It's common for papers to refuse work if it doesn't meet specifications for having enough facts to back up statements, having clear political biases, etc.


Hello. I'm part of the secretive cabal of leftists that push the mainstream liberal agenda. I downvoted you because it is our mission to silence conservative-friendly voices wherever we see them.

We pay particular attention in forums such as this one, where bringing politics into random discussions is encouraged and welcomed.


Parent comment has been updated, but it's too late to edit mine, turning my mildly amusing mockery into an unhinged-sounding non sequitur. Well, this is what happens when you take the low road...


I've got a good idea, lets put a left/right spin on every post, for no reason at all, and only when it has nothing to do with the discussion.

And when we are inevitably voted down, lets pretend it is a big conspiracy.


To make it even more obvious, we can left align the left/liberal posts, and right align the right/conservative news. Add a fun twist. In the middle, on the bottom of the screen there's you, Space Invaders style. You have to shoot your way through left- and right-aligned posts, until you get killed by the left or the right.


Please someone make this.


The hard part would be classifying the posts, the rest would be trivial. What would be a good approach?


Please don't fan the flames when someone unnecessarily injects partisan politics.


Please don't inject partisan politics unnecessarily.

Edit: parent comment was updated to remove partisanship. Thanks!
