DebatePolitics A Decade of Debate: My Review of the Debate Politics Community

I've been a part of the Debate Politics community for nearly a decade now, giving my two cents on over 10,000 posts! As someone who is very vocal about their disapproval of Donald Trump, I've surprisingly had no issues with the moderators or engaging in debates with those who disagree with me. In all my time here, I've never received an infraction point (a rarity, I'm sure!), although I have been politely warned a few times when I deserved it.

I haven't explored many other debate forums, but I have to say that Debate Politics seems to be pretty good. I've found other users here who are great at articulating their arguments, although I have noticed a shift in tone since Trump's election. Some former conservative posters have become never-Trumpers, while some of the more loyal Trump supporters can be a bit fanatical, not always interested in intellectual discourse. It can be tough to have genuine, honest conversations with them. Before Trump, the conversations seemed to be much richer and more substantive.

Overall, I think the site is very well-managed. Anyone who has been banned from the site clearly deserved it; in fact, there are probably only two or three people here who should be removed, but I'm sure there will be three more who will take their place soon enough. That's just how internet debates typically play out!

The Basement is always a bit of a subculture and a little on the clicky side, but if you come to this website with your best debating skills, a good understanding of the issues, and a willingness to agree to disagree amicably, then you'll definitely find yourself welcomed into the community.

DebatePolitics DebatePolitics Review: A Platform with Diverse Views but Watch Out for Personal Attacks

DebatePolitics is a site where you can find lots of different political opinions. If you're like me, and are fed up with the current direction of the democratic party, you might feel attacked by some of the members who don't share your views. There are some members who just like to troll for fun, and it can be frustrating when you're trying to have a real discussion.

One thing that I've noticed is that if you're a Trump supporter, you might receive some decent support, but you're likely to be attacked more than anti-Trump members. The anti-Trump members are more numerous, and sometimes their attacks can go too far. The site admins sometimes step in with warnings or even bans, but it doesn't always happen.

There are some moderators who are aware of the issues on the site, like RedAkston and Serenity, but they might direct you to a section of the site that's meant for insulting people who have legitimate issues with how it's being run.

Overall, the site is decent if you're looking for a conversation about politics. Just be careful not to post in controversial threads where you could be attacked by posters with the admins' blessing. It's not a perfect site, but if you know what to avoid, you could find some interesting discussions. And don't forget to brace yourself for the occasional spelling or grammar error - it just shows that the community is made up of everyday people with diverse backgrounds and perspectives.

DebatePolitics Unfair Warnings and Lack of Data: My Review of Debatepolitics.com

I joined Debatepolitics.com 4 weeks ago and I've been right active on the site, starting about 24 threads and giving around 680 points in that time. However, I got warned 3 times, and they gave me 6 infraction points, which in my opinion weren't fair. The last warning was a real bummer, if you ask me. They said I was being rude by calling someone a "true Trumpian". What? When I said that, I didn't mean to hate on him or anything, I just meant it like when some people say "said like a true Democrat / said like a true Republican”. But the mods didn't see it that way, and they gave me an infraction point.

So, what did I do? I tried to appeal it. But the mods didn't even listen to me! My contact person was clearly a big fan of Donald Trump - he's a tea party member! How can he be impartial? I don't think that's fair at all.

To be honest, I haven't found the site very helpful for me since I'm interested in debating about Trump and what he's done. But people who support Trump, well, they don't usually use facts or figures in their arguments. They just state their opinions, which isn't helpful at all. It really feels like I'm wasting my time when I debate them.

So far, the site is getting a "D" from me. But, to be fair, those who are against Trump are usually pretty informative and well-researched. Still, even they mostly just give their opinions in their arguments and don't give much data to back it up.

Overall, I'm a bit disappointed with Debatepolitics. I hope they start giving more fair warnings and infractions, and I hope we can have a more accurate and fact-based debate on Trump and his policies.

DebatePolitics Debate Politics: A Haven for Right-Wing Extremism and Toxic Behavior

debatepolitics.com is a website that truly has me worried about the state of our society. Brace yourself if you decide to go there, because their member base is mostly made up of right-wing extremists, though they may call themselves "Libertarian", "Independent" or "Conservative." As someone who knows many Conservatives, I can safely say that none of them would ever resort to the levels of indecency and vitriol that I witness on debate politics.

