Has suberbeets been banned from the Poltical Forum?

[Dafinch]

BTW I never said anything about the bolded part, although you seemed to be wishing for it. Even Guesser said, bad news" when he learned it wasn't true.

When you say, "you guys,' and then specifically mention me right after that, it certainly sounds like you did. In any event, there's a big difference between wishing for somebody to be banned and believing that they deserve to be banned.

It's like Dave says to me, Scott why do you waste your time? Yeah he's refering to Vit, but really it's the whole forum. If I wanted to make it my pet project to repair this place I'm sure eventually I could. But to what end? What about the value of my time? How much should I give of it in working toward everyone accepting that people can disagree politically and still get along? To spend time and energy and receive nothing for my efforts?

Lately I just post in the pic thread and read a few threads between capping games to break the monotony. I don't even want to be drawn into the arguments anymore. There were 2 topics I wanted to post about over the past few days and I never even started those threads. Instead I've done this. You guys won't even admit, none of you, how much negativity these repetitive battles bring and the time they waste from your lives.

Who are you trying to kid? 10 men and a boy couldn't change this place.


There are the assholes who's only purpose for posting is to agitate. Then
there are the enablers who have to respond. As I see it they need each other.


The lack of self restraint or complete addiction if you will, is dumbfounding.


To some extent we're all responsible, some just more so than others.

Moving past is fine by me.

Good Man!

Where the heck does my optimism come from? Oh well......

I was curious, did you see the piece that Bannon, Rump's campaign manager, got charged for domestic abuse several years ago, he and the wife fought about their kid going to a private school that, in Bannon's opinion, had too many Jews in it(mentioning specifically that Jews always allow their kids to become "whiny brats")?

I'm just trying to point out reality but I'm not optimistic that I have.

If you're asking if I grew up with a lot of whiny brats, uh, YEAH!

In all honesty I've been exposed to so many different types of people, in both my formative and college years, and ever since.
Up at University Park I was trained by two black guys to receive my FCC license to broadcast. I went to elementary school with mostly Jewish kids, had experience with Jewish private school, and went to high school with all gentiles and children of farmers. So I've seem it all. I don't stereotype but I don't believe all stereotypes are 100% unfounded. That's how you get jokes about Jewish girls dropping their nail file when they have an orgasm.

I noticed a few black students at PSU who perceived the entire campus as against them. This is back in 1980. I fully immersed myself inside black student life. It came with the R&B radio gig so we did a lot of on campus events. I didn't live in their skin obviously, but I couldn't tell where their grievances came from. Even campus radio was amenable to us when we asked to expand our format to a second night. We had several campus buildings exclusively for our events. Brought Pieces of a Dream up to play a concert.

I ended up running our schedule as a senior. There was one guy, Hodge who was against me being on black radio programming because I was white. I was on 9-12am. He came on at midnight. First thing he did was shout out to all the brothers locked down at Huntingdon and Rockview. Then he played Gil Scott Heron, "The Revolution will not be televised." I later found out Hodge wasn't even a registered student. Eventually he warmed up to me. LOL it takes all kinds to make a world.
Bannon is either an asshole, or his ex wanted him portrayed that way. Probably the former.
