Articles & Happening Meta Discussion

Articles & Happenings is the third attempt at a news board on the Kiwi Farms. It is a cursed place. Every moderator who has been assigned here has resigned within a year. During 2016, the political crossfire was so bad it spread to different boards and culminated in me banning American news discussion entirely for several months. It has been deleted in its entirety twice. There is no actual discussion here, it's people posting garbage. It leans much further right than the rest of the site and doesn't particularly conduct discussion because dissenting opinions are dogpiled by a thousand memelords posting shit they read on /pol/ without any critical analysis.

The only rules that can be enforced are empirical ones with boolean violation answers. New threads must cite a real source directly and must use the headline of the article as a thread title without any editorializing. Articles must be archived in some way and must link to the original article. Replies that are one word or a reaction images are automatic one-month bans from the board.

I'm creating this now because it seems like this place is here to stay and is one of the largest areas of the entire site. I might as well throw in bare minimum effort to improve it. I don't even try to find mods for here because they will quit, without exception. I've added new prefixes ("Business" and "Crime") just now.

Discuss.


New threads should be made like this.

It's weird how avatars impact posts, and I didn't notice just how weird until this happened. I'm having trouble finding the specifics, but everyone seems less credible. Do I build identities for avatars based on previous posts, or is it just the 'newbies don't have avatars and are potentially idiots' concept punched into overdrive? Those are similar, but driven by different impulses I think.
It takes me at least a third of a second longer to notice it's one of those gimmickposting faggots without the avatar
 
People really, really need to learn to ignore bait.

Literally 99% of tuscangander and Arm Pit Cream's current output is bait.

I’m fine with bait. It’s the contrarians who post their ice cold takes and then cry and report when their big brained theories get challenged or shut down who are worse.

@tuscangarder is easy to spot out.

@Arm Pit Cream is harder because he's actually a serious poster who has made some pretty good threads...until you get to the political threads.

The same letters will have different shades of color for different users, but there's some overlap. For example, @Arm Pit Cream is turquoise, and so you can tell it is a waste of a thread.

Outside of the debate threads, which of her threads haven't been crap?
 
Ummmm...the Projared thread? There's another thread too, but I can't remember.

Also @Arm Pit Cream is a chick?

Either a woman or one of those super catty gay men with how they behave. They seemed to dislike tuscangarder saying they were a dude, and hates me for not hiding my gender on here. So, I am guessing a woman. 🤔

Ah, once again I see the different opinion=baitposting meme, I forgot how we all had to play this ironic character only meant to antagonize others. I don't think you're use to being around people with different perspectives.

Neither is Armpit queen.
I don't recall asking for your newfag opinions? Nobody cares what you think about my threads or posts for the 100th time this week you obnoxious salty nigg.er, you really never shut up about me and my alt according to you @tuscangarder, how does it feel to be seething for months?
Stop trying to act like you have read many threads, you joined in December.

You said earlier yesterday
Who knew laughing at your dyke ass chimping out about stickers would upset you so much? I can't believe that you're still ass hurt about it over a month later. Holy shit are you mad.

BTW, just gonna leave this here


So not only am I not being constantly mistaken for a guy like your ugly manjaw, but odds are that I would be considered more attractive on average in comparison to your butch ass.

:story:
Lol I get it, you fuck white guys, cool. I'm a dyke, then regular woman, then a catty fag, then a woman again. You've spent more time in the last 24 hours considering my gender and sexuality then I have my entire life.
It's funny how the first thing everybody with a smidgen of intelligence but not enough to be meaningful will immediately point to anybody with anti-gay opinion being a projecting homosexual.
 
Why the fuck am I being talked about in here?

I don't post bait. I post things from a communist perspective. You people can't handle anything but a right wing circle jerk. It is sad. Go real pol if that is what you want. This isn't a right wing safe space.

People start autistic fights with me and then I get blamed for it.

Far left opinions does not equate to bait. Grow a brain.

You've been a-logging me for a month straight because I rated you autistic in one of your threads, then laughed at you when you kept revenge rating me. You apparently did the same to @UnKillFill because you care way too much about stickers.

And you're right, I have no idea what you are, because I don't care about you. I just throw out whatever random insult comes to me when you try for the hundredth time to make me mad about my race, like I haven't heard worse growing up. That shit doesn't bother me, like at all, but I get a kick out of you continually spamming my profile page like some kind of intersex incel.

I will let you in on a little secret, tho'. The tuscangarder alt comment was a joke. I just never corrected you because you kept screeching about it. I wasn't even trying to insult you then, but you've been raging about it for weeks like a rețard.

You've given me a lot of autistic rates, your theory doesn't make sense and I've already denied that. You're the one who stop going on about stickers, maybe I just don't like your low quality posts or that you say nothing of value which largely results in you bitching about people like you know shit. You haven't read any thread or posts I made before December, why would I listen to you?

I have only commented on your profile after you've regularly shit talked me, I'm open about the fact I dislike you, you're too big of a pussy to even tag me in your daily random insults. Now I'm a tranny incel? Ok lol

By 'secret' I think you mean cope, I laughed at you for being autistic enough to write that I was a tuscan alt because you mentioned it in multiple posts. I don't think 1 profile post laughing at you is by any means "screeching", but you live in this different reality. The fact you have to misportray one post as "screeching" is funny.

They seemed to dislike tuscangarder saying they were a dude, and hates me for not hiding my gender on here. So, I am guessing a woman. 🤔
Never said that about Tuscan lol, keep your story straight
Well are you a projecting homosexual? You seem to be acting like one.
No, I think that just you being one yourself. What I said about the smidgen part does apply to you.