These forum members are so quick to resort to name-calling, double-speak, and conveniently forgetting facts when it suits them. If you push back against them, they'll gang up on you like Maynard, Zed, and the Gimp from Pulp Fiction - which is truly disturbing. This community is as creepy and disgusting as they come.

Of course, those on the left have their share of trolls - but most of them are sincere and will try to prove their point with evidence, facts, and history. This is what I try to do, at least - but it seems like everything anyone says who doesn't identify as Republican or Conservative is labeled a "liar," a "Socialist," or some other derogatory term. Their favorite insult is calling people a "Lib$#*!," which is obviously incredibly immature.

I joined the forum back in 2005, but I quickly left and didn't return for almost 12 years. When I finally decided to check it out again, it had only gotten worse. If you consider yourself a reasonable person, steer clear of this site. If you're a right-wing extremist who wants to indulge in sadistic behavior instead of regular internet porn, then by all means, have at it.

DebatePolitics Debate Politics: A Forum Infested with Paid Shills, According to my Experience

I only gave DP 2 stars instead of 1 because sometimes you might get some good feedback on light topics. But when it comes to controversial issues, it's a whole different story. There are some unwritten rules for debates that are simply common sense. If you want to prove someone wrong, you should always try to include links to sources that support your claim. That way, the debate can go back and forth, and whoever can no longer refute using reputable sources loses. However, in my experience, you won't find anyone on DP who's willing to follow these rules or engage in a true debate.

It seems like 98% of the posters there are paid shills. A shill is someone who's employed by an organization like the NSA to deflect political issues or cover up conspiracies. When you try to debate them correctly, they won't provide any sources to back up their claims even if they're proven wrong. And even when they lose, they never admit defeat. That's how I knew they were shills.

You can usually tell how long someone's been on DP and how many posts they have. When you do the math, it's clear that they're posting 8 hours a day. That's their job! It's really sad, and DP is complicit in this whole thing. They should ban anyone who doesn't follow the rules or anyone who's there just to undermine the forum's purpose. But they don't, so you have to wonder what their affiliations are.

Overall, DP is just a waste of energy.

DebatePolitics Corruption and Unprofessionalism: A Review of Debate Politics Forum

Debate Politics Forum is a platform that seems to be going round in circles for a while now. It's been a topic of discussion how Red Akston, a Mod, was exposed by some former members of the platform, and now he has been replaced by DiAnna who isn't regarded any better than the former. It's crazy how there are always new and dishonest DP authorities making the rounds, taking turns to display their sleazy and despicable sides for the world to see.

The owner of DP, Schweddy, tried to make it seem like it was all gentle and soft when he announced the change of Mod but failed to do so adequately. Instead, he sounded like any other illiterate individual who struggles to string words together to form an acceptable sentence, with a comical "going forward" in his statement. It's disgraceful how an essential website like DP can have such an uneducated owner who isn't attentive to his work product.

Red Akston's case is a perfect example of how corrupt DP is. He banned a member, who happened to be a regular of DP for over seven years, under false and dishonest reasons. This member was a significant contributor to the website, sharing vital information on military expertise, which gained a lot of attention from DP readers. It's clear to see that Red Akston was trying to flex his power and get rid of individuals who didn't align with his interests. When he failed to get rid of this member, he resorted to technical sabotage in a bid to shut down the Military Cadet thread.

The new Mod, DiAnna, isn't any better than Red Akston if anything, arguably worse. She doesn't hide her dislike for some members of DP, making it clear that she hates their posts and doesn't enjoy reading them. In a bid to fit into the political agenda of DP, DiAnna aligns herself with a right-wing poster who has been stalking one of the members for years, with the sole purpose of driving the member away from DP. The fact that someone with such a harmful political agenda and stalking behavior is allowed to thrive on DP speaks volumes about the ethics of the platform.

Despite the changes in Mod, the DP Forum remains a dangerous and creepy space where Trump supporters spew lies and hate consistently without consequences. It's unfortunate that DP is heading towards a dark path and doing nothing constructive to improve the situation. It makes one wonder what the future holds for the platform and its members.

