I don't support the Clinton family I made this so we had a thread specifically for Clinton for the presidential race. I'm voting for Trump we already got a Trump thread it's fair to have his opposition. Thank you for your time and please discuss below you have a right to know.
no it wasn't there was no official hillary clinton for president thread, we only had a Trump and Sanders thread. Quote the whole thing
No, at one point, a Hillary thread was proposed after the Trump thread started. I believe the idea was pretty much ignored due to RP&R which brings into question why there is a Trump thread.

The answer for why those threads are there is "Because we fear the hellfire and retribution that would sweep P&R if Grumpy were a mod for that section."

To clear this up the Hillary thread was made and then canned due to the person making it not having a constructive starting post and a flame bait title.
I tried to at least get it on track but people didn't let it go so I canned it. This is where the whole "OMG Mods love Hillary! You can't say anything bad about her or they will ban you!" rumor started.
Says the admin with digital schizophrenia/split account disorder.
It's one account, damnit
I use the alternates for two reasons:
- So it's easy for people to differentiate when I'm partaking in the discussion (the various silly accounts) vs. acting as an administrator (Rooks)
- It's a lot funnier, to me, anyway, to watch someone with a weak argument get their *** beat by a guy named "Terlet Sangria"
The masses are generally reasonable, it's specific individuals that are completely unhinged.
I'm going to answer both assertions:
A) People in general are reasonable. Individuals themselves are reasonable, but you can't judge a classification of a group by a few, very specific members of that group.
B) Group intelligence is actually a highly studied psychological and behavioral trait. The general, accepted notion is that the larger the group, the lower the overall average of intelligence and rational thinking that group portrayed.
I'm not saying that either of you are wrong, it's just that you can't base a limited sample size to reflect society as a whole.
