Crypto losses, underemployment, victims of misinformation on vaccines&public health measures, financial illiteracy, mental health issues, error in interpretation of statistical studies (and will never understand why)
At the end of the day we are all friends here. Just joking and goofing off, some take it a little too far but truly believe the majority is meant in good fun
Wrong.
I'm not your friend and I'm not playing.
This Is not fun for me.
This is my real self and view.
But what are you so mad about? Did something happen? For all I know, you might just be a normal person with opinions that are worth just as much as anyone else's. But instead you are always posting these angry screeds about how "nobody is going to take away your voice" as if that was a real concern. You don't have to keep telling us that your "voice counts too!" since I don't think anyone is trying to silence you. Or did I miss something?
p.s. If it is not fun for you, why would you ever come to this website?
Its not the average, its an extreme minority of pathetic douchebags, less than 20, who own the majority of the defamation, hateful, antisocial, creepy, racist, spiteful, and misogynistic posts.
I wish that the brojos would just out them in the public square once and for all. Then banish them forever. They add nothing to the sport or to this website.
The majority of lrc posters are decent,, thoughtful and kind fans.
Seriously brojos eliminate the trolls once and for all.
This! Maybe make the message board public? No more anonymity. I hate the posts that hijack decent threads.
Get rid of them. I want them to delete posts that make unfounded, specific, drug accusations. I like the discussion but when someone makes a specific unfounded accusation it's just wrong.

I think you're generally right--there are a few, but they apparently love to post insults, and destroy intellectual discussion.
I'm not sure the site has much moderation, and it clearly has no rules against the constant ad-hominem attacks, and the hilariously ludicrous racist and conspiracy theories that are generally filled with insults.

You say that these posters are a minority and that you don't like them...hmmm, I guess you don't like minorities.

I am fairly certain at least some of the trolls are mods themselves.
Do they really have nothing better to do with their time?
I think that people from Gen X just have a thicker skin and are generally more insensitive, so welcome across as angry when we’re just being sarcastic. That can cause offense and misunderstandings at times. This website is founded by X people.
I think later Generations have less tolerance for frustration than previous ones do. I f I see something racist/trans phobic/homophobic posted, I report it and move on. I don’t think that the brojos embrace those views but they are more tolerant of freeish speech. If I don’t like something that I see here, I ignore it or don’t come back for a while.
What bothers me the most is that I see a surprising amount of young people posting here who have what I see to be an extremely negative and pessimistic mentality. Emotive arguments are much more important to them than facts. For example, it’s not enough to not be racist, you must be explicitly antiracist. They are sure that we’re going to hell in a hand basket and they are unaware of the reality of their circumstances. By world standards, we are all insanely rich. We have shelter, food, internet access etc. I see an inability to look past our problems and be grateful for what we do have. This comes across as entitlement and snowflaky to older people.
So I don’t think things are so bad here. Mostly a matter of perspective.
I also think Xers (those born between '63 and '80) had to be tough because they were the first latchkey kids in the '70s and '80s and had to grow up in a tough world at that time. Many of them now run companies and are execs. Millennials and Zoomers report to them.
