Hmmmmm how very odd... It's almost like the criteria morphs and changes with each situation based on other political factors and leanings
lol, every person who puts their neck on the line gets this

Trump gets called the worst things by this forum and do you know why because people know that on here everyone will agree with them so they feel emboldened to be vile and mean

Its just mob rule tbh

Wah wah the kids are ganging up on me and my friend Trump!

For one, your numbers are off, I can think of at least 6 SD regulars who are largely pro-trump and probably a similar number who are vocally anti-trump (as in, make posts longer than a few sentences) with another handful in the middle. SD doesn't have very many hugely active members? For example, in this thread there are three clearly pro Trump members and only two who are not. You are perceiving a numbers advantage that simply doesn't exist. Don't confuse the weakness of your troops for being outnumbered .

For two, even if you were outnumbered, the strength of your argument shouldn't rely on how many people are backing it up. It's a linear forum, someone reading the threads top to bottom will see and read your post if it is worth reading, you can't be "drowned out" and your argument, if it's worth it's salt, should stand on its own two feet no matter how many people are countering it.

Some of us aren't counting. I for one will happily engage in a thread where everyone you think is on "my side" is banned from posting, and you can have ALL of your pro Trump "mob". You'll probably still be whining about mob rule because it's an easy excuse for a weak argument .

You are beginning to sound like DR with your pigeon hole obsession

No one pigeonholing here except you LT . If you believe that one big "side" is ganging up on your "side" because there are "more of them".
