CD, The most inward looking site on the internet.
On checking the recent history of the main participants of this site I note it consists mainly of a juvenile rabble of mudslinging degenerates whose sole purpose is to lambas6t each other. This site reflects what can happen to a society when left unregulated and the bully boys are allowed to run amok.
This site has all but imploded due to the rabble and their alts having junior grade squabbles among themselves. On checking the list of issues up for debate I note that 90% of them consist of internal bickering.
No interest in the enormous range of issues affecting the world such as the impact of climate change and the Chinese cyber spying on western industrial secrets along with the Russian and Brazilian computer attacks on the software of western public services such as the U.K's national health service and America's C.I.A.

That's right buddy. I just wanna make techno and super fruity hip hop remixes. You should try it sometime. Relax, and take the stick out of your ass.
Confirmation, if confirmation were needed that this site is infested with the dregs of the cyber gutter. Instead of accepting my comments as constructive criticism you, as the King of Smut and mindless vulgarity have predictably just substantiated and reinforced the factual nature my statement. Thank you.
Like the proverbial cuckoo you appear to have achieved your goal of ousting everyone of substance who wished to engage in reasoned discourse and, along with your legions of puppet accounts have this site almost to yourself.
You are not at all wrong about this site, it is one of the most congested gutters of the internet. It is clogged with the chemical waste produced by it's members. Everyone here pretty much thinks they're the only intelligent person here, and has given up on trying to "reason" with their opponents. We are a closed community of trolls and angry sociopaths who wish we could just kill each other IRL and get it over with but instead we just talk shit on the internet.
I am by no means an exception to this. You are wrong about one thing though, "everyone of substance" has not been ousted because there never was anyone "of substance".
I have to comment that I don't consider myself to be particularly intelligent but do enjoy pitting my limited intellect against anyone who is genuinely interested in participating in purposeful and meaningful debate.
This site was a big disappointment to me but, without insulting your intelligence by patronizing you, and assuming you're not one of Nom's alts,, you are like a breath of fresh air and represent clear evidence that all is not lost within CD. Maybe, just maybe this potentially brilliant site could rise like the Phoenix from the ashes of devastation caused by the likes of the Norm, Burri..., etc.This Forum has, in my opinion, one of the best formats and user friendly layouts on the internet.
No, that's not the reason. You're the joker in the pack and it takes a clever person to act the jester. You've a talent for seeing the humour in the most dire situations.
I bet you could even find something droll about Brexit and the impeachment fiasco.
Well..., the thing is that people value entertainment above all else. That's why actors and professional athletes make more than a brain surgeon. And so..., Brexit and the impeachment hearings is nothing more than pure entertainment. Are you not entertained yet ;)
This site is a microcosm of our society. So many people have become self absorbed children spending their time looking for any responses to their vulgar rants. Looking to the next tweet on their cell phone, etc. all while living off other's hard work and sweat.
The only political issues they get involved with are those having to do with free stuff. They believe they are entitled to other's money. These are the Millenials that will shape our future. The future looks very bleak, and if these Socialist Democrats beat Trump, the nation will deteriorate at a much faster clip.
It's only a matter of time when the low end Government dependents out number the workers and the collapse of the greatest nation on Earth will be complete.
The Left encourages and panders to those who live irresponsible lives because they represent votes!
When half our Government is doing all in it's power to create more Government dependents, we are lost.
Be careful. FW enjoys the echo chambers of ultra-evangelism. He even calls people lefty loonies and Democrat supporters when they are not even American, and have the same views on abortion (his favourite topic), as he does.
I would steer clear if you are looking for healthy, honest, logical, reasoned, progressively enlightening, mutually intelligible debate.
Only a highly revered academic such as yourself would have noticed my 'deliberate mistake. The number 6 was included in the word lambast as it is used as a symbol of sin and imperfection in the Bible.
Your lightweight attempt to lure me into one of your obscenity drenched exchanges has failed miserably. Try dragging yourself out of the gutter by recognising the truth contained in this thread as others have done.
What does it say about you? That you believe this to be "the most inward looking site on the internet", yet you are posting here? Do all the outward looking sites presumably not want you?
And here exactly is the inbickering he is talking about. What it says about him is that he appreciates the value of debate about pertinent issues and wishes to see a debate website run with the administration required to achieve that.
What is it they say: you must first accept that a problem exists in order to redress it.
How about establishing moderators? Right now it's just a mess with more debates trying to slam people then debates of actual substance. Maybe even establishing a debate of the week or month kind of thing?
That's an absolutely terrible idea. Every website which ever does that ends up the same way. It turns into a competition to see who can befriend the mods and have all their enemies banned. The mods are never neutral, so they punish people based on their political, religious or social beliefs and then lie about it when questioned. Essentially, you are hiring trolls to police trolls.
You are one of the worst users on the site excon. As I have already objectively concluded, you are a hater who is both racist and genocidal towards anyone espousing far-left politics and you have an absolutely delusional idea of right and wrong.
"Truth is, EVERYBODY who isn't white votes for the Democrats. Jews, of course, aren't white.. We're Semitic.. That's a LONG ways from white.. Frankly, if I was white, I'd kill myself.."
I've been trying to think about it. Honestly I'd be more inclined to trust someone who hasn't made debates attacking other members, or spammed the site with multiples of the same debate. Perhaps moderators should all have to agree if one of them flags a debate that isn't in the spirit of the debate. In which case I think I'd choose a few whose view's differ from time to time but who have remained partial and fair. I'd love to toss out some names but I truly have no idea who plays who in here with multiple accounts. Those I would trust to not abuse it have mostly left but I think it would have to boil down to those who haven't been reduced to immediately attacking a person instead of an idea and none of us are innocent of that really. That's why I think you should choose, say like, three or five partial moderators and they all need to agree to either ban or remove a debate.

There aren't enough trustworthy people for 5. Any kind of combination of 5 people on CD would lead to the mods almost always not having unanimous agreement about a ban. It should definitely be myself, you and SunTzu who are the only mods.
