Is this Sandbox too political?

Free to visit and post doesn't mean we're not responsible for the way it impacts culture though.

Is the political heavy bent that's crept in a drag on the culture? Is it possible or likely that it contributes to the lack of other discourse? Originally Posted by HDGristle

The way it impacts culture, the culture of what, paying a hooker to fuck and suck you?

What exact "Culture" are you referring to?

This is got me thinking that somehow you want us to be more woke or something.

I got five points for saying in a crude way that the Roonies are beholden to black players, and never did receive a reply about what other term than "black" should be used to describe players that are not white, or some other race other than black.

I was under the assumption that this was the place to let it all hang out and speak the truth, whether the other party LIKES your version of the truth on not, and now you want us to somehow take the blame for posting things you don't like?

No, Homie don't play that game, if YOU don't like it, change it, or, go play somewhere else, or, balance it out with your your own posts, but don't ask the rest of us to change shit because YOU don't like it.

Expecting morality on a board dedicated to a criminal activity, and, most of the time, also marital infidelity, is nuts, insane, and nothing is going to change the corrupted foundation the entire site is based upon.

Christ on a crutch, what do you think we are, ARISTOCRATS???????

I was just pointing out that Chizzy wasnt totally senile mentioning The Stump. Long live Chizzy Choo’s

Devo... board culture. The mutual environment in which we communicate and interact with each other and providers.

The Whiskey, Bourbon and Scotch thread is quite civil. Still young so time to devolve. DG and Bam have been posting in the same thread with no bickering. We're finding unusual common ground.

I'm just as interested in what a provider's thoughts are on whiskeys as in what yours might be. I'm open to finding spots of consensus where they exist. Seeing differences in tastes and preferences without the bickering when battle lines get drawn. I may get tired of which mashbill is best in 2 or 3 years, but we have to have some other fucking interests than just smacking our heads against a wall on politics that no one wants to move an inch on.

We can find consensus, or at least find a bit of common ground in so many ways that doesn't have to involve politics in 80% of the goddamn threads. I know I'm not alone in thinking that even if I'm the vocal minority among those remaining here.

Considering that I said this place feels more and more like the Stump, Bam disagreed and Chizzy called it the Stump, it certainly made my day

You have nothing to do with “board culture”. Nothing. So quit pretending and stop bumping your own thread. I have a Muscle Car thread that is far more interesting and important. So quit being a hypocrite and let other threads survive.


Maybe it’s time to pull the trigger?

We all contribute to board culture, Bam. Even you. The culture is the sum of its parts. Agree, disagree or find it boring. Idc

We can believe what we want regardless of who's thread it is.

It's whether we can find consensus that remains elusive. Originally Posted by HDGristle

Please - it is rare any subject in this or other forums gets much consensus. And that is the beauty of a discussion board - people can share the opinions and talk about what they like. Difference of opinions are natural

No one but you for some strange reason is looking for consensus

Consensus isn't morality. It's not uniformity. It's not lack of all conflict. It's just general agreement of the majority in the context I'm using it.

Right now, that consensus for the vocal is that the board isn't too political based on you, chizzy, Salty, Devo, Bam and Amish among the locals. And yet, that's not unexpected because you are the usual crowd here, lately.

That you find the discussion silly is not unexpected. But yet we continue on...

HDG if you want some non political discourse you could always petition to allow TaTa’s to return

Or find a way to get all the lurkers typing

In hindsight, I considered adding a poll but opted not to. Probably should have.

AG, do you really think he's not still here in some capacity? Is it safe to invoke him? Is it 3x like Beetlejuice or 5x like Candyman?

The answer to change the balance is simple, start more threads that arent political Originally Posted by AmishGangster

People try that. It’s usually hijacked and turned into more political bullshit.