DebatePolitics Debate Politics: A Warning to Potential Members - Abusive Administration, Unjust Actions, and Discrimination

Today is a sad day for me as I have been banned from Debatepolitics, a website that I have been a member of for several years now. It all happened because I stood up for myself when the moderator team turned against me, and it's clear to me now that the rumors I heard about them were mostly true. I wanted to believe that they were untrue because I was desperate for a place to discuss politics freely.

From my experience, the administration team is split into two groups. While one group does their job fairly, the other group abuses their power, changing the rules to suit their opinions at the moment and breaking them freely. They even stoop so low as to make personal and racial attacks on anyone who disagrees with them. It's painfully obvious that if you don't share their political opinion, you won't be treated fairly. They allow other posters they favor to break the rules while punishing others, like me, just because they deemed me to have crossed the line.

One warning sign that I noticed is the administrator RedAkston. He started as my friend, but as soon as I questioned the moderator's actions, he showed his true colors. He derided and punished me without giving me a chance to prove that the moderators were wrong. He even threatened me to prevent me from speaking up. He uplifts those who break the rules to the position of moderator and eliminates those who fall out of favor. In my opinion, his actions have led to the site's fall in popularity.

It's both sad and happy for me to say goodbye to this site since I helped it grow for the last two years. I'm glad that I no longer have to deal with a group of racist bigots who belittle others around them for their selfish reasons. It's funny that practically none of them come from the right-wing. They are either self-proclaimed liberals or communists. This is something that other reviews had warned me about, too.

What's interesting is that the moderator who banned me, Jetboogieman, was RedAkston's protégé. He deliberately lied about my site rules violation, which I called him out on, and required moderation to have the penalty removed. I also pointed out how he directly lied in his ruling. Jetboogieman is one of the largest offenders who targeted posters based on race and broke site rules repeatedly, yet he was the one that the administration team chose to put into a position of power.

All I can say is that my experience just shows you the kind of people that RedAkston and his team allow to have power on their site.

DebatePolitics Toxic behavior and biased moderation: My experience with DebatePolitics

When I first stumbled upon DebatePolitics, it seemed like a friendly enough place. The majority of members were polite, and the discussions were undeniably intellectual and mature - a refreshing change from some other online forums I had visited. Nevertheless, after a while, I began to notice some troubling things about the site. Behind the veneer of niceness, there was a culture of toxic behavior, biased moderation, and an almost bizarre trolling obsession.

If you have ever worked in a truly poisonous environment, where management are constantly manipulating everyone around them for their own petty purposes, then you might recognize the atmosphere of DebatePolitics. The moderators are supposed to be impartial and fair, but in reality, they show clear favoritism towards some members and negative bias towards others. The rules seem to be applied selectively, depending on who is involved. Additionally, the moderators often use underhanded methods to remove members they dislike, bending or distorting the rules as necessary.

The site's "Basement" subforum is supposedly a place where members can let off steam and settle grudges without fear of moderation. However, it has become a den of caustic and cliqueish board veterans, bullying and trolling anyone unfortunate enough to cross their paths. New members are treated with a shocking level of hostility, and the culture of trolling has become so ingrained that some members - including a Senior Moderator - openly admit to manipulating others for their own amusement.

Despite numerous complaints from board members, no one in a position of power seems to care about these behaviors. In fact, many of the site's longtime members seem to have embraced this troll culture, believing that it is acceptable to be malicious and abusive towards others. They even count accusations of "trolling" as an infractable offense, regardless of context.

The toxicity of DebatePolitics is especially troubling, given that much of the site's membership is genuinely pleasant and engaged in good faith discussions. It's a shame that such a promising community has been tainted by the actions of a few bad actors. If you do decide to visit the site, it might be best to stick to the less corrosive subforums and avoid drawing the attention of the more malicious members.

DebatePolitics DebatePolitics.com: A White Supremacist Forum Disguised as Political Discourse

DebatePolitics.com is a forum where people can share and debate their thoughts about politics. However, I must warn you, this forum is not for everyone. If you belong to a different ethnic background and are really passionate about your culture and beliefs, then this might not be the right forum for you. The reason is that this forum is run by white extremists whose only purpose is to protect white American culture.

