Supreme Court's decision on Obamacare

[DM]

Perhaps your problem is looking to an online pokemon community for substantive debates and deep political knowledge. I, personally, have already engaged in a lengthy, educated debate about the merits and pitfalls of PPACA but have no desire whatsoever to do so in a community such as this one.

You're right, we're all retarded preteens. God forbid you lower yourself to engage any of us in a debate, as it's painfully obvious that it would be a huge waste of your time and nobody in this community is able to follow current events like any rational and informed citizen.

Your user title and this post seem to be aligned well, nothing to see here folks.

I'm in full agreement with Pwnemon's post. While I myself am not a huge fan of this bill, I have no interest in discussing that here. I already have spent plenty of time debating this with my liberal friends, and quite frankly, I'd rather debate it with them rather than debate it on an online Pokemon community out of all places. Plus, who wants to discuss politics on the internet?

i'm not saying i'm smarter than all of you but the fact of the matter is smogon is not very conducive to political debates and every time we have one it just turns into a shouting match before getting locked after five or six pages because the majority of posts include only ad hominems and no actual substance, and i don't want to repeat that.

 

[JimBob]

With that attitude, why are you even in this forvm?

"I didn't come to smogon to look at pictures of smogoners"
"I didn't come to smogon to talk about video game music"
"I didn't come to smogon to talk about drugs"
"I didn't come to smogon to have a rap battle"
"I didn't come to smogon to look at comics"

get over youself

The only reason why shouting matches happen is because people like you who think they know everything about anything pretend that everything they say is rational and legitimate and make themselves feel smarter by using big words and advanced prose, all the while making erroneous claims all over the place.

If I were a mod I would infract every single whiny post you made in this thread for trolling and being off topic.

lol for god's sake - If going out of your way to tell other people that you think they're too dumb to hold an intelligent debate with you doesn't show you're clueless I don't know what does.

also @ BlueTornado: Bush nominated Roberts for justice of the supreme court
