/pol/ is too right wing and anything considered 'leftist' is shilled and shitposted too hard.
Can we have a gommie board pls Mr Mook?
>we can't outsmart on arguments the opposition
>better have a new board for us instead of stepping up our game
>>452833
you already have /int/
>>452840
>/int/
>gommie
try to make a thread like that on /int/ and you'll get btfo
that's not right wing
that's reactionary dope
>>452838
It's not so much the case of left vs right. It would be more about another perspective. Like it or not, a lot of /pol/ are on autopilot these days.
>>452844
I like how you try to argue when you are wrong by using /pol/ in the first place.
Go have a hobby or something.
>>452842
just how pathetic are you to get btfo by a reddit containment board
>>452852
>reddit containment board
>>452846
Like lurking the /qa/ section of a Mongolian knitting forum?
>>452833
no, go back to 8gag
>>452838
Logical arguments don't work with /pol/ types. Logic is just algebra of facts after all, and any facts that can't be used to support /pol/'s agenda are dismissed as being invalid or part of a SJW conspiracy.
>>452838
Keep telling yourself that.
>>452949
"facts"
Please make a /leftypol/, or at the very least: a news board that is politically neutral
Plenty of people argue on /pol/ already, but we dont want a board for arguments with the majority of the userbase disagreeing with us, we want a board where we can cirlcejerk just like stormfags can.
>>452959
You have a neutral board, it's called /news/.
Also a /leftypol/ would be far slower than /pol/.
Its true, you can't talk left on /pol/. And who gives a fuck if its sort of slow; look at the fucking cooking or travel board for Christ sake.
>>452958
Yes, even studies in peer-reviewed journals are rejected based on the idea that the scientific establishment are controlled by SJWs. Which means youtube videos are the most credible, objective source on any issue.
>>452981
"studies"
>>452986
>being this "much" of a massive "faggot"
>>453007

>>452833
Yes
>>452833
I think this would add some good contrast to 4chan and help get rid of the stereotype everyone on 4chan is a fascist.
I would be a frequent poster at least.
>>452833
I second this, primarily for the massive hurt it would cause /pol/s tender, tender butthole. Kek, those faggots can't stand criticism.
Any leftist discussion on /pol/ would be shitposted to oblivion. /leftypol/ is needed to actually bring some other forms of political conversation to the site. I'm in favour of this.
>>452833
How would you have a leftypol? Just ban any right wing opinions from the board? That's the only way you'd be able to prevent it from becoming another /pol/.
>>453044
>implying there are no leftists on 4chan
>>453044
>implying banning /pol/ would be a bad idea
>>452833

>actual users fuck off because it's a shitfest
>the board becomes /b/
>>453066

>>453070
one of the very first goals of the board will be to show 4chan that liberals are not leftists
>>453036
>"can't stand criticism"
>wants a board where anyone disagreeing with him is banned because he can't handle the bantz
>>452833
Grow a spine faggot, if you can't take the banter and people challenging your world view to the point you have actually make an effort to defend it through critical thinking.
You want a goddamn hug box, fuck off to some other site if that that's the case.
I support this
What you stormkike faggots need to understand is that we arent SJWs. I mean for fucks sake every three days we have a thread saying "Idpol is breddy shit rite guise?"
>>453082
>wants a board where disagreeing is banned
nobody wants that. people just want a board that is not a nazi masturbation fantasy
>>453085
This is exactly why we want our own board. Do you honestly think that the faggots on /pol/ wont be attacking the board every five seconds? It will be like a moth and a lightbulb.
>"You want a goddamn hug box, fuck off to some other site if that that's the case"
With our own board we can actually answer any questions people might have instead of being shot into oblivion because we are "fucking kikes"
Besides, half the time /leftypol/ cant stop arguing with itself so i doubt that it will ever become a hugbox
You have your /leftypol/ and le funny images of dead pinkos laughing at skyscrapers over at the chan that shall not be named
>>453096

