I don't think it's a good thing but if it's what they want, it is what it is. | ||

No matter how dumb you think Wegandi's posts are I have no doubt that he believes in them. The global warming denial where he talks about the breeze of the wind and such had to have been purely provocative though. | ||

Feels like an Alt, who's first 10 post on a gaming website are in the USpol thread?

It's a tread for those who have been banned or is otherwise unhappy with the regular thread.. Can't imagine why that would create an echo chamber. What's stopping the rest of us from posting in it is that we already have politics thread; you know the original one? I can't quite fathom what this thread is suppose to do or why Seeker cleared it, but I admit I don't have any strong feelings towards having it removed either. Not like it's hurting me by simply existing or anything. | ||

The blog gives those people who can't get along in the main thread a place to post and chat about politics. But it isn't an echo chamber. It's just another space. There's less pushback against certain things, but there's been no fights either. Seems like a success to me so far. | ||
