ChiefsPlanet Keep your political bullshit in DC and out of all other forums - Page 10

**DaFace** · 06:25 PM

We're seeing an uptick in people randomly throwing out political bullshit in threads in the Lounge. Don't. Report people who do. They'll get booted from the thread for a first offense and more than that if they continue.

The end.

Due to continued reported posts and general frustrations around inserting politics into absolutely everything, and idea came up to restrict people to DC, much like the Romper Room.

So, everyone gets three thread bans as warnings, and after that will get a vacation in DC (the other forums will be view only). The thread bans and DC vacations will be posted in the transparency thread.

Just like several other rules, there's of course gray area and it doesn't really matter where the line is drawn, because those who can keep politics out of the Lounge will never come close to the line and those who can't will insist on running right up to it.

Generally speaking, we're talking about political opinions or blatantly inserting politics into a thread that isn't even a little bit on topic, or otherwise leaking DC BS into the Lounge or other forums.

How ****ing hard can it be to just not talk politics in the lounge?

Evidently it very difficult for some and not difficult at all for many.

So in short, keep it to DC.

I guess you're welcome to come over to DC and do so. Perhaps you could start by listing all the white athletes who refused to visit the White House during the previous occupant's tenure.

Jesus you're an idiot. Do you think they'd be refusing to visit Mitt Romney? Did they refuse to visit Bush? Hmmmmm.... what could be different this time?

This is why politics is not a good idea in the lounge. You are so invested in your own side that you are totally blind to the fact that the media on your side has mastered faux outrage over the past 30 years.

It's not just one side, it's both sides. Keeping politics out of the lounge keeps nonsense like this from polluting chiefs talk.

He reminds me of Donald Trump when he does crazy things and they end up working out.

The whole thread is about bitching about politics, you ****ing dumbass.

I decided your next post was even stupider - so I edited mine to quote that instead.

Always love it when mindless drones talk about anybody else being blind to things.
