Another thing to do if you feel like amusing yourself. Take a few minutes and look at DU. It's very interesting. It's not just that they are so wrong about so many things, it's the level of their discourse. Compare the conversations there to the conversations here. We've got our share of posts that are juvenile and silly, but they are in the minority, and most of the time the result of good people momentarily frustrated. The general level of discussion here at FR is actually quite high-brow. Not so there at DU. They really do seem like children on drugs. Their sentence structure, their lack of coherent thinking, their inability to post much more than a few staggered shouts and rages. A homeless guy in the library typing out his manifesto against Campbell Soup seems the voice of reason compared to the nitwits over there at DU. They aren't just wrong. They are deeply stupid, and seriously disturbed.
YOu are not kidding! Actually, I go to other sites that are not political, but tend to attract a lefty crowd (say, on movies) and the grammar, spelling, analysis is unbelievably bad. And every aspect of discourse includes the vulgar, profane and perverse.
Here, even if a post is juvenile and silly, it is usually passably well-written.
I can only imagine what DU must be like. I'll check it out sometime!