People of different races are being harassed and bullied by the staff who are white supremacists and white segregationists. It is a place where people of white cultural origins gather to discuss their beliefs. This forum is not open to other cultures, so if you belong to a different ethnic group and post anything other than white cultural values, be prepared to be stalked, harassed, and bullied, just as I was.

As the only person of color on the forum, I was harassed and bullied for daring to post about other cultural values. The forum staff and their trolls were always on the lookout for me, and I had to put up with so much hatred and negativity. They could even attack my children and family without any repercussions because they are mixed race and because I have LGBT family members.

The staff members, led by the forum owner, who goes by the ID of "Schweddy," and an ancient old racist white woman in California who uses the ID of "DiAnna," are among the worst offenders. They are pure racist, homophobic and xenophobic to their bones. When they discovered that I had a black wife, mixed race children, and LGBT family members, they went berserk, demanding that I divulge my private message to the full forum staff.

The forum owner and the moderators refused to allow people of different races to post on their forum, and they made no secret of it. This is why I was permanently banned from the forum because my marriage to a black woman, mixed race children, and LGBT family members were "extremely disturbing" and "just not right." The attacking white poster was given full immunity for violating all the rules and attacking me and my family.

This forum is nothing but white supremacist KKKish click bait. Even staff members have left the forum because of its extreme racism and bigotry. The staff leads trolls to stalk, ridicule, and endlessly attack anyone posting outside of a low-class version of American white cultural values. They then celebrate running off the next person of color or anyone of any different race, ethnicity, or sexual orientation in an area they call the "Basement."

To make "undesirable" posters (meaning not white and not of their white values and background) seem like liars and ridiculous, the staff will edit your messages if they don't like you - meaning not acting white enough - with no indication you didn't write the message. The forum rules are irrelevant to anything other than however any staff member wants to use or ignore or make up non-existent rules.

This forum is run by old white losers whose only claim to worth is their whiteness, which is then their superiority. They are people who get to be KKKers hiding behind IDs in a sense of finally having some power in their old age after a lifetime of failure. Failed relationships. Failed economically. Failed as parents.

If you are thinking of joining this forum, be VERY careful. This forum has come under the spotlight by numerous civil rights organizations and activists, and they have publicly exposed the real identity of members of white supremacist forums like this one in the past. You may not want a permanent heritage online as a white racist as your legacy.

To conclude, I strongly advise you not to invest your time on this forum. There is a small inner circle of white segregationists and xenophobes that runs the forum, and nearly everyone else ultimately is banned or leaves in disgust. In my ten years on the forum, I have seen less than 300 people ever participate on the forum in a month. It is the same inner circle of loser white people year after years whose real game is to mess with new people and anyone different from their almost bizarre view of even decent white cultural values. They often pretend to be liberal or progressive, but really it is all just a game for their race-click bait game.

DebatePolitics Review of DebatePolitics.com: Limited Depth, Inconsistent Moderation, and Trivial Jabs

I joint DebatePolitics.com (DP) about a year ago with the name Xelor, and you can have a look at the threads I created and the argumentation I presented to get a sense of the content on the site. Most opening posts on DP often quote parts of articles with a sentence or two summarizing the content, with very few members presenting their own editorial or argumentative essay. Although, I have started a few threads of that sort, where I take a clear and unequivocal stance on certain subjects.

The discourse on DP is often jejune, with responses that usually do not delve deeply into the complex issues of our time. Most responses tend to be little more than a sentence or two. Both liberal and conservative members post fairly similar responses, with conservatives often posting remarks that are not related to the actual thread topic. Despite political leanings, many posts on the site are made by people who are not well versed on the subject being discussed, yet they express strong opinions.

The site seems to have a few members who derail threads they disagree with, and these members often cause distractions. On the same day, I received my first infraction on the site; I was banned from the site, despite my argument against it being based on the simple fact that truth was not defamation. Additionally, moderators do not seem to exercise much consistency when it comes to assigning infractions.

DP's non-political sections are pleasant enough, although it can be challenging to get members to share their experiences or recipes. If you're seeking a web forum that encourages rigorous and coherent debate on public policies, DP may not be the best fit for you. However, if you're seeking trivial jabs and rational shortcomings, the site may be ideal.

