Yes, because the internet does not exist in the real world! Why should we care what's happening around us? Eyes back to your monitors!

Every site has a focus.

I'm not suggesting we become the politics subreddit. Just saying that it's important to know what's going on IRL too. :)

You can visit other sites you know. I'm pretty sure Paul won't mind. :-)

I don't agree with nkohari, but he shouldn't be voted down this much. A 0 or a -1 is enough to say "no, we don't agree". It's not as if he said something horribly offensive.

Thanks for the support. I guess I didn't realize that this was an opinion-free zone. Honestly I think it's ridiculous that I would get down-voted for supporting an article that's now at number one. Clearly people care about the topic, and it's not like I contributed "less" to the discussion than the original comment I replied to, which was up-voted like wildfire. It's not like I'm on here spouting support for Ron Paul or linking to leftist blogs.

How did this get negative points? I can only upvote!

I too disagreed with you, but voted you up (from -8 to -7) because I think it's ridiculous that you can bury someone that much.

If you think about it, the only people that deserve to be buried are true trolls posting viagra ads and those terrible scat porn stories on slashdot... and those people don't care about their karma anyway, so you might as well just delete their accounts.

Why don't we just have some kind of floor on comments. Really -1 is enough to say "this comment is crap" without resulting in a situation where someone is dogpiled.

You need a certain level of karma to downvote.

I agree with davidw, but he shouldn't be voted up this much. A 3 or a 4 is enough to say "we agree". It's not as if he said something horribly insightful.

See how short the path is from politics to meta-meta discussions? A slippery slope indeed;-)

I wouldn't vote me up that much either, but there is a difference between voting up and voting someone way down.
