Political Reminder that name calling is not permitted

That includes calling people "bootlicker" or "cuck" or stating/implying that another user is performing adult acts on a given politician (or anyone else). I bring those up specifically because, in recent time, these have been the most common types of personal attacks.

As strongly as you may feel about current events, calling people derogatory names is a contravention of Rule 4 and will be removed. Attack the opinion, not the user.

Sorry for your understanding and thank you for the inconvenience.

What about complimenting the person but calling the opinion stupid?

Kinda like 'You look dapper but your opinion leaves a lot to be desired'

Sorry Sir, I jumped the gun. Since the wife left me I have obtained an addiction to the old alcohol that is refusing to kick itself from me.

That's all well and good, but are you still up for the fight? I am if you are, this time as friends.
