I seriously think all these GFYers do this for some sort of release, a way to vent their outrage about this or that. It's really a quite boring read tho, all this back-and-forth, with both sides negating what the other side just said, endlessly.
This used to be a PORN BOARD remember. Sigh. Oh well, carry on.

It is a release for me. I do not discuss it on Facebook or other social media.
On one hand I think the politics has gotten out of hand on GFY. On the other hand this has always been the "fucking around" forum where we are supposed to discuss "everything except business" which has never really been the way it's worked. The truth is GFY is a "break" for most of us, and a place where occasionally business gets done.
I don't start any political threads.
This is not a Democrat / Republican thing for me. This is we have a really bad president. When Bush was in office I surely didn't feel like this. This is just beyond ridiculous at this point. Everyone knew dropping out of the TTP was a horrible idea, it was one of the first things Trump did, and now a year in he's finally figured out this was a horrible idea. Every last promise he made is pure bullshit.
Also, there is no such thing as "mainstream media". The mainstream media IS the media. Fox News isn't news, it's all opinion. When you have so called newscasters attacking other newscasters and bullying teenagers who just survived a mass shooting, well, you are no longer news at that point.
