Again, you should be outraged at the conduct of our Trumptards, if this bothers you so much.

 

I would suggest, however, that you simply stay away from the Kitchen Sink if you don't like what goes on there.

 

 

The Kitchen Sink is not for your STINK!

I know you're upset, Marty. What I can't understand is WHY. You don't have to visit the Sink if you don't want to.

 

If you do, you might notice that it's a lot more peaceful since the most prolific poster there stormed off in a huff, he says, never to return.

Kevin misses the point.  Keven and Todd have managed to monopolize KS for the purpose of making everyone else feel bad about themselves and their viewpoints.  That is not a recipe for success in life and in getting one's point across if that is an objective.   Think of successful people you know.  How did they get there?  By making everyone they come in contact with feel comfortable in their presence even when opinions differ.  They make their points in ways that are understood even if not agreed with.   One can then ponder that different opinion and possibly see the other's reasoning though not necessarily change one's own.  Reasoned discourse, a hallmark of intelligent people.  Not stupid repetitive insults.

 

Even non-political topics become the personal playing fields of Kevin and Todd just for their enjoyment of making other people feel insulted, disrespected and irrelevant, regardless of the topic.  Yes, anyone can choose to not visit Kitchen Sink, but because the purpose IS for topics of general interest, it isn't fair that every reply is so ugly and insulting as to chase LVA customers away.  I'm surprised it is tolerated, but I don't run the show.

 

EXAMPLE:  A recent topic was started about the death of a revered composer and his works featured in motion pictures.  Several others posted about their favorite composers/motion pictures.  Then came the insulting posts.  It didn't take long for that post to completely disappear, which is unusual. I assume one of our trolls must have posted something even the devil wouldn't allow in his dark place below.  Given the filthy stuff that is allowed to remain, I can't even imagine how bad it must have been. 

Might as well just rename the kitchen sink to "Deranged Trump Hater's Club".    Kevin and Todd make 95% of the posts now.  Most of their posts are insulting and nasty.  Have been for a year.   Almost every thread is now an Anti-Trump screed.    It's too bad Anthony wasn't serious about cleaning it up.  All he'd have to do is read the past threads for 20 minutes to see who the troublemakers have been.  It's not rocket science.  

O2B - well said.

 

kevin recently posted an alleged post me from which he made up.  This blatent lie as well as a post about wishing Republicans were dead was deleted by the moderators

It's strange how you're not attacking David Miller, Boilerman, Tom, Charles, etc.---all of whom are rabid conservatives and attack and insult anyone who disagrees with them. But I guess, in your mind, THAT'S OK--because they're Trumpers. Everything you object to about me and Todd is done tenfold by them.

 

Also, let me point out--we're not "monopolizing" the Sink. Antbody who wants to can post there. But as far as that goes---David Miller was starting 90% of the threads before he stalked away in a huff a few days ago. He was upset that everybody didn't agree with the propganda he posted 10-15 times a day--speaking of "monopolizing."

 

What's really happening is that the Sink has been an alt-right propaganda outlet (not by design), and that starts arguments.

And the Sink was nothing but a continual anti-Obama hate forum for eight years.

 

We know what your ideological leanings are, and your hypocrisy shows when you applaud some things and object to others, depending solely on whether they align with your politics or not. You want "nasty"? Call anyone who opposes your orange god "deranged." Yeah, right. Like someone would have to be deranged to hate him.

 

I could respect your position more if you didn't cheer and applaud every time one of your ideological bros posts something hateful. You don't object to nastiness--you object to anti-Trump speech.
