i don't think i've ever seen a dedicated politic thread so hey lets see if we can get something going.
know just some general guidelines. as always, respect other peoples opinions no matter how much you may oppose or flat out hate it. ripping the poster or their opinion is, as always, NOT acceptable. disagreeing and discussing however is totally fine. please have some back up points for your counterpoints. don't just say "well fuck obama cause he's muslim." or something like that.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
and for your own sake, know your facts before you rip a politician.
what i personally want to start with is the Culture Wars, IE: Gay or Straight, Black or White, Male of Female, Republican or Democrat, Catholic or Muslim. i personally believe that is one the biggest detriments and distractions of modern American society. it acts as a way to separate our society and prevent us from being a unified country. i think we all know Americans are easily distracted with stupid shit that doesn't matter (see Honey Boo Boo).
the best thing that could happen to this country would be for the Culture Wars to DIE. we are all human beings first and everything else second, third, so on and so on.