DebatePolitics Debatepolitics.com Review: Good Place to Discuss Politics with Some Downsides

Debatepolitics.com is a website that I think has some good and bad points. One of the downsides is that the moderators can be pretty strict. They might ban you without warning or explanation, even if you didn't do anything wrong. It's frustrating when you don't know what rule you broke.

The people who use the website can also be a bit aggressive. Sometimes they don't seem willing to really listen to your point of view, and they just want to argue. They might say that you're not making sense, or they might just repeat their own ideas without really considering yours.

On the other hand, I do think that Debatepolitics.com is a good place to have discussions about politics. There are a lot of different topics you can choose to talk about, and there are always people who are interested in sharing their opinions. You can learn a lot from the conversations, even if you don't always agree with what other people are saying.

Overall, I would recommend Debatepolitics.com if you're interested in debating politics. Just be aware that the moderators can be strict and the community can be a bit aggressive at times. But if that doesn't bother you, then it's definitely worth checking out.

DebatePolitics DebatePolitics Review: Alt-Right Takeover and Challenging Discussions

If you're looking for a forum where everyone agrees with each other, DebatePolitics is not the place for you. In fact, it seems like the alt-right has taken over and if you don't agree with them, you won't be welcomed. Since the election of Trump, the moderators have given the alt-right a lot of power and if you're left-leaning, you better watch out. They have a lot of friends in the moderator pool and they will start racking up the points against you.

If you want to have an open debate and listen to different points of view, you might want to look elsewhere. This isn't the place for that. Be prepared to be challenged at every turn if you're going to stick around. The moderators are constantly changing and you never know who is going to be running the show. Sometimes they are fair and sometimes it seems like they have their own agenda.

Despite all this, there are still some interesting debates happening on the site. If you can get past the moderators and the alt-right, there are some solid discussions happening. Just be sure to come prepared and ready to back up your opinions with facts. Don't be afraid to stand up for what you believe in and you might just find that you enjoy the site after all.

DebatePolitics DebatePolitics Review: Biased Moderation and Intense Debates Make for a Wild Ride

DebatePolitics, oh man, let me tell you, it's a pretty wild ride. The basic idea is that people can go on there and debate all sorts of political topics. It can get pretty intense, let me tell you. The moderators are supposed to be there to make sure things don't get too out of hand, but sometimes it seems like they're actually making things worse. I mean, they don't always show up when they're needed, and when they do, they seem to be more interested in punishing people than actually moderating.

And here's the thing - they definitely have their own political biases. If you're not on the same page as them, watch out. They'll come after you with unequal enforcement of the rules. It's like they're trying to silence anyone who doesn't agree with them.

Now, I'm not saying that DebatePolitics is all bad. It's a small site, so it's not like it's influencing millions of people or anything. But if you're looking for a place where you can get a balanced view of political opinions, I wouldn't recommend it. There are just too many problems with the way things are run there.

Overall, my advice would be to look elsewhere if you're looking for a place to discuss politics. Just... be careful where you go. There are a lot of places out there that claim to be all about free speech and open dialogue, but really they just want to push their own agendas.

DebatePolitics DebatePolitics: Unfair and Biased towards Trump Supporters

DebatePolitics is a website that sadly lacks fairness and impartiality. For those who do not support Donald Trump's policies or actions, this site will prove to be a waste of time. I've been on the receiving end of many infractions from the Conservative Monitors who seem to have an agenda that favors only Trump supporters. The forum rules are in place, but they appear to be applied selectively. It seems only posters with liberal views are the ones who are punished for breaking them.

The most frustrating aspect of this site is the double standard. There is no balance or objectivity when it comes to political debates. Members are not encouraged to share their views. Instead, they are censored and discouraged from participating. And even if they are allowed to post, their comments are met with ridicule and attacked by Trump supporters.

Unfortunately, this site has some of the most unintelligent members on the planet. Many of them seem to lack critical thinking skills or the ability to form articulate arguments. Instead, they resort to ad hominem attacks and use gut feelings to support their views.

