You can't see whatever he posts for a GDT because he's on ignore. 

So what?  Make your choice to ignore or not and live with it.

My problem was with Romad suggesting we shouldn't have any MAGA posting on the Tigers board.  

I'm more with you than ROMAD on this, but it gets harder with every passing day. The expectation that we all play by a sense of decency and decorum while this new administration just ruins everything that is good about the US isn't sustainable in the long run

I have no problem with anyone who runs the game thread. I can always “show this post” if I want to see it.

Yeah, civil discourse is getting more difficult in general for sure.

I'm going to complain and make a stink about it because he's on the side of actual evil.  It transcends.  Its not just sports.  He's a bad person.

I probably should know this, considering I have family in the Arlington area (though I haven't seen them for years). 

Flipping off is kind of normal here, in a Ralph/Sam kind of way. 

Yeah, it's not a big deal in Ahlington.

I’m not saying anything about what kind of person he is.  I just don’t see why there needs to be stink about posting activities elsewhere.  If you want to converse with someone, so be it.  If you want to ignore someone, so be it.

Unbelievable... Maybe JD owes his cousin a call 

[LaceyLou]

Musk has a list of people he blames for paying protestors to make trouble for him at Tesla stores. Of course Soros is on the list (he really does get around). 

At least two of the people on the list are dead-wow, that's a pretty neat trick to keep it up after death!

But more seriously, Elon-people are protesting you because they really, really hate you.

[Tiger337]

Mike Johnson brought up Gorge Soros today too.  Whenever I see "George Soros" mentioned on social media, I know not to take the person seriously.  Same with Fauci. When a MAGA brings up his name, I don't take them seriously.

Do we feel like we are more respected than we ever will be, @Tigeraholic1?

Yeah, this is pre 2025 thinking.

I will continue not to post in here. So you don't need to tag me anymore.

This. I didn't even know the guy was MAGA until I saw the posts in the politics forums. He seems to keep politics out of the sports threads....mostly.

Not to mention all the people who will die in Ukraine and elsewhere because we sold out our allies.  All the kids who will die from measles.  All the people who will lose their livelihoods after a blameless careers devoted to science or public service.

God damn them.

It gets worse. Trump cut off funding for weapons. Then he stopped sending them security updates. Then he stopped sharing satellite imagery with them. The latest is he is going to deport 240,000 Ukrainians back to Ukraine for Putin to slaughter. Women, children and the elderly. The purpose? Pure cruelty.

I really don't care if Holic posts on the Tigers board or not, but the cheering on of federal employees firings, equivocation on past stances on the Russia-Ukraine based on Trump's views, change in views on inflation based on Trump being POTUS, punching down on trans people, it all speaks for itself.

Reminds me of a meme I saw. MAGA folks can be quite idiotic;

Almost as if he's financially or otherwise obligated to the Russian dictator

The civil servant making $50,000 = bad

Flying this dogebag, which costs the taxpayers over $177,000 an hour = good

And supposedly all the kids hired by DOGE were given a grade of GS-15!

That's $167,603 in annual salary.

Where's the "efficiency" in that?

This is a surefire way to get people comfortable working for a criminal gang: pay them really, really well.
