Arguing about voting, purity, and RIP John Lewis

Oh good 6ix is here to rehash the fight that ended 30 hours ago.

And I guess this is the point where ā€œpurity testā€ is retired as some inane bullshit smoothbrains say, devoid of any precise and practical definition.

If you want to say certain things and people are above criticism, because said criticism causes some uncomfortable cognitive dissonance and worldview questioning, then, well, just say that you stupid cowards.

Thatā€™d at least be something real and human.

Soā€¦ Youā€™re gonna go with the play that you donā€™t know how an internet message board forum worksā€¦ Whilst posting on an internet message board forum.

Ok.

All kinds of phrases are routinely used in lieu of, and often something more like a declaration against, being thoughtful or at least having to express a real point. ā€œpurity testā€ is definitely one of them.

Some people donā€™t read the forum daily. Whatā€™s the statute of limitations for posting about a topic?

There isnā€™t one obviously but his mo is the same every time. He only ever comments when there is a fight. He comes in days after it is over and posts a bunch of stuff meant to inflame the fight again.

He knows what he is doing. Itā€™s not subtle.

I honestly donā€™t care much itā€™s just silly.

Thatā€™d only be applicable if the fight ended and and youā€™d conceded and apologized. That doesnā€™t seem to be the case.

For example, hereā€™s a statement:

John Lewis fought for just the right amount of civil rights that would allow John Lewis to become a rich politician in the south and spent the last 30 years of his life making damned sure no other progress was achieved.

Confirm/deny?

Grunching, but is this a serious post?

Iā€™m not playing your dumb game.

And yet you replied the first time.

Ah, yes, that dumb game of discussing a topic on an internet message board forum.

Iā€™d be happy to discuss with you if you added a new angle instead of just reposting other peopleā€™s posts with a some version of lol.

Iā€™ll admit they are assuming sometimes but always content free. The forum version of a marmaduke cartoon. Sure you raise a small smile from time to time but forget them instantly.

Youā€™ve earned one internet point. 9 more and you increase to the level of bro. Keep playing. Best of luck.

For the TLDR folks, this is a great thread. Tab talks shit about a civil rights hero who just died and admits heā€™s voting for Trump and 6 comes in 3 years later and says something about something.

Oops not a reply @ you, clovis

where did he say he would vote for trump or are you just lying?

I thought it was clear heā€™s not voting Biden. Thatā€™s voting for Trump.

oh so the 50% of the country that doesnā€™t vote is voting for trump too? got it

Are you arguing that people that abstain are doing so because their life is too good? Not enough lols in the world
