Martin. You sad creature. Are you new here?
People here are on one of two teams, Red Team or Blue Team.
Why would you want to 'debate' anyone from the opposite team?
People come here to confirm their own Belief system.
Hence, you 'thread ban' the other team so you don't actually have to have any facts or evidence as you blather on about your own unique point of view.

(shaking head) Did you think this Political Forum was about 'Debate'?

Looks to me like that thread eliminated a bunch of idiot responses ... NONE of which would have qualified as debate, just an opportunity to add nonsensical tripe to ordinarily intelligent intercourse.

Hence why you should be thread banned.

Wait! Grumpy's name WASN'T on the List?

I don't recall seeing him thread banned. I guess they find him to be an adorable old fart.

Conservatives don't want to debate anymore, or have elections. They want a 9-0 Supreme Court, and gerrymandered majorities in Congress, and a President appointed for life as long as his name is Trump.

Discourse? A marketplace of ideas? Quaint memories of a time when we actually had a democracy. Which they also argue is not what America is.

This would fit in the War Zone, Complaint Department or even Off Topic forum. This does not qualify as a current event for the purpose of the Current Events forum.

If you want to cry, at least have the decency to do it in the appropriate forum.

Good point. Conservatives are usually the ones banning the liberals. But...really doesn't matter.

Wusses love to mass ban people for disagreeing with them.

Neither should a debate thread qualify that precludes debate by banning everyone who might not bless your comment.

Perhaps you were banned because you don’t know the proper use of “who’s” and “whose.”

Look at it this way. Are the people banning you the ones you even want to have a discussion with?

The moderators make that call, not you, Marty.

You can still Thank or Groan a post if you're threadbanned.

I just simply create another thread with no thread bans.

You should try making fewer trollshit posts. You might find you get threadbanned less.

People always tell me that. They are never able to show how any of my posts are trolling.
