are the comments getting swarmed?

Postby FieldMarshalFry » Mon Feb 27, 2017 2:24 pm

it seems that way to me, every remotely political article is filled with commenters (most of which joined post Trump) with loads of upvotes whining about the "lunatic left" and how the left are all "intolerant fascists" and other bollocks, they keep making up phrases.... is this what the Daily Mail comments section looks like? cos it's only on those articles, all the others are free of their taint

It's incredibly possible that there is a reddit or the like that has a link to all such articles so that the members can comment on the particulars. Or it's one person who is very, very dedicated.

The comment section seems to be getting better than what it was prior to the election imo.

that's the new thing, Fry. If you speak against Trump, you obviously are a paid commenter or shill by George Soros. Just ignore them.

Just how much money do they think Soros has, anyway?

I've been accused of being AuntieMeme by commenters. Frankly I took that as a compliment.

So what, is recycling a cracked article into a photoplasty cracked's version of pulling Excalibur from its stone?

With a devilish twinkle in his eye.
With his hand-picked flowers,
And his feel-good powers,
He made all the girls blush and sigh.

Well, uh Eric, how do I put this... Uh, Soros he's a, um, guy who is a, bit- he's supposedly, known to be, a, uh *clears throat* ceeeeertain kind of individual. You know, the type? Supposedly known for certain kinds of expertise in matters related to "the dismal science", lawyerly and a biiit argumentative, thought to be rather insular and clannish, religious types with a certain reputation? (Nervous hinting ensues, insinuation intensifies, beating the bush like it gave me disrespect).