>>453098

>>453100
>it's the spook autist
>>452833
Yes, all we need is to create a second echo chamber for militant fucks from the other end of the political spectrum. We don't have enough internet activist breeding grounds yet.
>>452949
>logical arguments
>pol
Looks like you have been memed. Stay mad.
>this board gets made
>it becomes another board to blame whatever on
As if /pol/'s mere existence doesn't cause enough butthurt around here. This idea is fucking stupid and such boards exist elsewhere, anyway.
>>453091
If you can't maintain a thread without it being overrun and causing you to give up. Then you sure as hell don't deserve your own board.
>>453085
You wouldn't know what a hugbox was if it came up and fucked your mouth
>>453240
i'm your mother's hugbox
If a leftypol does get made, it'll just be taken over immediately by /lgbt/ and /co/. It would also attract a large amount of people from Reddit.
>>452986
You're just proving my point. You think some random guy on Youtube is more credible than scientific consensus just because you agree with what he says.
>>453044
Actually enforce the "keep /pol/ in /pol/" rule and ban any /pol/-tier posts from other boards. That's the only way for it to function as a containment board.
>>453070
By /pol/'s own logic that they apply to immigrants, /pol/ should be banned. We've given them plenty of time to integrate, which they have made no attempt to do, so it's time for them to go.
>>453082
More like wants a board where any leftist or liberal opinion isn't immediately overwhelmed with shitposting.
>>453245
I don't see how that's a bad thing, if it can be a containment board for those types. /lgbt/ is tired of being used as /leftypol/.
I agree with /leftypol/ just to provide balance too /pol/ who dominate the narrative on 4chan.
Also debating actual politics on /pol/ is fucking tedious as fuck because you will just be actually shitposted off the board with >>>/reddit/ or SPOT THE SJW or Stormfront image dump spam.
I honestly don't get why the right wing get to have their own board because they shitposted /int/ to death with AMIWHITE shit.
>>452949
This desu.
>cite medical sources or statistics
>/pol/ tells me it's a leftist conspiracy
>>452833
this is a bad idea.
i mean one of the main reasons /leftypol/ on 8ch was created was because of the fact that /pol/'s mod's were nazis and decided to censor shit
4chan's /pol/ never tried banning leftists because they're not fucking stupid
>>453363
>4chan's /pol/ never tried banning leftists because they're not fucking stupid
Despite that, it's impossible to have left wing discussion on /pol/ because you will just be shitposted off the board by stormfags.
I think a trial /leftypol/ for a few weeks is a good idea.
>>453363
Why ban people when your users can drown them in ideology
>>453319
By /pol/ logic you should be banned. You have to go back.
>>453044
Tough one. Active moderation I guess. If the mods got ban-happy they'd ruin their own credibility.
>>453511
except this isnt /pol/ bucko
>>453521
Back to le reddit
>>453522
And now we see the classic response of telling someone to go to reddit when you have no more good arguments to make
Well done
>>452833
>tfw left leaning on /pol/ and don't give a shit
If anything the majority will remain on /pol/ just to troll. You're pretty much asking for mods on /pol/ to censor left-leaning arguments just to redirect them to a separate opinions board.
>>453511
Yes, because /pol/ logic is that anyone who disagrees should be silenced or ignored, because it's not free speech if it's "shilling" or "promoting degeneracy".
>>452838
calling each other cucks is outsmarting them?
>>452833
No, fuck off back to your containment boards /b/, /lgbt/ and /mlp/ you worthless faggot.
How about better moderation in /pol/ instead?
We should be able to have a Bernie Sanders thread that isn't full of people shitposting. If you start a Gundam thread on /a/, it's a discussion between people who enjoy Gundam. If someone came in there and started saying "lel fucking gundacucks and your shitty mecha trash" then they would be promptly banned.
>>453729
And in turn pissing off the userbase, making them salty enough to pack their bags and leave for another board? Another site entirely? No, the mods would be committing suicide if they did this
>>453729

I agree with you though, OP is a massive thin-skinned faggot
>>452833
no fuck off
/pol/ is for political discussion, if there aren't enough lefty fucking shits there to make you feel like you have yet another leftist safe space on the internet, then too bad
there are already a decent amount of leftists on /pol/. legitimate discussion of the economic left is had (the board worships the national socialists of nazi germany for christ's sake). discussion of socially left things are brought up, but almost everyone on the board, even the economic leftists, just doesn't support it. but that's not the fault of the board, or reason to create another one.
>>454066
would also like to add that all the posts ITT saying how leftist discussion is just shitposted to death on /pol/ (which is probably just one guy samefagging considering there aren't that many posters ITT) likely hasn't even used /pol/.
>>454067
It's a fast board, with lots of different discussions. If you only see shit posting it means you probably only open shit posting threads.
Lefty /pol/ would either become a Communism circlejerk or just become Bizzarro /pol/
Either way, Probably shouldn't happen, the great thing about /pol/ is the fact that people of different political opinions can bitch at eachother about which side is the most correct.
>>454134
It won't.
/leftypol/ on 8ch is just endless fighting between anarchists, marxists and reformists, it is definitely not a circle jerk.
>>454052
OP isnt thin skinned, we just want a place thats able to have a genuine discussion of theory without threads immediantly being derailed because we are "fucking joos" and free from Hotwheels fucking our shit up
>>454062
>implying /pol/ isnt a Nazi hugbox that protects them from da joos and niggers
>>454167
>>454171
/pol/ is absolutely not a Nazi hugbox, the only people who think this are those who don't actually use the board and just believe what everyone tells them about it. There is a universal feeling of nationalism for our nations, that much is common in almost every poster, but there are considerably less NatSoc posters than there were a few years ago. Nowadays /pol/ is mostly lolbertarians and neocons.
Gommunist killer 20million people . Jews, kurds, kazaks and russians ...
Why would somebody endorse this?
>>454176
there just weren't enough people browsing at the time you made the thread to keep it afloat and shitpost free. the board just doesn't respond well to leftism all the time. this isn't an exclusive behavior to /pol/ though. i'm sure if i went over to /v/ and started a thread about how much i love like phone games or some casual shit, or /mu/ and how i just can't get enough of nickleback, or go on /a/ and start a thread about how much of a masterpiece naruto is, legitimate in my intents or not, i'd be called a faggot and a viraller and my threads wouldn't go well either.
none of this changes the fact that /pol/ is for politics. there doesn't need to be a board for every school of thought. leftist ones are no exception.
>>454179
This post gave me cancer
>>454178
Nice meme
>>454180

