This is retaliation for what they did here

right after I posted it. My thinking is if they want to play games like that I can as well.

I probably would have never looked at or posted on this thread. You see thats the difference these trolls can't help what they do. If it's something their not interested in or disagree with they crap all over it.

What amazes me is that nobody calls these politicians on the carpet for this kind of gerrymandering. It's fucking criminal.

I agree wholeheartedly.

Your perception is incorrect, if you really believe that. The items posted in the war on women thread were topical (if cartoonish). They made political points, re 'war on women.' And you got on-topic text replies as well. Given that the whole thesis was a stupid 'flip the accusation' attack, your thread was quite successful, I'd say.

You by contrast are just posting noise here, selected to be annoying.

My belief is that you just want to do this sort of thing, due to your personal issues, and have seized on the 'war on women' thread as an excuse. As HK noted, your actions here are OTT, excessive, and unjustifiable.

I would add he's childish and churlish Don but that's come to be expected from 427. He exhibits no intellectual curiosity toward the issues as far as I can see and has a snide demeanor toward anyone who disagrees in the slightest. In other words, a troll.

The decennial re-districting needs to be taken out any politicians hands. Right or left has exhibited a total lack of self control in this regard.
The current scheme has left the Democrats at an 18 seat deficit in the House when compared to the popular vote.

As do election rules and regulations.

They get reformed every so often, the politicians un-reform them.

Same thing with judges hereabouts.

What he wants is to dismantle this forum because he's not treated in the fashion he desires. It's the same thing any narcissist will do to a workplace, or a family, or in any social situation when that narcissist isn't getting what he wants. He walked on here a hostile narcissist looking for trouble, pointing fingers at everybody else's behavior and taking no personal responsibility for his own...and he will never stop until the system that won't give them the adulation they need is taken down. It's psycho-pathological, ignoring doesn't work. Ignoring never works with a narcissist.

We've all seen photos used to wreck a forum before, now it's here. The only way for it to stop is for the management to get rid of him.

Your assessment may be correct. OTOH, the flaming narcissists I've encountered online in the past had no ability to modify their behavior, regardless of feedback or other circumstances. This does not seem to be the case here. I see a person who indulges hostile feelings sometimes, and does try narcissistic 'punishing' of others sometimes, but nonetheless is generally in control of himself.

Every individual is an individual, and no label is ever going to be the whole story.
