....with the political shitposts....

I come here for car stuff. Or at least tone it down some. I’ve noticed an uptick lately.

Cars.

Oppo is an off-topic forum, so sometimes politics shows up. I hear you man, I’m not American, so dealing with two years of political pieces is annoying, but that’s how it goes. To keep it on topic, 2008 Bullitt Mustang.

Not that I’m defending them but this is an off-topic forum. Nowhere in the handbook does it say posts have to be about cars.

To be fair, our election is a huge shitshow right now.

True, but we’re starting to see political nonsense on the front page as well; not in the comments, but the main articles themselves. This place was an escape...

To be fair, why the hell is your election process two years long? You know how long our longest was? 78 days! Hurry it up already, the rest of the world is tired.

I think the OP is suggesting we build a wall around Oppo, and make the political shitposters pay for it?

(I keed, I keed, but unfortunately, a shitshow will beget shitposts.)

And I’m sick of hearing about it. My viewpoint being yelled across mountain tops PROBABLY isn’t going to change someone’s that is in opposition. I’ll make a decision based on the actions and platforms of the candidates. Research the best you can. Try to be impartial. That last part is what’s being ignored most by people on BOTH sides....

Sorry mate. But this IS an off-topic forum. A place to talk shit about your mum and her dress. As well as a place to wonder about how the fuck Trump could get a single vote or what’s the best industrial-album of the past ten years.

I know most americans probably give fuck all if they end up with Trump or Cinton as the next president, but for some of us blokes it’s quite important... Trump would mean we would have to watch our backs to see what Putin would do next.

Really sorry if it bothers you mate, but your election affects a few of us in a huge way.

The stuff showing up on Jalopnik is cross posts from other Gawker Univision sites. You should see Deadspin. Between the sponsored content and the Concourse cross posts, it’s hard to find anything about sports. As for the political stuff, it will come and go. Oppo is very much an off topic thing, and frankly, I’d rather see less about cars and more about the other things that interest people.

Meh, we’re fucked either way...
