What is Digg?43 Comments
- Erythroxylum, on 06/13/2008, -7/+29Freedom of speech to lefties is like water to cats.
Anyway, back to the real article: Barack Obama ought to be careful; if he keeps upsetting these dictators and Islamic Terrorist groups, they'll stop having telethons to raise money for his campaign. Never upset your base. - Klingon00, on 06/13/2008, -5/+21Sky, I am disappointed in you. I had thought you where above these sorts of childish games but you proved me wrong.

It just goes to show that those who are weak of wit cannot be rational; must resort to tantrums and subversion to prevent reasoned debate. It's apparently no longer enough to simply bury these posts from LGF to prevent them from being seen, but now they must be hijacked too. Its sad, but it only reflects on who these folks truly are. - Klingon00, on 06/13/2008, -5/+19Back to the story at hand, I think its kind of amusing that Gaddafi has misunderstood Obama, considering he has later flip-flopped on his earlier "pro Israel" statements made in front of a Jewish group. It underscores for me how Obama is willing to say whatever he feels will appeal to his audience at the time. If that later offends someone in another group, he will just denounce it, throw it under a bus, saying he was misunderstood, or he had no idea.
- tex68, on 06/13/2008, -3/+15Liberalism is Fascism with a smiley face and a peace sign and you're too incompetent to know the difference.
- EIderofzion, on 06/13/2008, -7/+19it's interesting to know that this tactic is completely fine by the digg admins now thanks for showing conservatives how to play dirty asshat.
- Varilux, on 06/14/2008, -2/+13Aw. :(
Poor SkyReading getting his account banned.
Someone seems to have gotten their floral-patterned panties in a twist because someone called them on their infantile, passive-aggressive behavior. - EIderofzion, on 06/14/2008, -0/+7It seems Skyreading got his account banned for pulling the exact same stunt as you bullcutter,,, could someone else please email abuse@digg.com (preferrably from LGF) he is so much of a troll I can't even bother to spend the 30 seconds on him to fire an email off.
I'm surprised you haven't tried it yet cryrighttardcry,, or at least someone reported you on your daily dozen abbusive and threatening comments. - Vaak, on 06/13/2008, -3/+9So, are you advocating complete anarchy, or can you just not stand people abiding by rules?
Conservatives support freedom of speech, as well as rules. Break a rule here? Get punished. Can't stand that? Africa might be a suitable place for you. - Klingon00, on 06/13/2008, -2/+7Sky, you might be making sense if Digg allowed more than one link to a story, but it doesn't. By usurping the post with your opinion, you are effectively preventing LGF's message from being heard. There is nothing preventing you from writing your own blog and digging that if you feel you should have a counter message to LGF, and I would defend you if someone hijacked your posts on Digg as well.
I apologize for this discussion getting scattered around, I just wanted to try and catch you in a discussion, but I was apparently late to the game and wasn't sure if you'd check back.
Here is the rest of my response:
http://digg.com/political_opinion/LGF_seething_at_ ... - Klingon00, on 06/13/2008, -2/+7Bull, I have to give you props for at least being honest about your motives (Still doesn't make it right).
Sky, please see my response here:
http://digg.com/political_opinion/LGF_seething_at_ ... - Klingon00, on 06/13/2008, -4/+8Exactly Vaak, without rules and a way to enforce them, you don't really have freedom of speech anymore, much less civilization. There's no way to protect the speakers from the bully's of the world. After all, what's the difference between a bully and a tyrant?
Fascists like Hitler and Stalin both had something in common, a willingness to bully, break the law, and kill to gain political power and silence their opponents.
Anarchy can enable tyranny just as easily if not more so as socialism's big government rot. Freedom requires a balance between keeping the Government out of your business and preventing lawlessness. - sanddog, on 06/13/2008, -4/+8Bull, you need to get a life. Really, this LGF obsession makes me worry about you.
And by the way, get yourself to a dictionary and look up the definition of "fascist". - Ciannaky, on 06/14/2008, -2/+3Wait, what? Is the author of this post trying to make a cogent point? Are we to believe that one player on the international stage is representative of the whole and therefore LGF's attention to his opinion is somehow indicative of a double standard?
You people need to visit a doctors office or one of those reading centers where they teach comprehension and critical thinking skills - patpl22391, on 06/14/2008, -0/+1Stalin was a communist, like you! (he killed a lot more people than Hitler as well)
- spankaccount, on 06/14/2008, -2/+3You either don't know what the word Fascist means or you have never actually read an LGF article. Or your just another dumb Digg kid.
