loving the comments by legbiter and marti  :lol:
I'm not.  There once was a time when at least clever trolling was amusing, not that their trolling rises to that level.  But the western world has trolled itself to the brink of disaster, so let's knock this shit off already before we all become like Russia.  If you're trolling, you're neither clever nor original, no matter how you do it.

I don't think the future of the western world is being effectively undermined by marti's and legbiter's trolling.
Just the two of them, no.  But the "I'm too cool to ever take politics seriously, because all politicians are just different sorts of clowns" attitude is becoming so pervasive that it can decide elections.

Only because the oh so serious are so evenly divided.

American democracy has been reduced to a LOLZ Gamersgate bro rape joke.  However, with the global economy and nuclear weaponry, it's funny until suddenly it's not.

Meh, regardless of the impact of the LOLZ, it is just infantile and telling that people think it is funny to pretend to be racists and bigots. My suspicion is that the LOlZORS are just a fig leaf for their actual views. I AM NOT RACIST JUST PRETENDING!!LOLZLOLZLOLZ.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

maybe some are cracking under the memes from the anxiety of dipping hillary numbers. the jokes have stayed pretty consistent over the past months.

The same shit trolling gets annoying after a while.

I guess Raz was right about Berkut. He would not flinch from any character assassination just to attack someone from the opposite "tribe".
