Or try to communicate reason to them, logic, science.

I guess you have to join. Do they screen?

Have you ever gone to one and sounded off?
And do you get hate e-mail from them??

19. I wonder what they think of this Pope.
Do they think it's just "petty gossip"?

29. Then don't listen to them
I'll never understand the bizarre joy people get from willing allowing certain personalities to annoy them.

5. I hate it when they come here trolling. It seems kind of rude.
I like to think liberals have better manners.

10. We do
The horse race pundits say that niceness and manners are one of the problems with the left wing.
Sometimes I will send individual e-mails.
I wish I could e-mail last summers weeping "I want my country back!" lady.

It has all the charm of a Bates family reunion.

That's how they know you're not one of them and you are quickly banned.

14. Not worth the effort - they have their own delusional world, would not
listen to "reason", and would not know "logic" if it bit them on the ass.
And Science is anti-god.

17. You ask that as if you're posing two alternatives.
Should We Go Onto Repug Sites and F**k with their Heads?
Or try to communicate reason to them, logic, science.

Trying to communicate with them using logic, reason, and science is f**king with their heads.

22. I love your answer! I am the straight man to your joke without trying.
This happens to me a lot. Any how, I didn't even think of that kind of head fuck,

I was thinking along the lines of:

"Is 'Critical Thinking' a Communist Plot? Why Should We HAVE Hear Both sides?"

"I Punched an Old Progressive Man and it Felt Good!"

"Why do Democrats say we HAVE to Keep Mayonnaise in the Fridge?"

"Shouldn't We Attack China? They ARE Communists and they Have Our Money!"

"Sara Palin is Pregnant with John McCain's Baby and I think it's Great!"

"The Michigan Militia Should Not be FORCED to Have Government Appointed Lawyers. They Should Let Them be Their OWN Lawyers!"



It's like what if the "Obama is a MUslim!!" lady at John McCain's pre-election rally, was actually a brilliant actress comedian of the left wing?

Glad you liked the answer. :hi:

Actually I could have cut out "using logic, reason, and science" and given an even shorter answer.

"Trying to communicate with them is f**king with their heads."

21. I refuse to give them the satisfaction
Edited on Tue Mar-30-10 11:06 PM by Cirque du So-What
No matter how much ill will is contained in a troll's droppings, it's still a form of validation. Would trolls bother with their website unless they were on to something worthwhile? If they were just a bunch of irrelevant jagoffs, who would take the time to register in order to start pestering them? The fact that DU gets so many trolls tells me that wingnuts see this place as a threat - a worthwhile investment of time & energy in order to attempt disruption. I'm going out on a limb here to theorize that Democrats are less likely to troll RW boards, which they see as irrelevant because they're mostly populated by worthless sacks of shit who bloviate about all manner of violent retribution they would unleash on us heathens, but are too lazy & cowardly to act out their sick fantasies. Then again, it may just be that the RW has more fucking assholes who get bored in mommy's basement.

26. No. That is cruel treatment to animals.
Now if they come HERE...er don't feed the trolls...

:looking over shoulder:

Come here, listen - it is okay to make them nibble just a little bit. Over here they kinda short circuit and the motherboard does a reboot...or their heads explode. Either way I can't tell but going and beating up on their helpless brains seems wrong.

You wouldn't beat up someone bigger than yourself, unless he stepped into your sandbox and kicked sand in your face. So yeah, that kinda defense is okay. GO head.

Just don't feed the trolls.

28. What's the point?
If you go there to fuck with their heads it just reinforces in their small minds that they're right, and it says a lot about what kind of person you are in that you enjoy tormenting people to make yourself feel good and think of politics as nothing more than a team sport.

You can't reason with the unreasonable. No one ever listens to anyone else's opinion when their mind is firmly closed. Banging heads doesn't bring about a meeting of the minds.

That just encourages them to troll our board(s). They have as much right to sit in their bubbles as we do.

36. I don't see any reason to waste time doing so
They're too busy spamming their uninformed Beck-inspired nonsense to any comment form they can find. There is no reason or logic to what they feel and no way to convince them otherwise. You can't have an argument with people who are on unemployment or disability railing against the very benefits that they're taking advantage of.

37. YOU Guys are RIGHT! Thanks for the Spanks
I don't really want to go to RW sites.

But if the "Obama is a MUslim!!" lady at John McCain's pre-election rally, IS actually a brilliant actress comedian of the left wing, I hope she never tells.

Sadly, I think she's real.
