Point system revisionPosted by:
 JudgeDredd
Dear Members,
Following a number of reports on abusive practices in regards to the upvote function, we are examining the possibility of a revision to the current system of point attribution. To be more specific, the point system was designed and implemented so Members can indicate agreement with posts and comments, without having to create a comment to express such an agreement. Lately though, it has been observed that the functionality and original purpose of the system has been altered to artificially inflate the popularity of posts/comments/users. This practice could possibly lead to Voting Wars. ... Read more |

Now the question is, by enabling Trump to continue his racism through the ballot box, is one proclaiming to be in favour of RACISM or not?
What do you think? Does voting for a racist make one a racist? |

A little less than a month ago, Netflix found itself in hot water after releasing a promotional poster for the movie Cuties (also titled Mignonnes), which is about a young girl who joins a group of dancers at school known as “The Cuties.” The film has been criticized for its sexualized portrayal of children, and now, after a social media campaign on Twitter with #CancelNetflix, it looks like a bunch of people followed through and canceled their Netflix subscriptions.

I am tired reading about TrumpPosted by:
 Nasos
I am tired reading about Trump and all the American circus shows. How about the rest of the world? How about the clowns we got in Europe ? How about Boris the banana head, responsible for many deaths in the UK, Our previous idiotic prime minister Tsipras, Merkel the Turkish massage therapist who brought Europe down into divided protectorates of Germany and gave a green light for Islam to conquer us. How about dictator Erdogan? I don't see people making jokes about him? The south of Europe is about to have war and NATO split in two pieces. I haven't heard anyone saying anything about it? How about the Chineese and their "kom oui make biznes, yo buy flom us we [email protected] you" trading techniques and conquering plan.
