Originally posted by rogue06 View PostI wonder how many threads there would be if one was started about every single thing the TDS crowd did after Trump won in 2016. For instance not one thread about the vagina hatted kooks protesting the inauguration but every single incident. Every aspect. Every stunt. Each one getting a separate thread.
Would the interwebz have contained enough bandwidth?

Yes. I don't direct anyone at all in threads I start. They can evolve as they may.
Not false. You mentioned that this guy was funded. The people who attacked Rand Paul were also funded. That is the equivalency.
Again, I don't direct threads whatsoever. If people go off on a tangent, that's their choice. I can choose to ignore the tangent.

If the very first post is "I doubt it" without actually reading the link I posted then I'm going to call it out. Is that really such a draconian rule?
Your first post to this thread dismisses everything in the OP with "Isolated incident." and then immediately tries for false equivalency.
Am I really out of line for considering a two work blanket dismissal (just as you did in that other thread with 0 words) not in the spirit of the thread?

Again, your threads are too restrictive unless you want to deviate. I'm not interested in that.

I think you should do that. Or create some omnibus thread.

The issue was people not staying on topic. The same issue as I directed at Ronson. This thread is not about BLM. That thread was not about whatever nonsense equivalency people were bringing up. If you want to discuss my requests to stay on topic feel free to create a thread in the panic room or whatever it's called.
