Okay I’ll bite.
You may not want to be protected but I don’t see you going out and spending thousands of hours of your own time and hundreds of your own dollars to support your cause. Someone has to stand up for free speech and protect everyone’s right to have it. I didn’t see anyone else doing it, so I did. saw that I needed help and so he stood up next to me and started helping.
So my answer is you may not want to be protected, but someone has to stand up for your right to make your arguments.
Also for the record I didn’t start this site for fun, I started it because as far as I am aware there isn’t another place on line that doesn’t censor in one form or another. I did it because it’s what I can do to make sure my kids have the right to free speech when they grow up.
Don’t get me wrong there have been a lot of fun times no question, I’ve met some pretty great people and learned a ton about a ton. I’d be willing to get if you give us here a chance even when we disagree we can all be civil and enjoy our time here.
This place isn’t about fighting with each other it’s about standing together to support our right to say whatever we want, it’s why you come here and post an unpopular opinion and no one brigades you.
So my answer is you may not want to be protected, but someone has to stand up for your right to make your arguments.
Perhaps you don't quite catch my gist... your is not standing up for my right to make arguments. Your fellow admin wants me to shut up and go away because I don't fit with his ill-thought-out anti-science ideology:
I'm here to protect poal from clown libtard NPC like you.
Do you want a "Protect Poal"? Someone to sort though opinions and thereby protect 'good' users from the 'bad' users? I'm sorry, but that not how free speech works - a 'protector' is a censor.
I'm asking the other users if they want to be 'protected' from a "clown libtard NPC" like me? So far all I'm getting is deafening silence and having some sort of emotional breakdown.
Again I think you are taking things far too seriously, I'm guessing a few people other than myself read what you post. I have enjoyed reading at least a few of the articles you have posted.
However you seem to be stuck in this us vs them mentality. calls you a clown because of how you respond. When presented with facts or arguments that contradict what you believe you seem to lash out and throw insults with your arguments, now I'm not saying you don't have a right to do that. You absolutely do. I would just like to point out that you could present your arguments in a respectful way and people may be more receptive too them. The hard line for free speech that requires people to stand up and say fuck you anyone can say anything, I got that, here on poal I'll protect that no matter what. You can be friendly if you want, we may not agree but that doesn't mean we can't be friends. Thats an important thing to see is that even if we can't agree we can still be american's together that want the best for each other. I genuinely wish you the best in life, and if fighting for conservation is the way you have the best life I wish you best of luck. I may not agree with everything you do but I still wish you the best of luck as I would ask you wish me the best of luck in my fight for free speech. believes in that fight for free speech. So as much as you two disagree I think you should be able to find common ground on that.
Best of luck I hope you manage to find peace here. I only ask that you try to stand with us. The best ideas will win out in the end. That is the beauty of the free market place of ideas.
When presented with facts or arguments that contradict what you believe you seem to lash out and throw insults with your arguments,
Surely you've encountered 's theory of global warming? That it's a all a Jew conspiracy, and that they control the world's scientists. He still hasn't put forward any motive for the all-powerful Jews spending so many shekels to completely suppress honest science globally and invent this global warming thing.
You'd expect that someone who puts out that sort of insanity can't be reasoned with, and I've found that to be the case. Thanks for supporting my right to call your fool a fool.
I only ask that you try to stand with us.
doesn't want me to stand with you - he wants me to go away, and stop reminding him of what science knows about the earth's climate and our effect on it.
The deleted comment below is mine, it said:

When have I done this."
I can see how it might look that way at first glance and think I've explained myself sufficiently below. Honestly nobody around here provided me with any "facts or arguments" that make me question my opinion on global warming in the least.