>>454179
You can't have a board for politics without debate, and you can't have debate without an at least somewhat civil discussion. Which is something hard to come by here on 4chan.
And I maintain that it is almost impossible to reason with someone who has decided that your opinion was false even before you stated it - and this include leftists as much as right-wingers. You can't have one thread implying that the refugees are a threat to the western civilisation (to put it mildly) and another one discussing the International Revulution and structural racism without an hefty dose of shitpost.
>>454183
okay, so if you can't have a debate without at least a bit of civil discussion, what's the point of this proposed board then? you say it's hard to come by on 4chan, but if you were to make another board for this, that would completely isolate both sides, eliminating all possibilites of debate ever happening. it would make /pol/ into a bigger circlejerk, and create yet another internet leftist circlejerk, which we don't need on this site. why? there is no point to that, and only serves to be detrimental.
>>454184
The thing is, and I'm going to get trouble for it, I don't think any discussion can arise without heavy moderation (removing insults, removing low-quality posts, etc...) And that's hardly 4chan's culture.
I think it's better to have a space for discussing between like-minded people - there are many debates between leftists themselves and also between right-wingers. With, of course, the interdiction of raiding other boards strictly enforced.
>>454191
at that point i would just recommend going to a different website. as you said, that's not our culture, anons typically don't react well to being censored. i don't think the potential debate between various shades of left ("95% tax is best!" "nu uh faggot 99% or go home", and so on) is worth making a new board for. it's going to end up a circlejerk, and that's something to try to avoid.

