Kinda dead :v

[Wolfhunter107]

We're going to need to import all our salt now.

[birdy51]

Honestly... The Republican party has by far and away lost my trust. And that's as a Republican.

* AmeriPol Thread has entered the Age of Twilight. Without a means of domestic salt production, an eerie silence prevails over the remaining posters.

It's just been a slow day or two, mostly. From what I understand the next (last?) shoe's intended to be dropped on trump sometime this weekend.

Though yeah, it's fairly likely there'll be less of the sort of analysis and explanation mainiac did. There's only a few folks that loiter around that're willing to on the subjects he tended to go off on, and they generally don't have nearly the time or energy to put out the same sort of material, or the degree of exposure to/investment into the political scene.

Ten, fifteen years ago I might have tried to make up for the slack, heh. Don't nearly have the energy for it these days. Or the cognitive clarity.

...

i mean i could try and pick up on the salt production

all i need for input is gender politics really

and sexuality

quick someone find a homo/transphobe and the Salt Rush will be fuckin' boomin'.

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

To jumpstart this thread, I will provide actual words by a bigot!

"Why don't they just wear a dress?"

...it's not working! Add more bigotry!

"GOD HATES FAGS"

Is it working yet?

[Frumple]

Eh... thing was, it wasn't just salt. M was aggressive and you could see the patience (what there was) for a lot of the bullshit our political cycles output deteriorating over the years, but there was more going on there, by a fair amount. Investment, concern for the actual system and its outcomes, that sort of thing. Kinda' pointless to contemplate it too much at this point, though, so whatever.

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

My post was mostly tongue-in-cheek, but internet tone and such requires that I label it explicitly as such.

I suppose that the post-mainiac slump could just be observational bias, though.

[Frumple]

Ah, nah, was replying to desc, just didn't get around to putting out the effort to quote and whatnot.

Fair amount of bias though, yeah. Like said, it's been a slow-ish (or at least samey) day or three.

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

And it's not like there haven't been slow days before, yeah.

[Max™]

Lord knows it would have been salty as fuck if mainiac was around in the days of Comeyfail.

[Frumple]

... most of the posts that have been related to that since it came up have been pretty vitriolic, yes. Hasn't really been anyone trying to defend it, particularly via bullshit, though, which is what would have set M off. Guy didn't just vomit saline into a vacuum, most of the time.

[Max™]

True, also this:
