An example of Trump defrauding average folks, people spending their life savings, maxing out their credit cards:


Stephen Gilpin, former Trump University professor and author of "Trump U: The Inside Story of Trump University," explains what it was like to work at the for-profit real estate training program before it went defunct amidst class action lawsuits and allegations of fraud.

I've said earlier that Trump is seen by his followers as a sort of "bandit king" who is sticking it to the man, to the libs, to the banks. But here he's only taking money from ordinary people, those just trying to better themselves. Destroy the illusion that he is for the average working Joe, and his support outside of his core base will cave.

well i can make a prediction for the future : sure traffic on this forum will peak til end 2024, but then 2025 you will all be surprised that it's TOTALLY QUIET on this forum, because elections will be over, but interesting people chatting about 3D worlds will have left. That's how you kill a forum.

As long as you are here for us to play with and toy with, the forum will thrive. We have been doing this since 2007, so I'm pretty sure we are doing something right, or at least having great fun!

Trump is trying to attack the records of Harris and "Newscome", which shows he has a problem with time, too.

I hope that thumbs-down was for the content of the videos, Cindy.

I haven't found a reaction video yet.

I also think that Trump is racist as well as disrespectful and dismissal of women to such an extent that he just can't wrap his brain around having to campaign against Kamala so he keeps trying to run against Biden instead. To Trump, having to run against a black woman is an insult. Which also tells me that he will never accept America voting for Kamala as president and if she wins (which I think she will), definitely will pull another stunt like the one on January 6th only the next stunt will be better planned and more deadly.

That will surely help him.

As a Democrat, I don't expect my candidates to be perfect. I'm sure they've all made mistakes -- both personal and political -- and blunders, and they've taken some stances I don't agree with or abandoned some stances (no-fracking, I'm looking at you) that I did agree with. What I'm looking for is a good faith effort to acknowledge problems, the confidence and competence to propose solutions, and a reasonable amount of personal integrity.

I find it amusing when Trump supporters pull out some tepidly unsavory detail for either Harris or Walz and scream "GOTCHA!!!" as if -- even assuming their allegation is true -- this sudden revelation would be deal-breaker for me as a voter. I mean, it certainly wasn't an issue for them with Trump, who can outcompete just about any other living politician for the most egregiously incompetent and corrupt behavior under the sun. If they can discount rape, Russian collusion, tax evasion, racism, misogyny, greed, stupidity, ignorance, meanness, and toxic narcissism, why would they think I'd clutch my pearls over anything they say about Walz or Harris?

One can only hope!

i just noticed something interesting on this forum. There are 240,960 messages in total, and 115,000 of them are in the topic "Politics, Religion and Society", almost half.

So what does this mean ? Sure we're in an election year again, but still, this trend is since 2022.

Clearly intelligent topics about SL or other 3d worlds are dead here. Make it simple and just rebrand the whole forum : "Political War" or something like that.

I bet many people already left this forum because they're tired of reading this. I'm surprised the forum owners let this go on.

You know SL had the same problem in 2020, and they BANNED all political activism then, because they understood it's bad for business : political opinions always make 50% of people angry who then don't bother to respond and just leave.

Second Life bans all in-game advertisements that are ‘political in nature’ | Massively Overpowered

By the way not only SL banns political themes, all multiplayer games do that.

What the fuck are you rambling about?
And bans does not have two n's you fucking weirdo.

 

[Lexxi]

i can only guess, but since almost ALL opinions expressed here are from the left, this probably means that all people from the right (so 50% of the population) either doesn't respond here or has left, and they won't come back.

And?

 

[Lexxi]

so lucky you don't sell anything, you would have lost 50% of your customers ..
And lucky this forum doesn't sell ads, because no one would like to place them here anymore.

Dude, you are so fucking dumb.

Dude, seriously, how are you so dumb? Elections? Who needs fucking elections to talk about politics?

Mark it down: August 2024, when white guy tacos destroyed the Republican party.

I agree, if people from the right were in majority here, the people from the left would have left the forum. Anyway that means 50% of the people left here.

I know political forums on discord, they LOVE to argue and fight too, but there it's 50-50%, otherwise it's not funny if no one from the other side responds.

There's, like, a lot of humor threads on here. Under your logic, there should be zero. Because "it's not funny".

Wow, Lexxi has been triggered.

 

[Lexxi]

thanks but i'll pass. i'll let the US people dig their own grave, who they elect is their problem, i'm from Europe.

Dude, did you even look around this place at all? Just sticking with the theme of Politics,

you forgot the beginning of my first post :

"i just noticed something interesting on this forum. There are 240,960 messages in total, and 115,000 of them are in the topic "Politics, Religion and Society", almost half. "

So is this still a forum about 3D worlds ? i'm not so sure. Maybe time to rebrand it.

Dude, the place is called "Virtual Verse". You are talking online right now. Not in person. For fuck sake.

Lexxi - Deep breaths, breathe, breathe. He's GONE. You can let it go now!

I wanted to kick them some more.

You call that a kick? 'Tis merely a flesh wound.

Misspelling Lexxi is definitely a good reason for a kicking.