>>>/trash/
>>452833
Do you know why /pol/ doesn't have any leftists or communists on it?
Because people on /pol/ actually care about politics enough to know communism doesn't fucking work.
Communism and socalism are trap ideologies for collage kids who think politics is trendy.
For the record, we do let National Socalists post because they understand how to make a functioning socalism, but for the most part /pol/ in recent years has been libertarian and conservative.
>>454599
>>Because people on /pol/ actually care about politics enough to know communism doesn't fucking work.
0/10
>>454605
Provide me one example of communism working on a very large scale.
Don't give me the whole "BUT M-MUH COMMUNISM IN MUH HEAD HAS NEVER BEEN TRIED" or "B-BUT THIS ONE PLACE IN AFRICA WITH 20 PEOPLE IS COMMUNIST" either.
>>452840
/int/ is just /pol2.0/ literally because /int/ (and /his/) have the shittiest mods in existence who don't do their fucking job.
/lit/ was the closest to /leftypol/ but ever since /his/ any left discussion has been heavily cracked down upon on that board and /his/ has already become /his/tory themed /pol/ revisionism and thinly veiled race bait threads.
>>454609
This is /qa/ /pol/faggot. I'm not going to get into an argument with an ignorant /pol/faggot who won't ever pick up a fucking history or political science book.
>>454151
8ch /leftypol/ is whining about identity politics, throwing huge swaths of Socialist thought out the window because it doesn't mesh with Gamergate faggotry and mods who ban literally anyone that disagrees with them on any topic.
i discuss lefty shit on /pol/ all the time and don't get blown the fuck out because i'm not a retard that makes bait-tier posts and can't back up their arguments.
it's not your views it's your constitution, in other words git gud and /pol/ won't seem so intolerant and scary.
yes people will hurl insults, this happens on every board don't be a bitch.
i bet you're one of the guys who makes a bernie thread and cries when /pol/ calls him a big bad commie, only attempting to back up your claims with rick&morty edits.
>>454617
Yeah nice try /pol/fag.
I've posted LITERAL SCIENTIFIC STUDIES on /pol/ and what do you get? "LOL PSYCHOLOGY SCIENCE", "LOL BIOLOGY SCIENCE", "LOL ANTHROPOLOGY SCIENCE", "LOL SOCIOLOGY SCIENCE".
The idea that /pol/ reacts to reasoned arguments and evidence is so hilariously bullshit it's not even really worth considering. /pol/ is so reactionary and anti-intellectual the board doesn't even believe in climate change.
>>454612
8/pol/ does the same shit, it comes with the territory of having user created boards and a global mod team that only cares about cp, leaving the the board owners and their hired goons to moderate how they see fit(seems a lot like reddit from my angle, their non legacy boards like /vvv/ and /xpol/ are pretty good thou)
>>454626
because you likely posted biased sources, or sources from pseudoscientific fields that can be easily discounted(like psychiatry/psychology)
why does it always have to be about convincing people? can't you just discuss a topic without trying to change someone's mind?
>/pol/ is so reactionary and anti-intellectual the board doesn't even believe in climate change.
>the board as a whole doesn't believe in climate change
>not a fringe minority that /x/ told to fuck off
I bet you think the flatpill fags and fringeposters are /pol/acks too.
>>454639
>because you likely posted biased sources, or sources from pseudoscientific fields that can be easily discounted
Yeah, scientific journals are bias for /pol/ because they disagree with stormfaggotry and /pol/faggots preheld beliefs.
>Fields that disagree with me a psuedo-scientific
Says the /pol/faggot that probably holds up racial theory.
>not a fringe minority that /x/ told to fuck off"
Yeah, right, why literally every climate change thread on /pol/ is just denialism and NWO shitposting.
>why does it always have to be about convincing people? can't you just discuss a topic without trying to change someone's mind?
Funny, when us lefties are discussing things ourselves, who comes marching into our threads with low tier bait like "COMMUNISM HAS NEVER BEEN TRIED", "MUH HUMAN NATURE", "POINT OUT COMMUNISM THAT HAS WORKED" and then we get Bolsheviks are wall street jew image dumps until we have to leave because it's impossible to continue discussing things in the thread.
The idea that /pol/ has rational and reasoned discussion is absurd.
>>454701
>Yeah, scientific journals are bias for /pol/ because they disagree with stormfaggotry and /pol/faggots preheld beliefs.
pseudoscience is going to get laughed at by anyone that thinks critically, biased sources on the other hand will only get you people that agree with your biased opinion. which is it you're doing? not posting facts, or posting politically charged 'scientific sources'
>Says the /pol/faggot that probably holds up racial theory.
making a lot of assumptions there aren't you?
>Yeah, right, why literally every climate change thread on /pol/ is just denialism and NWO shitposting.
because everything on /pol/ turns into NWO shitposting? the tinfoilers are very vocal over there, learn to ignore them or bow down to your newfound loominati overlords and get good at making paper cranes.
>Funny, when us lefties are discussing things ourselves, who comes marching into our threads with low tier bait like "COMMUNISM HAS NEVER BEEN TRIED", "MUH HUMAN NATURE", "POINT OUT COMMUNISM THAT HAS WORKED" and then we get Bolsheviks are wall street jew image dumps until we have to leave because it's impossible to continue discussing things in the thread.
so, you're afraid of having your ideas challenged by things you consider 'low tier bait'? if the bait is so low tier why not refute the central point and tell them to fuck off?
>The idea that /pol/ has rational and reasoned discussion is absurd.\
truly coming full circle now, see>>454617
>>454743
Not the guy you're replying to, but I feel compelled to point out that the 'tinfoilers' are off topic on /pol/ and should be sent to >>>/x/. It's like you're stereotyping all of /pol/ by misrepresenting the worst crossposters from other sites and other 4chan boards as the normal way of things.
>>454746
I'm a lot more /x/ than /pol/ and more left leaning than most of /pol/
/x/ doesn't like dealing with /pol/ either, stuff like climate change and "banks/jews/globalists/sekrit club of the week are secretly pulling the strings" are 100% /pol/ material.
/x/ remains for paranormal and truly out there conspiracy theories that involve the paranormal(flatpill, nephilim shit, etc), but mainly for the spooks.
>>454743
>pseudoscience is going to get laughed at by anyone that thinks critically, biased sources on the other hand will only get you people that agree with your biased opinion. which is it you're doing? not posting facts, or posting politically charged 'scientific sources'
Again,
>Peer reviewed Scientific journals are bias because they disagree with my preheld reactionary beliefs.
Why should I trust /pol/faggots who still hold up 19th century racial theory over thousands of PhD holding scientists?
>making a lot of assumptions there aren't you?
Yeah, because you /pol/fags spread your shitty racial theory bullshit everywhere and the vast majority of threads on /pol/ are related too it in one way or another.
>because everything on /pol/ turns into NWO shitposting?
Yes. NWO, Jews, "SJWs". All terms for the same shit.
>so, you're afraid of having your ideas challenged by things you consider 'low tier bait'? if the bait is so low tier why not refute the central point and tell them to fuck off?
Or how about we've already answered this a trillion times before and you faggots just ignore us and march in with the exact same fucking low-tier bait over and over and over and over again because you just want to derail conversations.
Wow "Communism doesn't work because of human nature" Haven't heard that before, that is a totally fucking unique concept.
>truly coming full circle now
Yeah, I'm going to believe a /pol/faggot pretending that /pol/ actually has reasonable discussion over the hundreds of experiences I've had and pretty much every other left wing person on 4chan and 8ch /leftypol/ has had.
>>454754
>Why should I trust /pol/faggots who still hold up 19th century racial theory over thousands of PhD holding scientists?
I'm saying you shouldn't trust any source with any bias, and if you're posting biased sources prepare to get blown the fuck out.
>Yeah, because you /pol/fags spread your shitty racial theory bullshit everywhere and the vast majority of threads on /pol/ are related too it in one way or another.
>more assumptions about my personal beliefs
>Yes. NWO, Jews, "SJWs". All terms for the same shit.
SJW refers to something very specific, but it does play into that and for the most part I agree.
>Or how about we've already answered this a trillion times before and you faggots just ignore us and march in with the exact same fucking low-tier bait over and over and over and over again because you just want to derail conversations.
then ignore what you consider bait, seems to work for the rest of the webiste.
>Wow "Communism doesn't work because of human nature" Haven't heard that before, that is a totally fucking unique concept.
I've genuinely never heard that, but probably because I don't talk about communism much.
>Yeah, I'm going to believe a /pol/faggot pretending that /pol/ actually has reasonable discussion over the hundreds of experiences I've had and pretty much every other left wing person on 4chan and 8ch /leftypol/ has had.
>outright admitting you're 8gagger trying to expand your hugbox
I'm now done arguing with you, take this as a win or a loss I don't care, get fucked. 8ch is just as bad as leddit and you people should not be given an inch, 4chan will never be your hugbox you communist faggot.