In conclusion, I would not recommend DebatePolitics to anyone who is interested in political debates. It's not the right platform for those seeking a fair, respectful and intelligent discourse. If you happen to support Donald Trump, then perhaps this site may appeal to you, but for those who are looking for free and open discussions, it's not worth your time.

DebatePolitics A Respectful Haven for Political Debate: My Review of DebatePolitics

But, I eventually got in and what I saw was quite interesting. There were lots of people with different opinions discussing politics in a respectful manner. Some of the discussions were quite engaging, and I found that I learned things I didn't know before.

One thing that I liked about DebatePolitics was that it had a lot of different categories on which you could comment on. From foreign policy to gun control, healthcare, and everything in between, the site really covers a lot of ground. I also found that, for the most part, the community seems to be quite well-informed on the issues, which is always a good thing.

However, there were some negatives. For one, the site seems to be moderated quite heavily. As I mentioned before, I had a really hard time getting my first post up, even though it was simply an opinion. It also seems like there were some political leanings that were more welcome than others, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it can make the community seem more closed off.

Overall, I think that DebatePolitics is a solid site for people who want to discuss politics in a respectful and informed way. There are certainly some drawbacks, but if you're willing to put in the effort to be respectful and courteous, then this is definitely a site worth checking out.

DebatePolitics Debate Politics: A One-Sided forum for Trump Supporters Only - A Toxic Environment

DebatePolitics (debatepolitics.com) is an interesting forum indeed. However, if you're someone who is not in favor of Mr. Trump, then you might have a tough time here. The mods are quick to sanction people who voice out against Trump, and they can even ban you for days without any prior notice. Now, let's not ignore the fact that many Trump supporters here use insulting and disrespectful language against people who are not supporting their VIP.

But that's not the only problem here. Except for 'Helix,' all the mods are pro-Trump, and they have no tolerance for anyone who talks trash about Trump. They will treat you with total disrespect and will even fabricate reasons to ban you from the forum. You might feel like your freedom of speech is in danger here because there is no way to dispute their decision or complaints about the site's management.

The Debate Politics Forum is a one-sided forum; you won't find any room for people who do not support Mr. Trump. The mods will spy on you, even watch your every move; beware of 'Note Bene' and 'RedAskin.' These two moderators might be keeping a close eye on you.

In short, it's not a friendly place for anyone who doesn't support Trump. Rather than being a place for political discourse, it seems like a toxic environment. So, if you're someone who wants to participate in a forum that isn't one-sided, it's best to steer clear of this one.

DebatePolitics Mixed experience at DebatePolitics: uneven rules enforcement & creepy Mods, but savvy users can turn the system around

So, I gotta say, DebatePolitics is a bit of a mixed bag. On one hand, you've got some Mods that are just plain creepy. They're always watching, always lurking, always looking for an excuse to shut down a debate or give someone a ban. But then you've got others that seem pretty reasonable - they act polite and fair, but you can tell they've got their own biases and philosophies they're pushing.

The thing that really gets me, though, is how unevenly they enforce the rules. Some posters, who I guess are like pets to the Mods or something, get away with all sorts of baiting, flaming, and trolling. But if someone else tries the same thing, they'll get hammered with warnings and infractions and all that stuff.

And don't even get me started on how they abuse the concept of "ad hom". Like, I get that it's a thing, but they'll use it to justify all sorts of draconian punishments, even when there's no actual ad hom involved.

But here's the thing - if you're smart about it, you can turn the system around on them. Once you figure out what the Mods like and what they don't like, you can use that knowledge to push your own agenda and not get caught. I mean, I've been doing it for a while under this name and I'm still here, so I must be doing something right. They might be searching for me under other names, but hey, that's just the game we're playing.

So yeah, if you're into debating politics and don't mind the occasional creep factor, DebatePolitics might be worth checking out. Just be prepared to play the game and not take it too seriously - it's just a forum, after all.

DebatePolitics DebatePolitics.com Review: Bizarre Rules and Questionable Moderation Ruin the Experience

I recently checked out DebatePolitics (debatepolitics.com) and let me tell you, it's a wild ride. The first thing you'll notice is that the rules are...interesting, to say the least. They start off talking about freedom of speech and all that jazz, but quickly take a turn for the worse with rule number 4: "Don't be a Jerk". Are these guys serious? I feel like I'm back in elementary school with little boys starting up a "No Gurls Aloud" club!

