Good morning, fellow comra—I mean, Denizens!
A friendly reminder, especially to new users but particularly to those who just cannot help themselves, that as the elections approach, it will become harder and harder not to share with the forum what your crazy uncle forwarded to you. Please remember this board is a NO POLITICS/CULTURE WAR ZONE, regardless of whether a thread is labeled “off-topic.”
Some might feel tempted to post their thoughts about politics, US culture, why the country is going to hell, etc.
However, it’s good to keep in mind:
- No one cares what you think about the election.
- No one cares what you think about libs/MAGA.
- No one cares why you think everything is terrible now.
Seriously. No one cares. Keep it to yourself. Or post somewhere else—in any of the infinite places online (like Elon’s hellsite) that host those kinds of conversations. BUT NOT HERE, (or at least not until @BigNatty runs for President, and then this will become his campaign HQ).
The quick and dirty on why we do this: because first and foremost this is a community of local and displaced fans. It’s an intentional distraction from the shit going on in the real world. Let’s live in the fantasy where the only thing that matters is the Lions winning a Super Bowl.
Anyway, love you all.
Go Lions.
