The servile mindset is a sad, sad thing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Why on Earth would anyone feel opposed to somewhere else seeking independence anyway? Suppose someone told you that Wales fancied running their own affairs. Why would you give a shit? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's extremely sad, over a decade of it in Scotland and people are still confused why we're still locked up in our houses for the past year. The boot licking that occurs on this forum is nauseating isn't it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's worse than that and the amount of utter bilge on here has been concomitant with what I'd hope is but a temporary downturn in forum quality. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you listen to the auld yins, the forum's been shite since it stopped being Falkirk and St Mirren fans laughing at each other I think the idea is to get the trolls coalescing in the Politics subforum to stop them polluting the rest of the site. In a few years, there'll be one guy left dishing out bad faith arguments to the void, but completely unable to stop himself from biting to his own posts when nobody else replies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst threads on the politics forum are a massive step up from the Coronavirus thread in GN. I’d assume 99% of the posters are trolls if I didn’t know better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the impression that most folk still posting there are only a few YouTube videos away from going full conspiracy nut and asking Laurence Fox to stand in their constituency. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixu/Pato has put this more eloquently about the Covid thread and politics subforum, but yeah, we're pretty much all just pissing in the wind. At one point I wondered just how much time some people have invested fact checking on a Scottish hot food and beverage forum or going far enough to constantly sign up over and over again when previous accounts get banned or they humiliate themselves, but at the end of the day everyone is on here doing their own little thing. If people are happy frothing at the mouth multiple times a day on the covid thread then great, probably best to just let 'em go wild with it, remember to not get too invested or worked up yourself if you see something and think "hang on im not sure thats right" and maybe have a nice cup of tea or something.

I've dipped in a few times but I always end up wondering "how do these folk think people are catching this?" Despite an unimaginable interruption to our lives about 10 million people in the UK are estimated to have caught it so far, so it's clearly somewhat infectious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s social media at its most insidious. A small group of people reinforcing each other’s delusions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
