Forum Post: I think we should ban the following user...

I am using a fake name. I do not want to burn bridges. I am not Thrasymaque. I am not Odin. I am well respected. I think we should ask for VQkag2 to be banned. Many here are tired of his partisanship, but I think his constant insults are the big problem. He picks fights with everybody and does not contribute to this forum. He calls all his "rivals" republicans. He is here to divide. What say you?

Why not simply ignore all posts from people whose contributions you don't care about?Are VQ's posts really that bad and destructive? I think not.Will ignoring VQ cause him any kind of serious harm or provide him with a legitimate greivance? I think not-after all I am still alive and without a complaint even though my posts are mostly ignored.VQ figured out how to get attention,and is simply using a formula that gets the results he wants.

[-] 2 points by shadz66 (19985) 11 years ago

LOL, VQkag "shilling for DemoCraps" is what he does and we the befuddled, perplexed and confused need not get overly vexed --- because we still ain't gonna get fooled, right ?!

In a nut shell : OF COURSE 'Voting Obomber' ain't no panacea or solution to anything at all but for anyone remotely left / liberal / progressive who still wants to vote for POTUS in 2 months time - wtf is the option ? It's like talking loudly about wiping one's ass after a trip to the loo at a dinner party - NOT a nice subject for conversation but what was the option ? Ohbummer, right ?!!

That's the sad, honest truth as I see it and The Real Struggle Comes After November !!! Bollocks Oblah-blah or The Rancid, Reactionary and Repugnant, Rmoney / Ryan / Rubio Romulans ... shit ain't changing any time soon from the top down. Go Get A Fkin Clue, Will Ya ?!!!

Now what else do I say ? I say the very first person that we should think you are is 'Trashy', because if you had a pair you'd have fronted up and spoken under your so called 'respected persona'. You are the divider here & VQkag is piss easy to slap or ignore ... just like you 'Troll-boy' ! Trying to get a bunch of limp-dick, tell-tales to gang up & ban someone else is slimeball, chicken-shit, garbage behaviour of the lowest order. I have NEVER called for your banning Trashy, you sneaky li'l low life scum-bag, ass-wipe.

The lefties on here can vote for Stein and the righties Johnson. There will be more than 2 choices on most states' ballots.

[-] 0 points by shadz66 (19985) 11 years ago

WhoTF is "Johnson" ? Your penis ?! Deluded fool who believes voting is gonna change shit !! Time for you to go find out what Emma Goldman said about the matter of 'voting' now, dipshit !!!

temet nosce ...

[-] 2 points by conservatroll (187) 11 years ago

That was quite a quality post. Gary Johnson, fyi.

[-] -2 points by VQkag2 (16478) 11 years ago

LMFAO!

Voting is useless but to keep the worst out of office. And meaningless if we do not grow this movement and have massive protests!

[-] 0 points by Evergreen38 (14) 11 years ago

How can we expect people to protest, possibly get arrested for what they believe in when this forum is so poorly connected to the streets, and if anything looks more like a moveon.org site? it's like i belong to two separate groups at times

[-] 1 points by April (3196) 11 years ago

If I were new here and looking to see what OWS was about, I'd run the other way after reading some of VQkags partisan bumper sticker crap. Between him and DK's obnoxious cheerleading, quite frankly, it's nauseating.

Really? Umm what is your position? What do you support?

[-] 4 points by conservatroll (187) 11 years ago

Lord knows I love puppies, but it's not a matter of D or R to me. I do NOT support Obama In this cycle, I am supporting Gary Johnson though I fear it is a vote for Obama, but I have voted 3rd party several times...John Anderson and Ron Paul back in the 80's. Ross Perot in the 90's. My biggest issue is the rise of the police state and Bush is as much to blame as Owebama. I am for Liberty and I do not think the Republican party supports this any more than the Dems do.

[-] 3 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

OK - that was a nice comment. Maybe you could concentrate on adding stuff like that. Though It is late in the day to expect a 3rd party presidential winner in this election. I think we will have better luck in the senate and congressional races - and if we begin now perhaps a real 3rd party shot at the white house in 2016.

