Yes, because the internet does not exist in the real world! Why should we care what's happening around us? Eyes back to your monitors!

- run4yourlives 19y agoEvery site has a focus.
- nkohari 19y agoI'm not suggesting we become the politics subreddit. Just saying that it's important to know what's going on IRL too. :)
- run4yourlives 19y agoYou can visit other sites you know. I'm pretty sure Paul won't mind. :-)
- davidw 19y agoI don't agree with nkohari, but he shouldn't be voted down this much. A 0 or a -1 is enough to say "no, we don't agree". It's not as if he said something horribly offensive.
- nkohari 19y agoThanks for the support. I guess I didn't realize that this was an opinion-free zone. Honestly I think it's ridiculous that I would get down-voted for supporting an article that's now at number one. Clearly people care about the topic, and it's not like I contributed "less" to the discussion than the original comment I replied to, which was up-voted like wildfire. It's not like I'm on here spouting support for Ron Paul or linking to leftist blogs.
- Xichekolas 19y agoI too disagreed with you, but voted you up (from -8 to -7) because I think it's ridiculous that you can bury someone that much. If you think about it, the only people that deserve to be buried are true trolls posting viagra ads and those terrible scat porn stories on slashdot... and those people don't care about their karma anyway, so you might as well just delete their accounts. Why don't we just have some kind of floor on comments. Really -1 is enough to say "this comment is crap" without resulting in a situation where someone is dogpiled.
- andreyf 19y agoI agree with davidw, but he shouldn't be voted up this much. A 3 or a 4 is enough to say "we agree". It's not as if he said something horribly insightful.
- davidw 19y agoSee how short the path is from politics to meta-meta discussions? A slippery slope indeed;-) I wouldn't vote me up that much either, but there is a difference between voting up and voting someone way down.
- initself 19y agoHow did this get negative points? I can only upvote!
- Xichekolas 19y agoYou need a certain level of karma to downvote.
