Is the San Bernadino attack in 2015 too long ago? One of the shooters was born in Pakistan, the other born here but of Pakistani descent. Yet, Pakistan is not on the banned list.
Obviously you can have different views, but you respond to many of the people you disagree with on these political posts by talking down to them and being condescending. Your point gets lost in your delivery.
I don't intentionally talk down to anyone but I do think that some people love the sensationalist journalism that goes on. I have a hard time not pointing that out and sometimes my delivery might not be the best.
As for you, I think that if you are the same IRL as you are on here, you are doing yourself a disservice. You have the opportunity to educate and sway people one way, but instead you are combative and dismissive. You will alienate all of those that don't agree with you. You will further the divide.
Appeasement is not my strong suit. Nothing anyone says is going to change anyone else's mind.

Honestly it sounds like you're the one being ridiculous.
Maybe you're less biased then you appear, but it seems that all you do is come on here with the purpose of tearing apart anti-Trump posts.
The actions of the British Parliament are obviously not the norm but all you want to do is split hairs.
If you were even handed in this that would be a different story. However, you never comment when a pro Trump poster comes on with what are almost always - with very few exceptions - factless, antagonistic posts.
I don't know if we are reading the same chat board but there have been very few pro Trump posters that come on at all anymore. Who would I possibly comment on? In fact the last post I remember from a Trump supporter I actually did post that I thought something inappropriate was said.
Regardless, there are a few people that I can really learn from on here, but a lot of posters only want to see one side of this story. They don't believe that there can be anything other than the end of the world coming. I have found so many posters to be so narrow minded and opinionated. If you knew me in real life you would actually know that I care very little about "politics" but I do care about the truth and when I constantly see people embellishing things to prove their own point, frankly I find it infuriating. It's very similar to what I see the media doing and I loathe that as well.
Obviously there aren't many but it just seems to me that you never comment on the lack of logic or facts in their posts, which I find to be true in pretty much every case except for Karen.
I find that they aren't really posting facts, or links to articles, etc. They are posting their opinions so it's hard to tell someone that their opinion is wrong. On the other side things are being presented as facts that I believe can be inaccurate at times. I would call out one of them just as quickly if they post a link to something that I think is being blown out of proportion.
My point is that if you are honestly trying to have a discussion about the issues, I would think you would have pressed them on their lack of facts to back up their opinions. To fail to comment on that while splitting hairs with us seems one sided.
