With the move here to Poal, I wanted everyone to get settled in before doing any mod-like things besides removing those that hate, mock, or sneer at us through their words.

The sidebar on the right needs a bit of work. If anyone would like to work with me on wording or rules or clarifications or links, I'm happy to accept the help.

ON THE SIDEBAR is a nice little legal(not-legal)/cancel-culture disclaimer that doubles as a Voat-PV disclaimer. Feel free to read through it and forget about it entirely as you post here.

For those of you that notice shill/anti-Q/anti-Trump activity, PLEASE ping me to it and don't respond sarcastically (or at all). Responding sarcastically makes YOU look anti-Q when I browse through your comment history. Mistakes were made, and many apologies were had; not fun. If you want to engage them, feel free to post anything pro-Q outside of here and you'll have PLENTY of those types to banter with.

How to ping: @Crensch <--- that's a ping. Place it anywhere in your comment and I'll get a notification.

Also on the sidebar are posting rules. Please pay attention to them. Too many low-effort/no-context/unsupported-claim posts and I'll have to do mod things.

I don't want to do mod things beyond removing those that hate us.

As a community, try and help each other raise the bar for posts. If you posted and someone is telling you that your post is lacking, it could be that your post is lacking. It could be that they're wrong. Work it out if you can.

Let me know what you all think below.

Thanks

Yes, short. Look at the vast amount of information available to us at our fingertips. Look at the vast amount of information in our news feed.

There's still only 24 hours in the day and most people don't want to spend time reading a 10,000 page book if they can read some Cliff Notes. For me, as long as I can go and confirm the data, I'm much happier with someone giving me a quick overview.

I find most of the time, the long research presented is just confirmation of what I already know. More data points that I know won't help convincing anyone if the stuff I already know about the subject doesn't convince them.

You certainly can. I'll be happy to rewrite it or meme some of it as a proof-of-concept. Ideally, researchers could find users that aren't good at researching but are good at writing or meming and ask them for help.

Very kind of you. Thanks :-)

This may be a little "off" of your goals for this sub, but you raise an important point. There are many Patriots with various talents that require a complementary talent to get it into a presentable form. Someone might have great meme ideas but lacks the graphics skills to put it together. Maybe someone's skilled at video, and someone else has great content. The left has all kinds of resources available to help people find their complement - We could do better with that. Would you consider a sticky with talents people are willing to collaborate with?

I would.

Keep after me on this as I'm easily distracted.

More accurately, I'm always spinning too many plates.

I'd be happy to help with something like this in any way possible.
