I was here when ats response time was 1 second to a minute,25 hours a day, 8 days a week, on every topic and that's no lie.

Ok, so I very rarely reply on posts, I just like to read and learn both sides of an issue, and make my own opinions.
However, I am noticing a disturbing trend......
I can log in to ATS, and go to the new tab, and guess what...from reading the titles, I can tell you what the headlines are on Drudge, Info Wars, Huff Post, etc.!
I guess I don't get it, nobody is doing research or digging, just parroting what their favorite ideological soapbox site says.
Really, I miss the deep, well researched, news and posts that you can't find anywhere else.
Please, do some research into a topic you enjoy, put a thread together, and make this site what you want it to be.
Since it's entirely user generated content, if you don't like it, change it. YOU HAVE THE POWER.
It's a waste of time nowadays.. unless it contains the word trump or Clinton. .

Yea the the white supremacist push back to obama was immediate and massive..
Maybe the country wasn't really ready for a black president.
Wtf has that got to do with this thread?
Always turns to American politics no matter what the subject..
Good writing for what, it won't get any attention, it would be a waste of time, those days are gone.

I made quite a few myself that reached over 100 flags.. i wouldn't waste my time nowadays..
Imo ats had become tabloid bottom of the barrel rubbish for some time.
I feel this is the reason why we don't see any good writing today.
No one wants to research and construct a intricate thread because they all know it would be a waste of time because it would drown in the tabloid esque posting that now dominates this site.
Many good writers have stopped posting because they saw where ATS was going.
Thats a valid point and that's what they don't understand this site caters to the wrong side too much.

None of it matters in the end.

Catering to either side would be the wrong side.
