Title: Hello all
Post by: Ardent15 on September 07, 2010, 08:23:17 PM
I am a community college student who is still exploring my political philosophy. I was a poster at Democratic Underground, but they canned my ass. Oh well.

I would love to debate and even agree with you folks. But at this juncture, internet flame wars are pretty pointless, since America is ****ed under Obama. I agree with you on that.

Anyway, see you on the forum.

Well......it takes a lot more than what happens at the DU to get you banned here.  No flames here, we do like a good debate.  Welcome!

Take a position on something,be prepared to discuss and debate it and all will be fine.
Ask questions and civilly accept opinions in disagreement.

The bottom line is think out a position and back it up with historical and realistic arguments.

I know some of you don't like me and some of you think I'm a liberal idiot.

I will vouch for Ardent.  He is a young man exploring his philosophies.   He has been run off DU and OET for doing such.  Kind of stupid if you are trying to build a political philosophical movement to attack youths asking questions.  The absolute dreadful treatment of Ardent over there is the reason I'm no longer spending time at OET.  They are morons.

I'm hoping that you here will allow him to explore your points of view and test them.  You may win him over on a few ideas.  I'm not as liberal as you all think I am.  I hate both parties.  I just had to pick a side for a while.  I'm sure if I pick the other side I'm going to be just as disappointed.  I view this more as philosophical debate as the Republic is crumbling at this point with no one who has the courage to save the Republic.

Welcome. You learned the first lesson. Already. "Progressives" are only "progressive" with people who agree with them. They turn into dictators pretty quickly otherwise.

Truthful, purposeful insight and acceptance of ones problems is the first step to recovery...

Who was that liberal cocksucker with a wife who couldn't have kids that pussied out only after a few days of trolling here? I liked him more.

Only because he spouted so much BS that everyone had time for a chew.... :evillaugh:

Welcome, Ardent....listen and learn, Grasshopper...there is much knowledge and wisdom to be found out in the real world.... :-)

Howdy and welcome.  It's a lot more fun to post on a board where you're allowed to have your own opinion .... even if it's wrong!

Fair warning: That will put you under a magnifying glass in the eyes of some members. Jake vouching for you will put you under a microscope.  :lmao:

However, if you got shit canned from the DUmp, you may bring something to the table, Padawan. Welcome to the Cave, and enjoy your stay.

I'd encourage you to be nice.  You have a kid you might be able to explain a few points on he might find agreement with you.  Or you can be the dumb-asses at OET and act patronizing and not answer questions truthfully and turn off a youth.

I'm a hopeless case, I just hate the federal reserve system.

Just saying.  I don't "fit" anywhere politically.  However, Ardent is a bright young person.  I just hope you all will make him think.

There are ways to stop people from thinking in a discussion.  Going on the attack generally makes someone less likely to buy into your viewpoint.

Oh I hear ya.  I was just having a moment of general wishful thinking.  Of course, if EVERYONE started thinking, I probably wouldn't have a job.   :-)

Welcome.  If you've explored here you've seen the high tolerance for differing viewpoints.  This is quite unlike the majority of so called liberal sites.

Not trying to get off topic here, but as I was flipping through radio stations (the usual I listen to) this morning, I heard freakin' Geraldo Rivera on the Stephanie Miller show.

I don't think I'll be tuning into "At Large" anymore. My tolerance for this guy is gone. :p
