You played the random 30 year old accusation game in 2018. You die by the random 30 year old accusation game in 2020.

I partially agree with you but currently it's either an image, a link or text. You can't do all 3.

While true for the post, why not put them in the comments?

Yes he could have done that. But we also support each other on fact checks and making sure were all informed as best as we can so I don't mind having done it.

OP’s could just post text and links to the first comment of the thread.

True, but there can be three separate posts that cover the same topic.

And if there were, I’d expect the link post to have the most upvotes.

Unfortunately all I ever see are memes, and the resulting lack of quality discussions.

If I tell a joke at a party, I dont provide sourced stories to show why the joke is funny.....its not as funny that way! I assume that the moderator who saw the post, threw a sticky on it because they knew what it meant. Nothing is "Rapidly Devolving" around here.

that's not a 1:1 comparison, at all. not even remotely the same thing as saying a phrase or single sentence and just assuming everyone knows what the hell you're talking about. that's moron town.

If I'm "Moron Town", you are "Poopy Face"..... Oh sorry, I forgot to source why that is supposed to be funny because I should ALWAYS assume you are a dry humorless twit who hasnt read the news for 3 days. Here's why this was supposed to be funny....because you called me a silly name like we were 2nd graders, so I called you a silly name like we were 2nd graders. Would have been funnier if I wrote just the first sentence and nothing else, and THAT is my whole point.

Yeah, I got burned by that once. I used the "Even though there is no evidence, the seriousness of the charge is what matters." quote and someone who had never heard it from Tom Foley assumed I meant it rather than meant the sarcasm it richly deserved.

Your joke analogy does not align with my description of the issue.

It is more like coming home from work and your wife saying “Honey you won’t believe what he said, it was so awful and I am so upset and he is such a jerk.”

For you to naturally wonder “who are you talking about.”

And her going on an on about “him” yet still failing to identify the actual who, leaving you scratching your head and becoming less interested in her story by the minute.

I wasnt responding to your comment. My comment was 10 hrs before yours and was responding to a comment that has evidently been deleted now.

While I did mention mods tangentially, the focus was on community trends.

Same issue when the OP screenshots a headline and submits that, but fails to link the actual article.

Lazy journalist, lazy readers, lazy OPs. I find it very disappointing.

Except OP never reappears in the comments with the source.

Some random reply does, and it is buried under dozens of upvoted posts that also contribute little to the conversation.

So I upvote the rare post that actually has value, alongside like 5 other people that actually care about the signal to noise ratio.

I’ll be here for the long haul, but this site has a long way to go with regards to fostering quality discussion.

Spez: the random source guy is the top comment now, good!

I actually do believe her though.... it's not really "random". She tried to get help back then, but no one cared.

Agreed, and unlike the Kavanaugh accuser she told people who state they remember her telling them.

I believe her in that it's Biden so he probably got a deep sniff. But I don't believe her as in sexual harassment and also it's WAY to long ago! No evidence BUT her word.

I doubt anyone here will actually straight up say they believe her 100%. At most people will say it's plausible cause it's fucking Kid Sniffer Mush Brain Biden were talking about, but 30 years old is 30 years old!

However I will hold Democrats to their own standards. I don't give a fuck about her 30 year old accusation. But I will burn them with their own hypocrisy!

I 100% agree with fucking the left on their own double standard terms.

Democrats always get a pass on this stuff. See: Governor Blackface

According to their game, you have to conclude that she’s telling the truth. Once its absolutely concluded that she lied, the hanging cloud of doubt will be in the minds of the true believers. Let them have their own taste of #metoo for a bit.
