That's the rule. You know the rule.

Some of you continue to push this, knowing that you're doing this, doing it on purpose, and you will soon no longer have an account if it continues.
Maybe it's time to create an off-topic subforum?

Actually, no, I didn't. I forgot to hit confirm post when I finished with that and went to play with the kids for a while (my response to another thread has also been sitting here on the "editing board" for a few hours). Came back, realized I didn't and hit the button. For that I apologize and will back out of the topic of our political system.

That said, skimming an article . Also, just because there's an article about something in an op ed confirming your beliefs doesn't mean it's inherently true or unbiased.

Not one to dictate how anyone runs their forum or anything, but in my opinion formed from my own experience in the past managing a few lesser known forumotion boards, having an Off Topic section or thread is generally a good idea to keep people from doing it in other topics. People generally just want to discuss current events with the people in communities they populate, regardless of what the community's main purpose is for (like, say, an online Yu-Gi-Oh dueling club, or a Digimon fandom board). It's an inherent drawback to having social recluses and adults having open discussion on the boards.

Does not mean it's not true either, also again you admitting to skimming the article means anything you have to say about it is meaningless.

Anyways here's something cool a fan did for Super:https://comicbook.com/anime/2020/03/23/ ... tion-goku/

That's not how that works, you're just an incredibly dismissive person as you've shown multiple times to me since I've gotten here. If you read the first and last sentences of a paragraph, notice they're talking about the same thing in the next paragraph, and so on and so forth, it's perfectly fine to skim to get the gist of what's being said. Every time they did mention something wrong with Bernie's side, they attributed it to his campaign and campaign team, not him specifically.

If the virus existed in the DBU, the easiest way to deal with it would probably be just to wish for Shenron to cure it.
