Bob, you would be well served to say more by typing less.


Hard to combat complete points, as opposed to tiny character-limited tweets?

You know there are other mediums than a political debate forum to troll in. If lots of words bother you, those other mediums might be better suited. Or maybe the political picture thread. Or just go play some Diablo 2. Something more suited to your weak attention span.

If you don't want to read what I have to say, don't. No need to inform the world about it. You don't really matter enough that we care to know your every moment's decision. This isn't a twitter status update. Maybe try blogs feature, if that's your thing?

If your goal is to communicate effectively you need to know your audience. You aren't writing a novel, or a 500 page long book, you are posting to largely anonymous users on an internet forum. Nobody, even if they agree with you, is going to read your rambling walls of text to pick out the one or two points you've made.

If you're fine typing walls of text for nobody then by all means, continue.

You make a lot of assumptions. But rather than go into lengthy explanations you lack the attention span to read, I'm just going to point to the view count and post count of the average thread and tell you, "You have no fucking idea who's reading, and what they're paying attention to."

The person crying over posts being too long is talking about "triggered"? LOL

Internet socialists having a hard time reading more words than a tweet or headline, that's a good one to remember.

Any other brilliant insights?

you stumped him mentally so he just quit trying

he’s a massive hypocrite who claims to be “smart” and decries lack of concrete discussion here. yet he isn’t smart enough to feed himself without the assistance of state subsidy and his mommie-in-law, and he gets intellectually bamboozled by memes and posts longer than 3 sentences alike

oh and be careful about asking that user to pm you; he will use you as his personal “dear diary” outlet

That's okay, I just let my inbox fill and wait until they start sending me fg to get my attention. Free fg is good.

So I was looking, and it appears that slightly over half of these armchair reddit socialists support bringing about their ideals via revolution. Somewhere around 52%. That's really interesting.

I'm curious how many of that 52% support gun rights vs gun control? Any thoughts Thor? I suspect this'd be your area of expertise. Typically socialists are against it, but I dunno.