>>454746
If it's political, it's /pol/-related, even if its a conspiracy theory, the alternative is having some guy choosing which beliefs are acceptable and which are not on the POLITICALLY INCORRECT board.
>>454774
Yes, the us leftists are totally shaking in our boots over "Isn't human nature" or "lol u just say communism has never been tried" strawmen.
Oh my god, how have we ever thought of those before. 200 years of philosophical thought, political science and sociology down the drain, /pol/fags have completely debunked one of the single most influential social movements in human history with their totally original ironclad statements. How could us Socialists be so wrong? Praise the free market and 19th century racial theory is absolute fact, I've seen the light, Socialist never thought of human nature, despite the founding fathers of Sociology were Socialists. Fuck me, How could we never have thought of human nature, that Capitalism a system 250 years old is the obvious status-quo for human history that has stretched 40,000 years.
>>452833

You do realize this is as nonsensical as claiming the failure of the Third Reich as proof that we should never elect right-wing candidates? Oh wait, of course you don't, because that would require you to have the slightest bit of self-awareness.
>>454767
>I'm saying you shouldn't trust any source with any bias, and if you're posting biased sources prepare to get blown the fuck out.
By /pol/ logic, even objective scientific research is biased (against the outdated pseudo-scientific stuff they believe in) and therefore should be discounted. To them, disagreement is a form of bias.
I think we all know the way to fix /pol/ would be a minimum character count to bump a thread.

3 times I have tried to engage debate, 3 times I've been told that I'm a stupid millennial, a Jew, a communist without addressing my points which were that:
1) races are equal
2) nationalism can bring us dangerously close to WW3
3) America is becoming a third-world country by any relevant statistics
4) Europe is not being invaded, all experts and all stats are confirming this.
5) 90% of their news articles come from right-wing version of the Gawker Network.
Your entire ideology is based on the lie that races are not equal. Plus, as a faggot myself, I am NOT inclined to engage with people who think I should be (I quote) "fed to wild animals".

