Donald Trump - MAGAtwat news and discussion

[kabbes]

What are you talking about? Hyperbole overload from you there.

Stuff like this

Well this could be interesting. At the risk of sounding like a nut job, I don't trust the result, and how quickly it was called in a landslide. The previous day he was looking beaten, and there were rumblings that he was told he was going to lose with inside polls. There are apparently many missing votes and the bomb scares were all at Dem places.

How did that BOMBSHELL work out for you? Exploded all over Trump, did it?

Sorry, I was under the, obviously mistaken assumption, that this was a discussion forum. My posting pieces which I find interesting, as stated above, was done with that in mind. What's your problem? You seem to have a real bug up your arse here.

I will endeavour to do better in the future, and ensure I run everything I post past you, just in case the outcomes of any discussion don't measure up to the piece discussed.

Oh hang on, no I won't . Who made you the arbiter of what can be discussed and what can't?

 

[pesh]

We can discuss your shite videos if we want

So discuss it. Posting the video isn’t the discussion. The discussion is what comes next.

Reminds me a bit of the Palmer Report which I used to follow on twitter. Crazed daily updates about how "Donald Trump is still going to jail".

I've tracked down the 'Donald shat himself video' - yes, this is how I spend my time - and it was Meidas Touch. The first one begins with a (dishonest) claim that they are treating the topic with tact. LOL.



But in looking for that video I found they did a follow through up, which I've only managed a few seconds of, but begins: 'since we made that video last Friday, we were contacted by several people who were in the same gastroenterologist's waiting room as Donald Trump...'.


I mean, this would all be very funny if it was a Chris Morris product, but it isn't. It's just partisan nonsense.

It seems all that people are discussing is their dislike of vids. That is what's happened here. If you want to discuss the video, go ahead. I gave a description of what the last vid was about, as it seems as if not watching it, so not knowing what it was about, was the response.

 

[pesh]

some videos are well worth watching. You’ve even posted a few. The vast majority of the videos you post are just clickbate shite though and thats what’s being discussed now.

No one wants to discuss the video because it looks more like the Hello Magazine sidebar of shame than a serious source. If you want to discuss the current balance of power in the House then great, crack on and do that and people will probably engage with it.

Whoa, are you suggesting that we are not getting actual reports from fellow Trump patients as they waited in a crowded doctor's surgery?!?

Start a video thread. Problem solved.

placeholder content. Yuck

We can discuss your shite videos if we want

Of course you can...but some aren't. Some people are just attacking the person who posted them.

The videos are not the property or the creation of breadandcircuse, so why are people giving her a hard time because they don't like them.

Go and whinge at the people who made the sodding things.

 

[ddraig]

So no responsibility for content of (and the backing up of) what you post??

 

[Santino]

Me.

no, that’s not how it works.

It's added so that people can watch it if they please - or not. If the owners of this forum don't like - or have concerns about - the content that is posted, I'm sure they would take it down.

Nobody forces you to watch it.

I scroll by 99% of the stuff on here but I don't cry about it if I don't happen to like it or agree with it.

Hell , there's shedloads of stuff posted on here I don't even understand because I apparently have different cultural references (or maybe I'm just getting old) ... but I don't whine about it being posted.

She’s not getting a hard time. She’s feeling personally hurt because people are saying mean things about the videos she loves, but that’s on her. Nobody is saying a damn thing about breadandcircuse. We’re just saying that these videos are clickbait shite.

I don’t think anybody has even tried to tell her not to post them. We’ve just said that we’re not going to watch them.

Are you seriously suggesting we can post literally anything on here as long as we didn’t make it?

It depends on whether it brings legal implications to the site owners or not.

That's for them to decide as it's their site - not you or me.

Complaining about something just because you don't care for it is not the same thing.

I don’t mind telling other posters not to post video content like that

She can post it and I can point out how crap it is. That’s how this works.

 

[maomao]

Well, it's not compulsory, as I keep pointing out. If you don't want to watch, don't. If you do, do. For fucks sake, what is so difficult to understand here?

You are spam. That's why people are annoyed at you. Spam is annoying.

 

[maomao]

Why not just decide not to watch them?

For the same reason we don't have ads on the site. People don't like spam.

There's certainly a convention on here that you should comment on videos that you post, or at least summarise them so people can make a decision as to whether they want to invest their time watching it. However I'm with you generally about scrolling past stuff you are not interested in and think we should be relaxed about different posting styles. At the same time, when someone posts a lot of videos on a thread that people want to engage with, it will be commented upon.

But then as you touched on in a post upthread, let's not make this into an attack on a specific poster. Let's just reiterate the idea that videos should generally be used to illustrate the point you yourself are making.

You think the owners have the time and should be looking for content they have concerns about?? You do know there aren't many moderators and they are all volunteers?
How far do we take the lack of responsibility for posts as long as you "didn't make the video"?

No but we are forced to see the picture representing the video which is often bad enough

No one is crying about it just pointing out that it is largely clickbait and posting such is frowned up, especially with no view or content from the poster

Again, who is whining? Posters are responding with their opinion

 

[maomao]

So if someone posted up lots of hardcore porn, racist content or pictures of dead bodies we should complain to the people who created the content rather than the person who posted them up?

 

[Orang Utan]

Why not just decide not to watch them?

I did.
