Invitation from Conservative Underground
Okay, before you report me and insist this be deleted, please read on.
As I said in another post, I lurk over at CU now and then, mostly to see how low they will go to bash DUers. A few times I've actually seen an argument in defense of a specific position, but mostly their comments seem to be personal (what idiots we are) instead of directed at the issue involved. Please read on.
Now they have issued an invitation for us to come over and discuss stuff. As the fellow who issued the invitation put it, "to have some fun." The responses to his invitation have been... okay, I'll say it... pretty insulting to us: personal put-downs instead of comments on how we disagree or how an exchange of ideas might be useful. Which got me to thinking.
Granted DU and CU are both chat rooms, i.e., places to vent and commisserate with like-minded folks from the privacy of a username. I don't have a clue what would constitute a "serious political discussion forum," but neither one of them seem to be one. What IS noticeable is that nowadays people (and I see it here too) seem to be indulging in a lot of personal put-downs and spitball-throwing instead of addressing the issues involved. "If you don't agree with me, you're a ****ing asshole" and such. Maybe it's just easier to call someone a moron instead of responding to what he/she said.
There's a huge difference between saying that somebody's specific comment was galaxy-class beyond-****ing-shitbrained-stupid, and calling that individual, personally, a ****ing asshole. One addreses the comment and the other addresses the person.
Over the past few years, and especially over the past year and a half, a lot of people seem to have lost the ability to tell the difference.
Reminds me of name-calling back in grammar school. I thought I had left that behind.
If someone has time, feel free to copy the hilarious responses. Still there and not deleted after 60+ replies.

51. Look deeper, what they are doing is profiling us and preparing for a physical war against us
individually.
Be very careful.
ooops, they're onto us, now we have to scrap the entire plan

Sorry folks, busy Labor Day. Even with relentless rain ruining my outdoor plans.
But have the entire DUmp thread saved in case it does get zapped. Used to be a time that such a reference to CU or the Cave would be deleted almost immediately. Shall check back later on, my friends.

Lots of intelligent and well thought out replies over there! :lmao:

31. "I don't go into sewers"
Well I went to a gun centric sewer the other day, just to take the pulse.. Well what do you know they are quoting and adding links to the DU!! Of course to make fun of us "libatards" and PROVE how wrong we are.... And yes they are talking civil war... Just look at the crazy liberal that shot up that good republican steve scalice. Bless their hearts...
They may be catching on to us! :thatsright: :rant:

6. If any conservative could do a reasoned debate based on critical thinking, they
would not be a conservative in the first place. I took on the republicans and libertarians in the old political crossfire forum before it was shut down and believe me, I never lost a debate as soon the opposition spiraled into personal attacks. They simply can not handle facts or reality, period. **** them. My fun is working to take back our country.
beachbumbob is a legend in his own mind!! :rant: :rant: :rant:

8. Haven't been on CU, but have seen responses on some other sites and they are horrendous.
My husband reads Drudge to see what the other side is saying and shows me some of the stuff. It's hair singeing horrible, almost exclusively! When fairly moderate folks respond, they get absolutely killed and it's taken very personally. I tell him I won't pollute my life with their hate and asked him months go to not share the sludge with me. Besides the whole title is a lie, the party of drumpf isn't conservative, it's activity oligarchs and russia repugs only - populated by the most ignorant, racist and horrible people in America.
No thanks!!
This stupid cow hasen't looked in a mirror in a while! :lmao: :loser:

Wow, that has precisely been my experience with Libtards!!! What a coincidence! :-)
I used to be a member at the website supporting the WIlliam Strauss and Neil Howe books on Generation Theory (the website is now defunct). The liberals deliberately twisted things into bizarre contortions, claimed that facts were not facts because of the source (i.e. any source that was not Marxist was not to be trusted and therefore the fact was dismissed as untrue), and at times just instantly began with sneering personal attacks.

This country was founded upon the concept of individualism, not collectivism. The primitives are interested in collectivism, which is the very opposite of freedom. If people decide individually to work collectively, that's fine. But to want the gov't to compel individuals to cooperate collectively in areas that are not traditional functions of gov't (i.e. universal healthcare), or to want a country that doesn't uphold traditional moral values, is the very opposite of freedom. The further left the USA turns, the less it deserves to exist. The country they want can't last, therefore it's not worth the effort.
Besides, I'm more intelligent than all the primitives combined, so except as entertainment value and pointing and laughing at their stupidity, they bore me.

Yes the democrat party as a whole is really super duper smart. I mean how else can one think that the wage gap is super important stand that we should open or country to super low wage earners to keep tomatoes cheap?
Which as always begs the question, does one have to be mentally ill to vote democrat or does voting democrat make one mentally ill. Either way...

Hey DUmmies...and yes you LuvLoogie....guess what...I voted for Cruz I'm hated by both sides.
Suck it like Kapernick.
And you better be careful...there are Mods and members of the MIRT team that are long time moles at $kimmers Island for all you know you've given one or more of them a Gold Star when they asked. The next reprimand might just be from one of them.

The irony of them lurking here to know that we lurk there flies right over their pointy heads.

Remember Andy...*snort* yes remember the money he scammed you DUmmies out of. Remember it wasn't us or outing his money laundering that killed him too.
Someone remind WillPitt I left him unable to answer simple questions about the whole scam when he showed up at CU.
Yeah...remember that.

Bless their hearts. They will never learn the rule: don't go full retard. Of course, I guess they just can't help it.

How can they avoid going ‘full retard’ when they’re full retards to begin with?

At DU the Hate bus is never late. IF they had one operating brain cell in their heads they would realize that the BS they are shoveling is a lie even about Scamdy. Txradioguy is right.

Not to worry coach.
It's best to forget victims as soon as possible.

Why yes dummie, yes we are. We don't even bother to hide it now. Once Der TrumpenFuhrer took control, the circle became complete and there is no reason to deny it.
Be afraid dummie, be very afraid.

Naw. They view everything from their perspective. They believe we will act like they do... sit around and type up nonsensical rants on a board, catch a buzz and then go to bed. They are too stupid to realize that the main camp sites are in Colorado and Colorado has legal weed for a reason. :evillaugh:

The sad part of that Coach.... is that we seem to be the only ones that remember the man. I seriously doubt if 1 percent of the posters over there even have a clue... and the one percent that do don't give a rat's ass him and never did.
