I do not downvoat unless it is utterly irrelevant to the discussion. In fact, I will often times upvoat a comment I disagreed with and replied to, just because its a discussion.
[–] TigrisMorte [S] ago
I applaud you. Sadly, you are in the minority as most just want to reinforce their circle jerk.

that's why sites like reddit and voat have a seriously broken voting system. Ppl downvote speech they don't agree with, so only popular speech floats to the top.
[–] TigrisMorte [S] ago
Yup, but best of all is how they preach about, "not a safe space", while actively trying to create one.

Ditto, sir, at least here. I try to be very careful only to downvote spam, and I try to upvote people who are getting downvoted for non-spam, even if I disagree with it.

[–] TigrisMorte [S] ago (edited ago)
"cuckold" You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuckold
So sorry to school ya', but you are a moron.
[–] kingtrumpiscoming ago
in your case it literally means your girlfriend sucks nigger dick in front of you while you hold her hair for her...
[–] TigrisMorte [S] ago
Sorry was that "Waah, my penis is too small to think on my own", are you just a useless shit for brains?
[–] kingtrumpiscoming ago
libtards = downvoats, this isnt a safe space.
[–] TigrisMorte [S] ago
But you'll do your part to make it one, won't you. 'cause you're a good little coward whose scared of free speech.
[–] kingtrumpiscoming ago

[–] TigrisMorte [S] ago
Way to switch around what is going on here while you try to protect your safe space.
[–] kingtrumpiscoming ago

The answer to any speech against trump is downvotes. Trump is perfect. He embodies all that is sacred in the human race. His cock is 37 cm long on a cold day. Fuck off you beta cuck libtard poopyface.
[–] TigrisMorte [S] ago
Of course he is to the "never actual researched but saw him on TV once and he expressed my hate so well" crowd. Good little brown shirt looser, go on an elect Hillary. Well done.
[–] TigrisMorte [S] ago
Well said, and you hit all the reasons Trumpettes love him so.

Its so true! I've been called a leftist, a nigger, a cuck etc. The best part is though, I'm a centrist, I think both wings have good points and bad points.( I also think the whole election farce is ridiculous) I'm a third Gen Canadian from a solely Scottish background (Traced back to Olaf the Black) and I'm a Dom.
But hey, as long as it fits their narrative. Facts don't come into play.

Yeah, hear you, I have been called a wingnut and moonbat in the same thread.
