Repeatedly posting the same meme in response to what a poster says is trolling, just because you lot think that the "NPC" meme is the height of enlightened criticism doesn't change that fact.
So if I was to post a one-word response (let's say "wrong!") to each of your posts that I found to be factually incorrect, would that make me a troll?

What fact? Seems the word is stuck in your "mind" as you already admitted you know Fall about USA politics. Maybe you are feeling bored and lonely and got stuck in the wrong thead completely out of your depth?

Dude's got a point, Cray. Shouldn't you be more careful about what you label as an opinion and what you label as a fact?

Try keep up. I admitted I don't know everything about US politics, unlike some around here I don't pretend to know everything, which is why I ask for evidence when people make stupid claims.

Probably, especially if you din't choose to explain yourself. It may not be trolling but it certainly bears all the hallmarks of it -how are people supposed to tell the difference if you don't explain yourself.

Having taken the trolls and other manbabies out of the conversation - Serious, Pitbull, Rietrot - leaves this thread very sparse on information.
I stick my head in now and again if there's some actual news, but the thread looks really weird without all the tantrums:laugh:

Well, I imagine that Seriously didn't really think much of an explanation was needed given the widespread popularity of the meme and its sentiments.

And quite frankly Cerebus is the most NPC-like poster on this board that I've come across, he has a tendency to enthusiastically repeat all of the usual NPC talking points whenever they appear in the media, and frankly I think all of us who don't share his sympathies have come to suspect that there's nothing but soc-jus ideology driving/justifying Cerebus' opinions.

And this probably started with the whole "OK sign means white power" routine from Cerebus.

Blindly following Qanon theories demonstrates far more mindless herd like behaviour, but hey what ever?

Attack? Are you feeling persecuted?
By you? Not at all. But lets see which comment konfab called a fact. Yet some NPC libtard ignored that and aimed at me for calling it a fact? You even know who that was? Still remember?

I think our definitions of WAR is different. That being said, luckily those joining the army are not raised by Libtards, else they would not have joined the army am I right? Glad some folks still know how to raise their kids the right way.
Interesting fact

Just because it's popular doesn't mean it's accurate.

Feel free to poke a hole in my conclusion in the post I linked if you can. If you can't, then the fact that there is only one plausible explanation for how the state of affairs came to be makes following Q posts a reasonable activity.

I might be following something, but it isn't mindlessly. And how come I never hear you pipe up about the giant hoax that was the Russiagate conspiracy?

And, that the OK symbol means "white power" was a 4chan hoax, so at worst that makes Cerebus and I even. :ROFL:

What is your point exactly, that I called you out on something but not him?
