Solution to political conflict on PF?

In summary, a conversation about a pro wrestling match between Zero and Russ for the title of Mad-dog Mentor turned into a discussion about politics and the state of discourse in the US. Some members placed bets on the match, while others suggested making it a jello wrestling match. In the end, there was still no clear consensus on who would win, and some even joked about the possibility of having a "tale of the tape" to determine the outcome.

Not to mention that there's no real comparisson
of intellegent opposing views here, rather a valid
political viewpoint and some conspiracy theory madness.

Peace and long life.

Yes. Sounds definitely more sane than the yelling at each other that has been intensifying in the last few weeks. And after all, isn't that what US politics boils down to these days? Forget about policies - just bash each other.

Now where's that rubber mallet...:wink:

That's about what I was going for...I figure since we are already separated into good goys and bad guys, we may as well just have a cyber wrestling match. Heck, at least it could be fun!

Actually, I think politics in the U.S. have boiled down to...some of us being so frustrated at the extremist who can't discuss anything, you know the type who declare anyone who does't see their point of view are liars or only support liars, are the "bad" guys etc. etc...that we just bow out..and then many get even more frustrated..and just stop voting. In the case of THIS forum..I personally am electing to just bow out..far more frequently. *shrug*

Zero-It wouldn't be fair for me to become your manager..I inevitably would not be able to resist pushing you to retire early.

Lol, that's a funny typo...isn't that what Jews call Gentiles? I'm not sure, I'm an Atheist, after all...and I still sometimes type 'teh' instead of 'the'.



Ok, most of teh time, ok?!?