- EIderofzion, on 06/14/2008, -1/+1welcome to digg do try and read the end user agreement at some time,, how old are you?
- bullcutter, on 06/16/2008, -2/+1Arr I am Bullcutter the Terrible, tyrant and fat liberal/fascist, foe of civilization... Now I demand millions bow to my socialist/nationalist agenda unless they want to be considered enemies!!
- Ciannaky, on 06/14/2008, -1/+0Son, ya'll need an antifungal agent to clean up that filthy mouth of yours and a few shock treatments would do wonders for those brainless convulsions you consider intellectual responses. I hear Thorazine is doing wonders for your victim class(es),
- inactive, on 06/13/2008, -8/+4Thanks for pointing that out.
Fascists like Hitler and Stalin both had something in common, a willingness to bully, break the law, and kill to gain political power and silence their opponents.
And now the rightards on digg are trying to silence bullcutter by getting his account banned.
Gee, why does that seem familiar?
Oh yes, it's the same thing the rightards did to me. Point out their failures and lies and hypocrisy and they'll cry about it.
It ended up being too bad for them, tho. Now I don't even try to be polite, I just tell them what I think of them. While I'm sure the cowards block me, I still enjoy it.
Klingon, do you not see what a hypocritical ***** you are? Can you not see that you ARE a fascist?
Probably not, the over developed greed center in the rightard brain tends to push out rational thought. - inactive, on 06/13/2008, -8/+4LOL
Are you seriously that stupid?
No wonder rightard=failure!
It's amazing how the rightard ***** pretend they don't see any of McCain's actions.
Whatever, loser.
You just keep ***** now, then in November you and the other rightard cowards can put Obama stickers on your cars after McCain loses so your neighbors won't realize how stupid you are. - bullcutter, on 06/13/2008, -10/+5ballcutter you're an *****.
- bullcutter, on 06/14/2008, -6/+1Holy matzo balls that was an informative post. Thanks for that, I had never heard a lot of those little tidbits.
- inactive, on 06/13/2008, -7/+2That's the same as asking what do morals and ethics matter?
They don't, if you want to be a scumbag.
That's the choice LGF made. Why do you think the owner hides?
I wonder how much money he milks out of these rightard morons?
Thanks for posting, bullcutter. Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one disgusted by that cesspool. - bullcutter, on 06/13/2008, -9/+3unlike McCain, who has never reversed course on anything ever...
(pfft... who am i kidding HAHAHAHAHAHA... hypocritical much?) - inactive, on 06/13/2008, -9/+3Really?
Explain that.
I'd LOVE to find out how the rightard mind can equate liberalism with fascism!
Please, tell us all about this deep and complex rightard philosophy that manages to twist fascism into liberalism.
LOL
This from a rightard moron who somehow things liberalism is fascism, but the close parallels between fascists and the Bush regime is too difficult for him to figure out.
Good luck tying your shoes. Too bad you can't lie them into knots. - inactive, on 06/13/2008, -10/+4LOL
Yeah rightard, we all hate that freedom of speech.
That's why we support the ACLU, and you right wing dumbasses condemn it.
Freedom of speech is good, we all agree. You rightards think lefties don't like it because you dumbasses think that LIES qualify as free speech.
I dare you to show how the left is down on free speech.
I dare you to show ONE example of the left coming down on truthful speech.
The problem with rightard asshats is you losers think that ANYTHING you say is free speech. That's not the case. Any TRUTHFUL statement.
That's why you ***** fail. YOu can't be honest. Even now, this right wing loser Erythroxylum (isn't that an antifungal agent?) can't be honest about the content of the article, instead he tries to go off on some moronic comment about free speech.
WTF does free speech have to do with honesty, rightard?
Too bad you people didn't get a decent upbringing. In sunday school they taught us all about honesty and right and wrong. It would have been nice if the rightards could have gotten a taste of the Christian teachings. - Verchiel77, on 06/13/2008, -7/+1"I'd LOVE to find out how the rightard mind can equate liberalism with fascism!"
------------------------
The doughy pantload, Jonah Goldberg, told them so... - inactive, on 06/13/2008, -11/+4Which tactic?
Please, rightard shill, enlighten us as to what is wrong with calling LGF on their own words.
