A few years ago, I quit contributing to the Tall Table. I was tired of the same old arguments. I continued to drop in occasionally to see what was being discussed. Most often, I dropped by just for some comic relief.

Well nothing has changed-- it has even gotten worse. The same 7 or 8 people sniping at each other with no hope of any kind of rational discussion. I'm tired of it and am calling it quits on following this forum.

To Needles: I blame the total deterioration of this forum firmly on YOU. You are the most disagreeable person I have ever seen, regardless of a political view. You turn every post and comment into a name-calling insult. You cherry-pick references to support your views. You insult comments and references given by other members. Half of your comments are outright lies without any supporting references. The words and terms that you use only show that you don't know what the true definitions of the words you use really mean. You are just an argumentative dumb-ass piece of sh*t of a person. I truly feel sorry for you.

Eeygore: I have no idea why you even hang around here. You try to be the voice of reason and discussion, but no one else is interested in reason and discussion.

The entire world operates on valid discussion and compromise. In general life, economics and politics, no one gets everything they want. Different sides have to make compromises that gives them some of what they want. There are no absolute winners and losers, but at least there is progress.

No one corners the market on good ideas. We should all be able to spot and support good ideas, no matter where they come from. Be enough of a man to admit when an idea is good or workable, but comes from someone you generally disagree with..

I am so disappointed and sorry for the shape of politics in this country. This forum is just a mirror of the sorry state we are in.

Enjoy hearing yourself talk. No one is listening and you are unable to convince any here with your arguments.

Do you honestly think we don’t know that?

Interesting these responses don’t exactly match his description.

Look, this is a form of entertainment. And like I said early when I got on here, this is eye-opening, because I’ve never run into people in the real world like I find on here. On the other hand, people behind screens don’t always act like they do in person.

You also build some form of a relationship on here after time. For example, I miss JOG, he had some of the funniest things ever written on here. I feel like I could sit down and have an actual beer at a bar store with Sew, or Eegore. I would like to talk to Mspring in person one day, because I can’t follow the indentation style of his posts. And I refuse to believe Thumper doesn’t have an original thought and goes through life speaking in one sentence talking points. Needles is a real world result Beavis and Butthead having a child.

For myself, I just try to write original stuff on here, or copy and paste interesting topics. I have a very conservative ideology, but I am not a MAGA in the sense some on here imagine a MAGA person is. I support Trump because I would never vote for a national candidate in favor of expanding abortion. That’s my number one issue. Also, I feel like Trump will protect the nation from outside forces better than anybody else. In the future, I feel like JD Vance or Marco Rubio will carry that mantle into the future.

As for Bobbert, I thought he first popped up just a couple of months ago. We had some exchanges but I didn’t know he’d been participating for years. I don’t remember him, but thanks for telling me goodbye. Which is unfortunate because we need more liberals on here.

 I agree.

Most MAGATs have let their religious beliefs slop over into the necessarily secular world of politics, so their judgment is impaired. They don't like having that pointed out. The Trumpedo corruption blindness is a dead givaway.
