Seems every thread involves political BS. We don’t talk football anymore because the thread is taken over with Political BS and name calling.

Sorry maybe I need to stay off or go somewhere better. I enjoy when when people can talk football or football related. Just venting

Despite our current, corrupt and crooked administration I agree.

Loyal Coug started it. Despite several posters telling him to stop, it continues.
 
Honestly...what keeps you up at night....Trump's indictments? Biden's "pay to play?" Where WSU will land in conference realignment? I know my answer and that's why I gloss over the political B.S. on this board. Honest to God I am still depressed over the Pac 12's demolition. I either need to switch to NFL or somehow have no emotional ties to CFB so I can gamble on all of the games. This SUCKS!

1. EVERYTHING is political these days.
2. There is no football yet.
3. There is no PAC 12 any longer.
4. Let's vent!

From the latest thread I see your pep talk worked about as well as a Rolo halftime adjustment.

Can't we have some of both? We are big boys, aren't we. If you don't like it, just ignore it. Simple! No one is forcing anyone to read a single politically related post. This isn't Clockwork Orange revisited. Hate to break it to you, a major part of the problem today is that it is too easy to have an unchallenged world view, the Google algorithm is specifically designed to feed you a steady diet of your world view, that's how Google makes more money. The only way of countering it is to be exposed to different views and ideas. If you don't like it, stay away, the answer to your distaste isn't to try to censor.

Except no one comes to a WSU football forum looking to challenge their personal, world view biases. There’s a place for that. This ain’t it.

true. Problem is there’s enough people who come here with the purpose of challenging everyone else before even thinking about WSU or football.

Except they are consistently the most viewed and the best attended threads on this board. This board survives because of its hand off approach. The football down times are filled in by social interest and politics posts, keeping posters returning for content during the 6 month off season. You can try to Cougfan it, and moderate the board into oblivion, or posters can take some personal responsibility, and moderate themselve. i.e. political/social, -- I'm in; or political/social -- I'm out. How hard is that? The censorship you propose will do more harm than good. A board that is dead or nearly so for 6 months each year, struggles.

Is that what we're calling Loyal's love life? Social interest?

Football interest drives them here, the varied content keeps them coming back, which is the winning formula. Even this, "Wah, politics should be banned/can't we just get along" thread, which ain't about football, BTW, is generating interest and content.

I don’t think anyone’s proposing censorship. I think the hope is that at some point every good thread isn’t ruined by someone making an off hand political comment then having it fly off the rails. I’ve seen topics posted specific to political stuff, vax/anti-vax, etc and those who want to participate can, those who aren’t interested don’t. It’s not such a hard concept but some people can’t help themselves.
