[QUOTE=GenPol;36406908]Keep straw manning. This is exactly why I'm looking for another forum. About 1/3 people are OK, such as the ones arguing for universal health care in my health care thread in mass debate. However, about 2/3 of them are libertarians and anarcho-capitalists, and say that 'government enforcement theft (taxation) is worse than people dying'. And on top of that, they respond and try to correct me with wrong definitions, without stating any source, which is the funniest of them all. And on top of that, they're so sure of themselves when they do their corrections, despite these corrections contradicting all the established definitions up to date. And I feel truly sorry for you if you don't even know what circular reasoning is. The lack of knowledge of the common logical fallacies, as well as the general lack of skepticism is what causes such crackpottery in the mass debate.[/QUOTE] Not nearly 2/3s of Facepunch are Libertarians or Anarcho-Capitalists, I would love to ask you where you believe that. Most are left-sided liberals, and believe that Universal Healthcare is a good thing. When a thread is about a certain topic, and Libertarians or Anarcho-Capitalists agree or disagree with the OP, of course you're going to find them arguing for or against their opinion. Again, [I]that's the fucking point of [B]MASS DEBATE[/B][/I]. If you want a bunch of people arguing for and not against your position, then don't go to a debate section. Yelling that people are straw manning or using circular reasoning (I understand what it is, I'm not a dolt) is all you do, instead of addressing their points. Most people who argue against UHC believe that the private market provides the services cheaper per individual than taxation, as they have to deal with competitive rates and services. They also believe that no individual or group has the ability to coerce labor from you (money is labor, after all). They believe you shouldn't have to work to provide for other people's benefit. There's a debate there. That's what a debate forum is for. Stop complaining that people are doing what they're supposed to do in the right section. If you don't want a debate, don't go to the damn section. It's not hard to get.

[QUOTE=GenPol;36398040]You see, 'people here' isn't a homogeneous entity. I was talking about the demographics, and not saying that every single person thinks so. For this reason, I'm hoping that some people would list better forums than Facepunch, because there are still rational facepunchers.[/QUOTE] I felt the same way about Facepunch when I joined. You'll just have to realize a LOT of people here probably don't think the same way you do, but some might. When you find those people, you'll probably tend to hang around in the same thread/section for a while and feel more comfortable. At least that's how it is for me now.

Everyone shut up, and come to my forum.

Gaia Online, there's a TON of well informed, highly intelligent and mature people there :downs:

[QUOTE=Radley;36405674]lemonparty.org[/QUOTE] God dammit. I've already seen that, but for some reason felt I had to see it again. [editline]20th June 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=KingdomBanned;36407673]Everyone shut up, and come to my forum.[/QUOTE] I don't wanna post about turtles!

[QUOTE=KingdomBanned;36407430]I have made a [URL="http://faceshit.proboards.com/"]forum.[/URL] It is the best one ever.[/QUOTE] There is an epic thread about turtles

[QUOTE=GenPol;36406726]Yes. I'm looking for forums which have very little anarchists, libertarians, 9/11 conspiracy theorists, Ron Paul supporters, etc. Any forums with such demographics are more than welcome.[/QUOTE] Do you really think anyone in Facepunch does that in a non-ironic way?

[QUOTE=jbthekid;36407710]God dammit. I've already seen that, but for some reason felt I had to see it again. [editline]20th June 2012[/editline] I don't wanna post about turtles![/QUOTE] YOU ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT TURTLES, AND YOU WILL LIKE IT

[QUOTE=jbthekid;36407710] I don't wanna post about turtles![/QUOTE] Then make another thread?

i should set up an entire thread about my forum. IT WILL GET SO MUCH BETTER THEN THIS NERDY FORUM! it will be like anyone rejected from American Idol, only I will ACTUALLY BE BETTER!
