Oh hahaha lolololol.

That is great if you want to discuss the issue of race and such. But when you start a thread stating that all of America is racist and start throwing around "what ifs" there is no point in discussing it.

It's you that was playing the "attacked" victim here. As far as your post, there are NO facts to comment on. This thread definately DOES NOT belong in an American Politics section.

Nope, this is what a "troll" is, according to the forum rules:
2. No trolling. Trolling is posting unsubstantiated claims repeatedly and flooding a forum. For example, if someone posts five “The US Sucks” threads and then just posts about how much it sucks with no information to back up the claim, it will be considered trolling, while if they back up the claim that the US sucks with supporting evidence, it will be allowed.
Your OP is ridiculous. I am not the only one here that thinks that. In fact, the MAJORITY of the threads you post are trollish, so don't try spinning this into something it's not.

No, you didn't answer it. Why are you trying to mislead here? Look for yourself. Here is my question and your half arsed answer:

Looks like you are NOT answering the direct question because there ARE no conservative/republican advisors in this forum. Correct me if I am wrong.

Where on earth did I state that all of America is racist? And why are hypotheticals inherently evil?

I like the Elsie comment - that's funny.

The viola and trolling business are simply your take on the situation. I disagree. Hypotheticals are a way to get people to reframe - and reframing can lead to interesting insights. You assume that I am posting for support of a thesis with which you disagree - but you don't offer the antithesis which is fairly evident.

As to the your real concern - one day I got a message from the mods asking if I would be an advisor. This way, I would assume, they can get a quick reality check from someone not involved in the day to day function of the site. Pjohns and Malrenald are the other two who were chosen - which you would have realized from my jibe, had you been paying attention.

You're wrong. pjohns is a conservative Republican.

And quit attacking Jojo. She is not a troll and does not post troll threads so stop the insulting allegations.

Baiting would have been a more appropriate comment to make. Even though it takes two to tango, your cease and desist request is duly noted. I do not agree entirely with your comment, but will respect the presidential whip

My apologies go out to Jojo and I hope that we both can find more of a mutual ground to discuss topics.

By the way, I got my PM as well.