Could my problem be that you /pol/fags shitpost over every single fucking board on this website, derailing literally every topic you faggots post in, that your anti-intellectual dumbshit and pathetic thinly veiled superiority complexs have become the norm for discussion on 4chan, so now you can't even fucking discuss history or philosophy or media or science without it devolving into aggressive try-hard edgy right wing edgelord shit?
Could it be that you /pol/faggots are constant pathological liars and will pretend your innocent little angels in the same fucking thread you faggots are literally shitposting /pol/shit in?
That you're a bunch of hypocritical children, who claim you care about free speech, but then try to shut down anybody that opposes you through your boards users fucking actions? That you constantly spread dox raid shit on /v/ against fucking women because "Waaah they criticized vidya games" that you fuckheads attack even youtube channels that disagree with your fucking pathetic bullshit narrative and try drive the users off the internet?
You /pol/faggots are the most deluded, hypocritical, bullshit fucks on the internet. My god learn some fucking self-awareness.

>>455136
Yes, I am frustrated when people insist that any scientific research that they disagree with is some kind of SJW conspiracy.
>>455195
Nationalism is typically a right-wing concept, and the "socialism" that they engaged in was largely aimed at reducing the rights of workers and destruction of unions. Not to mention that actual leftist socialists were one of the main groups sent to concentration camps.
>>455573
No, the rule would be "no /pol/ tier shitposting", not "no contrary views".
>>455636
The "stormfag boogeyman" was literally made up by /pol/ themselves as a scapegoat to blame whenever /pol/ memes get spammed on other boards.
Why I don't want to post on 8gag.
It's a site run by actual pedos.
It's got an actual pedo board.
The majority of the site is Dark Enlightenment shit.
Majority of the userbase are fucking outright violent sociopaths.
It's servers are unstable as fuck.
8gag's leftypol is socially right wing and reactionary as fuck.
leftypol's mods are a bunch of reactionary cunts who will ban you for
- Espousing any form of Feminist theory
- Accepting Racism is a real issue in society
- Being pro-any level of gun reform
- Criticizing Gamergate on any level
- Disagreeing with any part of the MRA/AvfM narrative
- Accepting Social theory has moved on at all since 1883.
Why the fuck would anyone want to post on 8gag at all is beyond me.

Oh please, we've debated you morons a trillion times and we always just get bullshit anti-intellectual crap in response.
I mean, my god, people in this very thread alone think Nazi germany was left wing.
Fucking kek.

/pol/ is full of reactionary cunts who won't allow any opposition to their moronic politics.
Give us a place to discuss leftism (not liberalism) without idpol (muh white race, muh mens rights).
It would be a huge positive to the site.
>>455744
>give us lefties a hugbox instead of fixing /pol/
It would be cool if we had /right/ and /left/ and /pol/ was refounded as a place free of circlejerking.
But /leftypol/ would be just a containment board, and I fucking hate 8gag's /leftypol/ even though I'm ML, so I don't agree with this idea at all.
>>452833
No. I used the cripple chan /leftypol/ for about a month and it was shit. It would be a useless board woth no traffic anyway, if you want to be a commie, just got to /pol/
>>455696
>if I repeat it enough times, that makes it true!
>>455701
No, /pol/-tier shitposting should be banned on ALL boards except /pol/. That's the only way for /pol/ to function as a containment board. As part of the agreeement, /leftypol/ won't be allowed to shitpost their memes in other boards, either.
>>455752
How do you propose we fix /pol/?
>>455837
you are the only shitposter here
Why do leftyfags shitpost like crazy and proceed to pull the victim card?
>>455848
I'm not the one that goes into other boards spamming "anti-racist is a code word for anti-white" and telling degenerates to kill themselves.
>>452981
It's strange that you would state this, because /sci/ disregards any studies that contradict its baseline views. For example, the multitude of peer reviewed studies done in China and around the world regarding the toxicity of fluoride even in the small amounts present in artificially fluoridated water (as well as water sources with a high fluoride content).
The reality is that both sides of the spectrum are illogical and suffer from confirmation bias regardless of the veracity of the arguments put in place to counter their views.
>>455976
At least we take responsibility for our shitposting and don't blame it all on the stormfront boogeyman.
>>456264
You dont blame it on stormfront for the same reason Obama doesnt blame leftists

>>455667
4chan /leftypol/ will probably be the same thing. Just accept that you're not wanted here, on any imageboard, on any board whatsoever.
/leftypol/ would need a lot of moderation to prevent trolling, so why not start moderating the already existing board /pol/ instead?

