Yep, posts that criticize them or Trump are removed. I can understand why they would remove the anti-Trump posts even though I think I would rather engage in dialogue with those people. I don't need any help in advocating my support of Trump. I don't need a safe space. The removal of posts that criticize them is literally them becoming Steve Huffman.

They're not people. They're bots. I'm not kidding. 4pol is overrun with them. It's so bad, you need to post a picture with text you want to discuss, while posting text to trick the bots into discussing something else.

The mods are doing the right thing. Delete the bots bullshit immediately. No dialog is going to convince a bot. It just spews more DNC bullshit.

Like a chat bot? If it can actually fool me into thinking I'm debating a real person, it makes me want to engage it even more.

If it's clearly just software, I would just ignore it.

Spamming is an issue however. It's like shouting above everybody when someone else is trying to speak. I would suggest a timer system in that case. For every 5 downvotes, you have to wait until 1 minute to post. Up to a max of 5 minutes.

Then you'll love pol, head on over to 4chan and drink from the bot firehose.

They need to keep the negativity level down in general while the community grows, or people won't come back. Later, when we are stronger, they can be more flexible.

Reminds me of the politicians. If you only give us the majority. The majority is too small, if you only give us more seats.

This is why power corrupts.

I'd prefer if it just hid the comments as long as the comments are respectful.

Do you not know where to find these people? I'll give you a hint, it's not here. All of reddit is infested with them. Pick any sub and go "engage" with them over there. Or pick any of the other havens they have like twitter, facebook, instagram, etc. This is the only place on the internet where we don't have to deal with those asshats. It's our club and we're not going to open it up to a bunch of commies so that you have someone to talk to. YOU HAVE THE REST OF THE INTERNET FOR THAT.
