If we put up with these retards posting the same stuff over and over again, this place will go the way of EP

Yeah, some people are hyper-focused and have one track minds. Every single post is something political and partisan, trying to bait political opponents. I often take the bait, but there are more things in life.
@puck61 To be honest, I post politically more than I should!
@Mandalorian I was just talking to a person who is my political opposite, but we have been good friends through it all. The political climate is heavily charged and I understand the passion. I understand how my political opposites feel just as passionately as I do. I talk about the 'filters of our perception' sometimes. To tell you the truth, the very best friends I have on this planet hate what is happening, and they hate it from a liberal perspective. We all tend to regurgitate what we are fed, and we tend to consume the information that best suites our personal feelings.
@puck61 True...I do it myself...I have a friend who is a rabid conservative and yet we are good friends in spite of it
@Mandalorian Have you ever heard the Irish song, "There were Roses"? I love these lines.

Now Isaac he was Protestant and Sean was Catholic born
But it never made a difference, for the friendship it was strong
And sometimes in the evening when we heard the sound of drums
We said it won't divide us, we always will be one
For the ground our fathers plowed in, the soil it is the same
And the places where we say our prayers have just got different names
We talked about the friends who'd died and hoped there'd be no more
It was little then we realized the tragedy in store
-Chorus-
