And that's fine but I always use the new post thread to see what's happening so when I look all I see are political posts.
Same with me, PA.

This is turning into Left vs. Right Zone.

Using "New Post" feature doesn't differentiate between threads/Zones, only posts.

Hmmm.... yeah I can understand that, it's been buzzing in the Drama zone. Is it hard to ignore? I'm not being a smarty, I really want to know.
Yes, it is, Joe. It shows up in the feed unless you ignore members. Which is silly, because there's so many members posting in here

Yeah I’m making up freedom of speech...
Now go ahead and pretend expression isn’t speech and I’ll point you to the citizens united Supreme Court decision where speech is defined.

Hey I guess nothing is wrong with forced patriotism.


As I just mentioned, according to my company's compliance rules, I have zero freedom of speech at my work now. If someone complains about my personal Social Media post, that can be grounds for termination as well. The online examples were disagreeing with Christianity and pro-life as well as muslim sexual orientation, or public works item.

I suppose I could go to the fan zone and the NFL Zone only but it's harder to navigate and see what's new. I do belong to another website that has a political board but they have it so members have to ask to have access to it and if you don't you can't see the threads at all.

Huh?

Your work has a problem with Christ? Our Jesus. Time to quit your job.

Since we're playing politics, and I am admittedly a non-political person... does anyone here like Noam Chomsky?

Not particularly. Makes interesting arguments, but assumes you can have a utopia. Typical anti-capitalism arguments.

Muslims have a sexual orientation? I thought it was marry a 14-year old girl and receive 20 goats, a shawl, and some gold -- or get stoned to death during half-time of a local soccer match?

I respect your opinion. Reality sticky posted us some pearls of wisdom in the first thread for the Drama Zone.
https://cowboyszone.com/threads/if-you-have-thin-skin-stay-out-of-this-forum.386143/
I agree with the person you quoted nothing really will come out of this because we aren't changing our minds but I disagree that this is "political". Now if his political really means racial I can agree with it but political not really. This isn't an approval of a loan for the city in our respective cities but disagreement mainly that is drawn along racial lines at least in my anecdotal looks.
