I feel like Moses. "Set my people free!"It will get fixed, at some point. The pictures and gifs not showing up definitely sucks.
lol... Dude, got you mixed up with different poster.anti-capitalist? when did i do that? or did you misspell anti-cop?
Ironic, since the only WR mod I know of with an actual history of trolling is the bearded guy on a bike.
don't care either way. I am just genuinely curious as to when a made a single anti-capitalist post, let alone multiple rants. And my anti-cop rants are most definitely not trollingHmm... proud to a shitposter and a troll?
lol... congrates I guess
lol. ok. i was pretty confused.lol... Dude, got you mixed up with different poster.
Edited.
I don't agree with playing games with numbers to make a point (though I think many do it--cherry pick or leave out context, etc) but I'll still say in a general sense I often like the perspective brings. There are even times I don't agree with him and I still appreciate that he's thought about it in a way I wouldn't have. Everyone looks for different things here I suppose, but I like it when someone makes a point about something and it's not how I'd have looked at it. And I think he does that often enough to warrant me saying I like him as a poster.My favorite exchange with him was when he said that SNAP usage had quintupled in eight years, and I pointed out that it was actually up 30% during that period. He said "it wasn't (the number it was at its peak)" and then insisted that it was right because it doubled over a 14 year period. That's when I first noticed that he seems to only understand direction and not magnitude. Noticed him making the same mistake a lot.
Found another thread quoting it, and here you go:
"I live in the US, and we went from like 9 million to 50 million on foodstamps. Over the last 8 years."
"Food stamp usage at the start of 2009 was about 33 million. And we were in a recession (and thus the use could have been predicted to rise, not because of an epidemic of lazy kids, but because lots of people lose their jobs in recessions). It then peaked in 2013 at under 48 million, and it's now at about 42 million and falling."
"What was I wrong about? There wasn't a record high of 48 million people on SNAP in 2013?"
Yikes!

My likes in this thread are completely worthless. Much like all my post.Sorry bud. Your "like" immediately reminded me of my omission.
I'll try to remember to tag you next time I see one.I don't think I've seen any surprising views from him (like anything that isn't just what Hannity would say). But I'd be open to looking at any exceptions.
Best Poster: @idrankyourbeer - Forced myself to pick someone I have opposing viewpoints with. We're opposite on almost everything. But the dude's engagement is topped by no one, writes amazingly long (sometimes incoherent) rants. Loves the word chud and uses it liberally when where it's not appropriate. Comes running like Pavlov's dog when summoned. Posters like him keep the place lively. It would be boring if it was an echo chamber of everyone agreeing with each other.
Worst Poster: ferrisjso - Love the ignorant anti-capitalist rants. lol
Best TS: @Arkain2K

I want a puke reaction, just your post though.maybe we need to implement some kind of like confirmation feature on this forum so that your likes will mean more.

Gotta squeeze those advertising dollars out of you. Mods are even having to see them.your avatar looks even better now that theyve made avatars even bigger to compensate. shame we can no longer get 50 posts per page after they took that away just to make up for the length of the pages now being taken over by the bigger avatars.
