Is this for real, or just someone's hyperventilation?

How can I avoid "TODAY' when people keep quoting from it.  This is just one of their little heart rending  stories that have no meaning in the real world.

It's suppository hypothetical. If the story is correct then it could happen. If the story is correct then the problem can probably be corrected with a directive.

Yeppers, you can always count on Weird to bring you negative news; fake or not.  Let's see, Trump defeated Hillary, is taking bids to build the wall, nominated a conservative justice, nominated a fairly conservative cabinet and is ramping up national security and intending to increase our military.  Perhaps Trump Derangement Syndrome is settling in with him?
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

And planning to engage in protectionist economic policies worthy only of Bernie Sanders, starting a real nasty fight with one of our bigger trading partners over stupidities, and ....   Trump ain't the God or Idol you make him out to be.

She has given you a LOT of room to carry out your campaign in here. I  would be careful about calling her out.

My campaign? I'm posting articles. Is GBR against personal attacks or not?

Hyperventilation- an excellent description of what we are seeing on the news each night. Everyone knows me as not being a big fan of Trump, but this over the top nightly attacks on what the administration is trying to get done is making me sick.

Word.

@Weird Tolkienish Figure

Last year time I saw such whiner douchebag "I'm telling MOM!" loser stuff as pinging mods to a thread was during the Trumpanzee Paid Troll takeover of RimJob's website.

What a total frikken LOSER.

Just the opposite. Much to the chagrin of some on both sides, this is a free site which means that pro and against and everything in between can post their opinions and put them up in the marketplace of ideas. They should just be ready to defend them. Even though some have demanded FR type censorship, the site's owner has chosen the path of freedom over singular orthodoxy.

You might want to at least try to get used to it.  We're in for a very bumpy (and nauseating) four-year (at least) ride.  And ...not getting any younger, I'm not sure my stomach can handle it 'this time'....lol.

Agreed! If someone posts the article the article can be dissected, vivisected, torn apart. We will know what is being said, and we will have whatever rebuttal exists, well hashed over and sourced.

Attack someone who posts articles the rest of the world is reading, and no one will post them so we can tear them apart and we'll all have a nice, padded-cell echo chamber.

Does @Weird Tolkienish Figure (or anyone else, for that matter except card carrying Trumpkins) have to post a disclaimer that:
Quote
The opinions of the article author are the opinions of the author and not necessarily those of the poster who has provided them for entertainment/discussion purposes
?
Talk about snowflakes. If the article is bogus, attack that, attack the content, the lies, the author, the publishing source. Have at!
Be thankful someone provided it for your continued enjoyment and leave the poster out of it.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I like this site but there are a lot of crazy people who post here.  I think they are beginning to drive the relatively sane people away or maybe it's just a post election slump.

But not nearly so many people are posting now.

I don't mind the slant of the articles being posted as much as I do the passive aggressive snarks aimed generally at those with whom the snarker disagrees.

But if someone wants to stain EVERY damn article with their bias then great. I don't think anyone here other than the handful of their fellow travelers take them seriously anyway.