[-] 4 points by conservatroll (187) 11 years ago

Gotta work on 3rd parties. Are you aware of what BS the Repubs pulled on their conventions rules prior to start of convention that shut out the RP supporters? Or tonite's breaking news about how the DNC just forced God and Jerusalem back into the platform despite THREE voice votes that clearly were against this? Both parties are doing all they can to prevent change from within.

[-] 1 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Well honestly? I can't feel bad for RP. But were you expecting something good from the RINO convention?

[-] 2 points by conservatroll (187) 11 years ago

You realize we are posting on a thread that no longer exists!?!?

[-] 2 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Well of course the thread exists or we could not comment on it.

It;s been shadow disappeared. Go back to forum page and try to find it

[-] 1 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Well perhaps not a total loss - if the comments survive - I believe they go out to social media anyway - to be found on searches that people do on google. Still I guess that is the risk we run on commenting on a bogus post.

Though, some third party candidates in congress might help quite a bit.

[-] 3 points by hchc (3297) from Tampa, FL 11 years ago

15 people in congress that dont give a fuck about democrats and republicans and are there to expose the cozy relationship and its game over for both of em.

It really is that easy.

[-] 2 points by hchc (3297) from Tampa, FL 11 years ago

(from below)

That was a very high side estimate with lots of help and print materials. On the low side we figured $100 for gas and food a day, and $100 for a hotel room for the night. Add in usual monthly expenses like phone and insurance, and some extras, and it comes in under 10k per month.

This is all under the guise of nonstop tourning. Everyday. Which could be a lot to expect out of the human body.

[-] 2 points by richardkentgates (3269) 11 years ago

I think it could be

[-] 3 points by hchc (3297) from Tampa, FL 11 years ago

The biggest obstacle is the media. because the D and R will smear the shit out of those people.

The thing about great leaders is that they have usually made a lot of mistakes. Perfect for smear campaigns.

[-] 2 points by richardkentgates (3269) 11 years ago

Gota stay on um. I tweet and facebook at at least two media figures per week with news they aren't covering. The big three have reportedly lost a lot of viewers over the last few years. Take that and add a lot of people in their face with why they are losing viewers, they will have to shape up. Less viewers = Less advertising dollars.

[-] 2 points by hchc (3297) from Tampa, FL 11 years ago

We crunched numers a while ago on the costs of a state campaign. One that is focused on constand speaking engagements and a small team going door to door and canvassing.

Came out to be something like 20k a month, plus initial costs of RV.

Gas, food, money for promo materials, and some money for help. Wasnt that hard.

But would take a lot of commitment and a lot of energy.

[-] 2 points by richardkentgates (3269) 11 years ago

Damn. Shouldn't cost so much to run for office. Thats part of the problem.

[-] -2 points by VQkag2 (16478) 11 years ago

Is this considered campaigning?. I think it does. and if so isn't this against ows forum rules.?

[-] 1 points by conservatroll (187) 11 years ago

Yeah, when I am in doubt, it's either 3rd party or whoever is the non incumbent! Gonna vote for Rupert for Gov of IN.

[-] 1 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

No bout adoubt it.

[-] -1 points by VQkag2 (16478) 11 years ago

Beats me dude. But this site does not hurt our ground war. If you are concerned about our ground war then you might want to

  • Focus our protests against those media outlets attacking/ignoring us. And the pols who are attacking/ignoring us.

  • We should encourage those media/pols who give positive support.

  • Also we should follow and agitate for changes in laws used to curtail our protest/speech rights, as well as support the legal fights against police abuse.

  • Finally we MUST grow the movement by expanding our inclusiveness and partnering with like minded groups. Making a special effort to find and reach out to those people who do not vote.

What do you think of these ideas? Do you have any other, or perhaps exansion on these? I want to hear.

I say as I do with everyone - try to do better - look at your comments and see if perhaps they could not have been stated better - I try to give good advice.


If you are well respected on the forum - I would suggest that you need not make a fake name to discuss your views. Perhaps you could try being a moderator for peace? Do some PM's or other guidance counseling.

I never engage him. Nonetheless, he pollutes thread after thread.

Censorship is not the way. Only in cases of violent rhetoric or commercial spamming should anyone be banned. Social pressure is the proper way to show what the group does and does not feel to be acceptable.

In my opinion.