Nazi germany was left wing
What form of leftism would be enforced on /leftypol/?
Who would determine which opinions are "left-wing"?
>>453319
What defines a "/pol/-tier" post? Please be specific.
>>454174
>/pol/ is mostly libertarians and neocons
Maybe a few libertarians lurking around, but very few neocons. /pol/ is packed with the full gamut of alt-right ideologies - libertarians, nationalists, reactionaries, racial preservationists, Christian traditionalists, and other such types. You'd be hard pressed to find mainstream conservatives, and neocons don't even have a presence.
>>454066
what piss next to him looks old af
>>457151
/pol/
I am all for the idea, not only because I vote left and like communism myself, but mainly because it would strip /pol/ of their unique role in being the only POLITICS board, which pisses the nazis off, which again in turn is pleasing.
Also there would be a space for good discussion as it is the case in /his/. Remember that the advocates for the white supremacy from pol flooded the discussion whether to create /his/ and said it would not be possible or beneficial. They lost there. They just want to push their nazi-glorifying agenda and shut other arguments down.
I only posted an english translation from a german left-wing-artist and the mods deleted it within one minute. They also not interested in any discussion which confronts them with other ways of thinking.
>>452833
/pol/ isn't the right-wing board, it's the politics board. It just so happens that the majority of the users are right-wing.
What, would conservatives be banned?
Shit idea.
>>452838
>we can't outsmart on arguments the opposition
Because obviously the way ideas win on /pol/ is on their merit and logic.
>>452833
Have you tried /reddit/ ? I heard that it's pretty lefty and you don't get flamed for posting your shit there ;)

>>457775
/pol/ is always correct
>>455149
>1) races are equal
In what regard? In terms of rights to be given? Physiologically? Mentally?
>2) nationalism can bring us dangerously close to WW3
As can socialism, or democracy or anything that falls within the realm of mankind's ability to not be perfect and there being more than 1 nation on earth.
>3) America is becoming a third-world country by any relevant statistics
The poor are literally better off than any point in history in this country according to every single statistic and barometer. This is the greatest time to be alive when weighed against the entirety of human history bar none. Have fun with your isolated cases like NHS cases gone wrong in the UK or people dying in waiting rooms though, just keep their occurrence rates in perspective.
>4) Europe is not being invaded, all experts and all stats are confirming this.
Clarify your use of the word invaded. I daresay it has been used as a lazy mans memeword for "demographic shift" is occurring at "exorbitant rates" which will lead to conflict.
>5) 90% of their news articles come from right-wing version of the Gawker Network.
Any thread i've ever seen citing shit like infowars etc is almost always asked for a "real site" and they are usually followed up by huffpo/nypost and in the case of foreign links they are generally mainstream news sources.(This of course excludes the breitbart spam that has been going on for what 5+ months now)
You should be fed to wild animals because you are too lazy to sufficiently back your convictions and beliefs and instead roll over and complain to whatever ear will hear you.
>>452833
/pol/ was originally meant for political discussions of all types. It just so happens that there aren't nearly as many hubs of far-right discussion online as there are hubs of far-left discussion; this is because it tends to be more socially acceptable to be a far-left extremist than a far-right extremist.
4chan offers people with extreme far-right views a place to express them anonymously, without all the risks involved with attaching a name to these opinions, especially since some countries (read: Canada and most of Europe) have laws against "hate speech", which is really just another way of saying that they support the suppression of free speech.
People with far-left views typically don't have this problem, because their views are seen as being more socially acceptable, and well, legal. There are some oddball cases like Russia where you can get in trouble for supporting gay rights, but for the most part, you can safely attach a screen name to your far-left views without any negotiable consequences.
Me, well, I don't really fit anywhere on the political spectrum. I'm a believer in free speech and individualism, but I don't blindly follow the dogma of either side. I do lean to the left in some ways, but not in all.
What's my point exactly? We don't need /leftypol/, because /pol/ isn't intrinsically a right wing board. It just so happens to have a very far-right userbase. If you want to discuss stuff with other lefties, I dunno, try Tumblr or Reddit.
>>455149
/pol/ consists of retarded mouthbreathers but not because of the reasons you posted
>>457789
>laws against "hate speech", which is really just another way of saying that they support the suppression of free speech.
clueless amerilard
>far-left views typically don't have this problem
far left ideas are even less socially acceptable.
youre probably confusing them with liberal democrats.
>Me, well, I don't really fit anywhere on the political spectrum. I'm a believer in free speech and individualism
enlightened special snowflake, M'sir i tip my headwear to you
>It just so happens to have a very far-right userbase.
it just has an army of unironic shills.
its not about opinions, its about an agenda being forced, thats why oldfag /pol/tards left the board several years ago.
>>452833
No.
And I say this as a strongly left-wing social democrat. The nature of /pol/ isn't fitting for completely serious political discussion and the nature of 4chan means it will always be centred on US politics (do you want your right wing red or blue?)
Besides, the left wing isn't quite as exploitable for humor, especially not politically incorrect humour.
>>452838
You'll just be shitposted into oblivion, this isn't really a valid explanation for why /pol/ is so right wing. That can be explained by a variety of other factors, but the lack of competent left-wing arguments is way down there on the list.
I do argue with /pol/ though, it's a good way to play with ideas and develop counterarguments even if you'll never get someone to concede defeat.
>>455149
>1) races are equal
Trying to argue this on /pol/ is just silly, if the serious racists don't get you the meme-team will.
>2) nationalism can bring us dangerously close to WW3
There are so many things wrong with this I don't even know where to start. (WW3 isn't particularly likely anyway, nationalism isn't a monolithic entity and some types - Scottish and Catalan - if anything serve to reduce the risk of war.)
>3) America is becoming a third-world country by any relevant statistics
'Becoming'
There's the pedantic case that America as is too powerful to be 'third world' (It's the sole real superpower), but in terms of treatment of citizens I'd grant that as mild hyperbole.
>4) Europe is not being invaded, all experts and all stats are confirming this.
See reply to (1)
>5) 90% of their news articles come from right-wing version of the Gawker Network.
Very valid point, although most people get their news from shitty sources. (Myself, I barely care about the news and get most of it, amusingly, from /pol/, then untangle the spin to find something close to fact.)
>I am NOT inclined to engage with people who think I should be (I quote) "fed to wild animals".
Learn to handle the banter or I'll eat you myself..
>>452833
What the hell would be the point of /pol/ 1 and /pol/ 2? Just post on /pol/ if you want to talk about politics. This is like claiming you need a MOBA board because they are treated too harshly on /v/, or asking for a closed-source software board because /g/ won't stop "shitposting" at you.
>>453382
You mean it's impossible (read: difficult) to post lies on /pol/. Unless you back up your argument in some way people will criticize it. Stormfags have almost entirely left /pol/ for 8ch, you can tell because they take themselves extremely seriously. People disagreeing with you does not automatically make them Stormfront users.
It sounds like the "shitposts" and "shilling" you're describing are actually friendly people joking around with you and other viewpoints challenging your own. Your only complaint thus far has been "they disagree with me, I need my own board."
>>453906

