268. No one really cares about your posts on JPR

Sat Apr 15, 2017, 10:12 PM

Apr 2017

I am amused that you think that you represent JPR when you repeatedly claim that you disagree with the vast majority of the posters. JPR is a cesspool and the vast majority of the posters there are russian trolls, BOB, Stein supporters, Trump supporters and their ilk. You can voluntarily want to be associated with that cite and then any claims that you are different from the other posters on that site is not an effective defense of that site. That logic does not work. Steve-you may not be a typical JPR poster but that does not mean that many if not most of the other JPR posters are not jerks.

I am sorry for your health problems but your logic on this thread is not holding up. I have never looked at your room on JPR and have little interest in it. The only posts on DU from you that I click on are the occasional political cartoons.

Your attempts at defending the JPR website on this thread are not working. The facts simply do not back you up and you are mistaken if you think that anyone really cares about your JPR posts
