What do you think a thread filled with random thoughts will lead to?

I for one believe it will lead to the same irony this thread faced. Starting from personal insults ---> anger ---> rage ---> nothing useful produced through the discussion.

I don't see how a thread themed to solicit these reactions would be in any way like a thread of random thoughts.

Or was this just a chance to plug the "dissenters are bad guys" line?

(Sure reminds of of the line(s) my government feeds me. Keep pounding it in, eventually someone has to believe it.)

Random thoughts would be a step up from this thread, which was designed for hate. I am gathering more evidence, ATS does not like hoaxers. Creating a thread to trick dissenters to respond, so you can lable them "trolls" and "non constructive" is hoaxing with a vengenace.

(Don't forget the whole irony too, I mean someone who breaks every rule he lists as "constructive" should not really be telling others how to behave. Again, like the US Government, do as I say, not as I do.)

Closed for staff review.