By dismissing it as jealousy, you're just showing your opinion that those who do have less deserve to have less. Not everyone agrees with that, especially when that inequality is due to unfair circumstances.

Oh, I'm sorry. Was it not """"""true communism"""""?
Was it one of the many different slightly altered brands of communism?
>>459026
The story goes that leninists believed a stage of state-capitalism is neccessary in order to transition to socialism. Stalin, having no interest at all in communism, took advantage of the state-capitalist mode the ussr was in and used that to be a totalitarian dickhead. This trend is repeated all over the world. The moral of the story: don't trust authoritarians.
>>459029
or more shows that /pol/fags have literally no fucking clue about History.
Stalinism was EXPORTED, any country with a Socialist movement was quickly hijacked by Stalinists with the full backing of the Stalinist Comintern who supplied them aid, KGB assistance and material goods.
There was only one model of "Socialism" even tried really on a large scale in history and that was Stalinism, everyone else that tried to do something different got buttfucked by right wingers or Stalinists.
Saying all Socialism fails because of ONE MODEL of Socialism is retarded, it's basically like saying that all of Capitalism will fail because 19th century protectionism fell too Globalization and countries that try to be protectionist in the 21st century (Venezuela and other developing nations) get buttfucked by global market forces.
I literally don't get why right wing morons can't fucking pick up a history book. Yes, a bunch of countries with the same system failed, but what the fuck does that have to do with all of Socialism especially when Stalinism was a fringe ideology even within Socialism outside of the USSR and Asia?
>>459105
purge yourself, trotskyist scum
>>459105
One of the best examples of protectionism has to be the marshall plan. A way to cuck other countries who owned debt from european countries after the war.
I won't enter details but that turn upside down the modern world for some south american countries who got dictators in power who were allied to Kissinger and now have debt themselves.

ok, so how the fuck would 4chan's be any different? being socially left wing will never be popular on 4chan, and you don't need a new board to prove that. just use a different website, it's not like the internet is short on liberal hugboxes or anything.
I literally haven't used 4chins in 6 years.
