->Also there are ways to make titles interesting without rage bait. I don't think my titles are super clickbaity but I usually get a few responses, you should be able to verify that.


Your last forum post was 21 days ago except for a Mafia forum post. You're not prolific (which is fine). But if you were to post about, "Is profit theft?" again, then you won't get nearly as many responses as the 1st.


->And again, if you get people's attention but not a productive discussion all that happened was people's time being wasted.


In the short run; in the long run, they think about it and they realize I was right. Example: My sister gets mad at me for watching porn, so I told her if she can get mad at me for watching porn, then I get to call her a slut. It was triggering. She definitely was mad and try to deny that they are the same thing. But she got over it the next day and never bugged me about porn since, so the triggering worked.

->The big issue in the usa is that society has lost the policy in politics. People would rather argue about the rat race or abstract political values. 


People have always been like this. That LBJ quote is a quote about human nature. People don't care about boring economic issues; people care about stuff that TRIGGERS them (positive or negative; it doesn't matter). You're trying to make human nature different; you can't. You can train humans when they don't have nature implemented into them. But telling people to not value the culture war is like telling a woman to train so hard that she can beat the Rock in a fight.


Such a feat is impossible; so is convincing most people to care about boring economic issues. If it wasn't for social issues, then nobody would be political because economic issues are numbers and numbers are boring.


Even your profile picture is culture war.

People accuse me of doing AI to argue; and I'm obviously going to deny it. I think some good evidence would be I make long posts but also short ones. If I used AI, then every post I make would be very long.

RemyBrown

Care to comment?


Also, I don't use AI, albeit I receive that claim frequently. This is how I unironically communicate to the world. We should meet in person, then you will know I'm communication accurately. The justification that I prefer doing this is from Latin-O-Meter. I enjoy acquiring a high score even in my day to day life because Latin languages are more frequent globally than Germanic ones.

But it's probably going to change. During the 20th century, America didn't die, but it changed. It went from isolationist to global power. This website used to be Debateart.com. But people prefer Mafia forums to Debating forums now. Maybe call the website Mafiacraft or something. It's what you prefer. You can still debate on here, but the whole reason why Mafia is even on here is because a long time ago, people found debating boring, so they added something else. I just never lost my 2021 debating spirit like what most people here did. Do that, and make Mafiacraft before debating/forums on here because it's obvious that this website has changed it's pourpose:


RemyBrown

If I'm being honest, then people on this website don't view politics as something that they enjoy talking about anymore. They prefer playing Mafia.


Should the name of this website be changed from, "Debate Craft" to, "Mafia Craft"?


I'm voting yes.


Link 1 shows how much people debate. Link 2 shows how much people play Mafia. Mafia gets way more attention.

Ah, a conversation the mods would call, "Intelligent" (note: I'm not calling this conversation stupid Fauxlaw). But definitely a conversation I would not start.


4 replies after nearly 4 weeks (including this one).


I'm the only one that can get the political section running; it's why without me, all of you would be bored and will play Mafia games. Because the people of Craft like to be entertained, and 2021 style politics has gotten boring. Because you like to be entertained, you resort to Mafia games. It's how a left majority group stays entertained. I was in a leftist BSA troop; I know this about them.


Mafia culture: Always assuming someone's guilty, everyone accused denies it, lynching occurs, people don't care that they were wrong, repeat. Mafia culture and cancel culture go hand in hand. The Mafia game I therefore discourage people from playing.

There are times to turn the other cheek and there are times to do eye for an eye. Feminists would rather be with the bear than the strange Jewish man. I prefer the strange Jewish man to the bear (see, I actually view them as humans). They are just humans that are generally too left wing and they should become more right wing.


But I will choose the strange Jew over the bear. Feminists won't. Left wing Jewish men are too prideful in their leftism to depart feminism over it and it shows.

RemyBrown

->It's much more antisemitic to claim that a wild animal would be better at contract negotiations than a Jew


Or I'm just not scared of contracts that I can walk away from unscathed. All humans above 18 (with narrow exceptions) are better at contracts than bears.

Just do the current immigration test. There, you will see questions like, "Who was America's 1st POTUS?" If you don't know the answer to that, then you should be banned from the polls.

Crimea is soon. Russia is going to have it eventually, but the rest of Ukraine (if they were smart) would ditch the Cyrillic alphabet to massively distance themselves from Russia.

RemyBrown

->Modern Day Debate


I'm probably going to check them out. Whether they have mods or not will determine whether the site goes left like this one or right wing like DDO did. All 3rd outcomes are temporary; it always goes either/or eventually. Why else is this the 3rd site that's been for debating (before this, there was DDO and DART).

RemyBrown

Proof that I'm a moderate. In fact, I'm more moderate than you according to your own profile.



->You dont have a 'right' to post here and neither does anyone (except for the site owners). 


Change that.


->As for the chart, independents have increased more than Republicans (seriously, a 1% increase isn't evidence of some grand paradigm shift). The people changing their labels arent necessarily sympathetic to Republicans, but less supportive of Democrats.


It's a trend. From 41% to 36.5%. Independents and unaffiliated lean right; it's why combined they're closer to 50% then Dems + independents.


RemyBrown

Every debating website will start out as one of the following:


  1. No mods; free speech absolutism. In this scenario, the right wins because the right biologically has way more debating energy than the left, the left leaves voluntarily, and the website becomes politically dead (DDO being an example).
  2. There ARE mods; free speech gets restricted. It starts out with restricting the most far right ppl on the site, and the mods at the time think, "We will never restrict moderate voices". Then they decide to increase standards of what's ban worthy; then eventually, they end up targeting genuine moderates (me being the example). Conservatives depart the site involuntary due to their eventual ban. Eventually, I'd be unsurprised if Kohai gets banned because he is a Zionist (and many consider Zionism to be hate speech). I'm not going to empathize with his eventual ban because he is the prosecution for my ban.



In situation 1, the left leaves voluntarily. In situation 2, the right leaves involuntarily. Situation 1 seems more ethical. But many websites are situation 1 and many websites are situation 2. People debate to get the world to be within their ideology. Well, it turns out, as time progresses, way more people depart the democrat party and become republican/independent than vice versa. This is despite the GOP going further right and the US being more right wing in 2026 than 2016; the following issues the right has won on to the point where democrats don't like bringing up these issues anymore:


  1. Roe
  2. DEI
  3. BLM
  4. Trans


The right wins in the long term.

RemyBrown

And yet you accused me of being anti sematic.


General context: An animal that kills you vs a strange man that says, "Shalom". Women choose the bear and David (or whatever his new name is) doesn't care because leftist empathy and equality is a facade.
