Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
npr is the only one that seems to have a clean bill of health, as far as I know. btw it is often labeled as "leftist" by trumpers

Both me and IIRC, DDM have been called Trumpers and we supported both Bernie and Tulsi.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
Hey, we're mostly civil in the OTF, we already get Bash flaming everyone in sight and constantly baiting Surtur (which the mods entirely seem to not care about), and we don't need any more of it! We actually work hard on maintaining an active and friendly community there for the most part, other than the GDF flame wars spilling over.
The main issue in the GDF from what I can tell as mostly an outsider is Whirly. He makes thread after thread about the same race baiting stuff, and actively ignores anyone trying to start real discussion in favour of further baiting the usual people.
TI started doing the same thing in response, adding fire to the flames, but he wasn't doing anything that Whirly wasn't already doing. Also one can have a normal discussion with TI, it's much harder to get Whirly to engage in a debate without him diverting or ignoring. Either way, TI shouldering the blame for this is abject dishonesty.
I like Whirly, but he's been going full guns with the shitposting lately and then acts as if he isn't the main player in making this place a dumpster fire, and instead complains about 'gaslighting' and acting like everyone who isn't him, Rob, Bash and Adam are literal Nazis. It's silly.