As you continue perusing the site, you'll notice some incomplete sentences, contradictory instructions, and straight-up impossible demands. And if you happen to break any of these rules (or maybe even if you don't), watch out for rule #6a: you'll get sent down to what they call the "Basement", where moderators will bully and name-call like they're still in middle school. It's honestly a bit ridiculous.

But my absolute favorite rule has got to be #7: "English - All threads will be in the English language. Threads and posts which are not in English may be edited or deleted at the discretion of a Moderator. Please include translations with any posts that are not in English." Yikes. I can't tell if they're being serious or not, but it's definitely not a good look.

To top it all off, the rules page ends with some Hebrew and Cyrillic text, with no translation in sight. Come on, guys! And don't even get me started on the moderators. Not only do they not follow their own "Don't be a Jerk" rule, but they also seem to enjoy suspending or even outright banning anyone who dares question the strange rules on this site.

All in all, I can't say I'd recommend DebatePolitics to anyone. The site may seem like a good idea at first, but the bizarre rules and questionable moderation really detract from the experience.

DebatePolitics DebatePolitics Review: Is the Platform Biased Towards Trump Administration?

DebatePolitics is a website that has sparked a lot of controversy in recent times. Some people have praised it as an excellent platform for political debate and discussion, while others have criticized it for what they perceive as bias towards the Trump administration and a lack of impartiality in moderation.

One of the main complaints about DebatePolitics is that the moderators appear to be heavily biased towards President Trump. In many instances, commenters have stated that they feel as though their comments have been unfairly deleted or that they have been issued an infraction for no apparent reason. Some have even gone so far as to suggest that there may be Russian trolls operating on the site in order to sway political discussion in favor of the current administration.

The site is run by an anonymous team of moderators, which makes it difficult to determine who is responsible for the often-partisan behavior. Many commenters have alleged that infamous moderator 'nota bene' is notorious for finding arbitrary reasons to delete posts or issue infractions, making it difficult to engage in meaningful debate on the platform.

Despite these complaints, there are many commenters who are regulars on DebatePolitics and who find it to be an invaluable forum for political discussion. They cite the quality and diversity of opinions expressed on the site, as well as the depth and thoughtfulness of the debate, as reasons why they continue to participate.

Overall, DebatePolitics is a site with a lot of promise, but it is also a site with some significant flaws. Anyone considering participation in this community should be aware of the potential for bias and manipulation in the moderation, and be prepared to deal with these issues if they arise. However, for those who are up for the challenge, DebatePolitics can be a rewarding and enlightening place to engage in political discussion.

DebatePolitics Toxic Website Alert: A Haven for Trolls and Bullies Promoting Hate Speech and Extremist Behavior!

This website is a disaster! Don't fall for their trap and get yourself into a hateful spiral of bullying, censorship, and violence. Oh, the amount of times I've seen someone being compared to Hitler just because they have different political opinions! Not to mention the moderators who are openly biased and sometimes even participate in the bullying!

This platform is not for civilized debate, but rather a haven for trolls, bullies, and extremists. It's disturbing how users blatantly call for violence against others with opposing political views. What's even more unsettling is that the moderators don't seem to mind or care. They choose to turn a blind eye to all the negativity and even send threatening private messages to users who speak out against it.

The purging of members for no apparent reason is the norm and moderators seem to have lost control of the site ages ago. There is no moderation of trolling or name-calling, which is as common as it gets and leads to a lot of hurtful comments being thrown around freely.

I can't stress enough how upset I am that platforms like this exist. It's not only a breeding ground for hatred, anger, and division, but also a place where innocent people can get seriously hurt. Actual political debate here is a pipe dream. Members come seeking political enlightenment but instead become victims of a vicious cycle of trolling, bullying, and censorship.

I urge you to be cautious and stay away from this toxic site. It should be shut down immediately for promoting hate speech and extremist behavior. It wouldn't surprise me if law enforcement, including the FBI, started monitoring this website to prevent the spread of violence and extremist activity.
