i really hate political shitposts, and every single political is a shit post
rationalremission
Turn off notifications, and you don't have to worry about it
MatthewJohnsona
The only thing they hate more is if you question the quote / source.
UsernameMayBeSubjectToChange
And the people who don't like politics go on every political post to complain instead of filtering it out
Djsocar
Can't take what they dish.

Political imgur sucks. My block list is 300+ users at this point, and I still get a few that slip through the filters...

Yep. Been there.

Ah yes, what happens when someone even remotely tries to say "there's been a lot of misinformation about cops, conservatives and others"
CheshireCad
I used to give a shit about misinformation like that. Until I realized that 90% of the time with cop murders, context changes nothing.
CheshireCad
They kneeled on George Floyd's neck for nine minutes. I don't give a shit if his blood was 85% bath salts and he'd just stolen the Mona Lisa
AutumnalDreams
You came to a pretty interesting realization considering that of the few police killing people situation, the vast majority are 1/2
AutumnalDreams
2/2 justified. George Floyd was one of the few that got killed purely because of horrendously poor training.
YourIceCreamMan
No. Ive posted that meme after being downvoted for citing .gov sources for income figures, etc. Imgur is a hive mind that can't stand facts.
Andalite
Imgur will claim to hate political posts, but the second you complain about someone not using the politics tag, you’re the asshole lol
xyxyxyxy31
AutumnalDreams
Imgur has not hated political posts since 2016. All posts on the FP eventually have a political comment shitting on repubs, on the US or 1/2
AutumnalDreams
2/2 some other stuff. It's all there is. A constant stream of politics

Lol yep. Because I guess you can control whether or not you see something before you see it and know it’s there

flash back to my grade school days when you tell some dude his fly was down.
jherazob
We need a way to report a political post not tagged as such
jeeps005
mute user
jherazob
I have muted A LOT of people, but I won't mute a normal person that does this once or twice, the post itself needs to be correctly tagged
MatthewJohnsona
Wait, is there a way to filter out posts using the politics tag???

I've suggested that a few times. Always polite about it. They lose their shit. It's pretty funny
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
Political posts draw out some of the most extreme psychotic scum of the earth. They legit attract people who just exist to fight & be nasty.
SuperBeetle76
I say we round up every last one of these extremists and execute them in front of their entire family.
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
thevortexmaster
Hahaha
Gunykin
Did you put the little "/s" on it? If you didn't then it probably wasn't read as sarcasm on this toneless text medium.
fatherted
Shakespeare used the /s symbol all the time.
tuxedobob
Only pussies use /s!

/s is for cowards. Live by the sword, die by the sword. Points aren't real.
ThePunishersVengefulBrother
Look at you! You're soooooooo smart.
MatthewJohnsona
Makes no difference in my experience.
NZSheeps
No, fight against the '/s'. We have to stop spoon-feeding humour to people.
Qualtagh
Fuck that. Playing coy about your tone just enables Schrodinger's Douchebags to thrive. You're not Jonathan fuckin Swift, so write openly.
tarnok
But I am Jonathan fucking Swift?
KaraokeLemur
Leave Swift alone, Jonathan!
Qualtagh
Sorry Swifty, I was talking to some sheep. You, of course, should go buckwild.
Cochito
I dunno, maybe we should just have a disclaimer before we publish a comment. Perhaps a different color font to distinguish the difference?
Cochito
Whoops forgot the /s. That would be fuckin stupid. Trolls and d-bags will always exist, stop feeding them, that’s the best you can do
Qualtagh
I'm not claiming there's some standard everyone must adhere to, I'm saying throwing out "/s" entirely is fuckin stupid. It's a useful tool.
Seethreepeeoh
/s is for the weak. And/or Americans
franklydizzy
Its punctuation. Punctuate your comments so that people understand them. It is not difficult.
tarnok
Goodbye fair maiden! (Watches your downvotes)
BlacknCrimsonRose
Tempting fate there.
ShiftingPattern
/s is for people who are familiar with Poe's Law.
TerribleBaconMistake
Poe's Law is an excuse for the habitually stupid and offended to pass blame instead of admitting they're habitually stupid and offended.
ShiftingPattern
Poe's Law is a valid observation that some people ARE that stupid so those of us who understand the situation should act accordingly.
Seethreepeeoh
That sounds like one step away from victim blaming!
KaraokeLemur
It's not even stupidity that causes the problem. Without knowing the author it's impossible to distinguish sarcasm from their opinion from >
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
What are you new here? Spend enough time around social media and you see enough dumbass comments that you honestly can't tell sometimes.
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
And your random jab at Americans from left field is cringe. Upgrade your sense of humor.
IntentiomalTypo
I know that I can't intuit sarcasm without any kind of obvious indicated since I have no brain.
CaptainSomebody

Ialwayslookhungover
There's too many Schrodinger's Douchebags on here to assume they're trying to make a joke.
BlacknCrimsonRose
Almost every time I give someone the benefit of the doubt, they confirm I should stop. Those rare occasions I'm right keep me doing it tho
YouCantChangeYourUserName
YOU DIDN'T PUT /S THAT MUST HAVE BEEN SERIOUS. HOW DO YOU LIVE WITHOUT BRAIN?
Paoloc0mments
Brian who?
IntentiomalTypo
I wish I could tell you .. but you know... Brain.
Beezlebubble
The problem is, sometimes it's brain, sometimes it's text, sometimes it's language barrier. Always assume you need to go the extra mile
IntentiomalTypo
I've put "/s" in a reply comment and people will downvote the shit out of me and berate me for not putting it in the original.