This is what the most f'd up part of the rightards is: when faced with the truth, they just blather lies.
COME ON, asshat!
WHAT TACTIC ARE YOU BITCHING ABOUT NOW?
And showing conservatives how to play dirty????
LOL
Man, if I were that dishonest I'd kill myself.
I guess you are one of those rightard shills who pretends he doesn't see GOP crimes. That's fine. We have very low expectations for rightards at this point. We expect that sort of blatant lying.
So are you proud of yourself for lying? Are you going to tell your friends abuot how you lied on digg today when presented with truth?
Man, what a pathetic loser you are. - bullcutter, on 06/13/2008, -11/+4what "tactic"? telling the truth about LGF?
- inactive, on 06/13/2008, -10/+31. a person who believes in or sympathizes with fascism.
2. (often initial capital letter) a member of a fascist movement or party.
3. a person who is dictatorial or has extreme right-wing views.
Sand, you need to get a clue. Really, this obsession with defending liars makes me worry about you.
What is #3 from dictionary.com? C'mon, you can do it. Sound it out.
And by the way, get yourself a brain. Since you are rightard it only has to be a tiny one. - bullcutter, on 06/13/2008, -12/+4LGF are the ones trying to get my account banned because they don't like what I'm saying... Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that makes THEM the fascists and you one as well for your complicit ignorance.
I thought you guys were into "freedom of speech..." Maybe you're the ones who love repressive regimes, and you're jealous because they all love Obama, according to LGF. Oh except for Gaddafi, of course. Hypocritical jackasses. - bullcutter, on 06/14/2008, -12/+3its more than calling somebody on their behavior, its crying to the admins that your feelings were hurt.
its like being called a poopyhead in the schoolyard, and instead of calling names back LGF ran to the principal to tattle tale.
this is because they do not have the intellectual or creative capacity to argue on their own, so they must have those with power and control intervene on their behalf....
... hmm... ironically this sounds suspiciously like totalitarian socialism if you ask me... - bullcutter, on 06/13/2008, -14/+4well, you're all officially a bunch of fascists.
its come to my attention that you've managed to get one of two voices of dissent kicked out of your Diggopoly.
conservatives claim to have a monopoly on protecting the freedom of speech, but when people say something they don't agree with its off to "Oops, what you're looking for isn't here!"-land for them, huh?
you should be ashamed of yourselves, for not just living a lie but for preaching one and passively accepting one as well. - bullcutter, on 06/13/2008, -15/+3you may have some valid points Kling, but I can't help but think they deserve it, and besides, its too much fun
- inactive, on 06/13/2008, -19/+4Again we see that disagreeing with or criticizing LGF is called subversion, abuse, tantrums and irrationality. Take a closer look at your double standard, friend.
Listen, Digg is a public forum and I can link to and comment on LGF with my own words and my own opinions without it being "hijacking". I don't know where you got the idea that only loyal lizards had the privilege of linking to LGF posts. - inactive, on 06/13/2008, -22/+5"Freedom of speech to lefties is like water to cats."
Riiiiiight. We don't scream "abuse" when you post your opinions on Digg. That's a wingnut tactic. - bullcutter, on 06/13/2008, -20/+3oops! i totally misread your comment, my bad!!
- NoDrama, on 06/13/2008, -29/+11The folks (or is it just one person?) responsible for littlegreenfoobars have an agenda. What does truth matter when you're on a mission?
- jbdobd, on 06/13/2008, -25/+6Republicans? Hypocritical?? Never!!
- bullcutter, on 06/13/2008, -24/+4the exact same question could be asked of LGF.
You're right, I am on a mission: to minimize the amount of ***** LGF gets away with.
Please explain "the truth" of the situation, since that's your thing and I'm apparently not privvy to it. - bullcutter, on 06/13/2008, -38/+11From LGF's title bar: "the internet needs filters"
yeah, when you're a wuss who's afraid of freedom of speech because certain words make you cry...
:_(
otherwise, there's filters built right into the internet. its called "not visiting sites you don't like."
and how do you know if you want to go to something or not if you've never been there? oh that's right, you just want to impose filters according to YOUR likings. who gives a ***** what everybody else likes, right?
Fascist dicks. - inactive, on 06/13/2008, -35/+7Well you know Obama's a bad character when LGF darling Muammar Gaddafi doesn't like him.
