsburgh, a hateful nurse in Delaware and a Marine atty's wife playing lil miss innocent "who me" somewhere near Baltimore.
