Usually happens in GM threads... though I found out who it was (a banned poster) and I told him I knew who he was... and he has stopped, since.

Doing something like this... gaming the poll... is a sure sign of weakness. One KNOWS that there position is either inferior, idiotic, or both, so the individual has to mess with the poll to give their position a false sense of legitimacy and to assist them with their weak ego. It's always been pathetic and always will be.

This is so true.

The sad part is they think their position is right and strong but in reality it is pathetic and weak like the whole "protecting our race" garbage. They are just pathetic individuals that need to lift themselves up any way they can to feel better about themselves.

Sad, really sad.

Yeah, this is pretty accurate. Racism is nearly always a fear/ego thing.
 
To me, they serve three purposes:

1) They sequester all the idiots in one basket so they jerk each other off and leave the rest of us alone.
2) They show the rest of us an excellent example of what not to become.
3) A reminder that there are still ignorant people around.

This, plus the idea that protecting free speech doesn't mean protecting only the speech we like.
 
I took a look at the admin logs. Jeremy Mitchel, the sole white supremacist on this thread seems to have gotten several of his white supremacist buddies to vote. They are the only ones who voted for that option, with the exception of one other regular poster.

I thought it was suspicious the way the 3rd option was far and away the front runner with only one person voting for option 4; then suddenly #4 shot up ahead of all the others. This thread gives credence to the position that DP should only let registered posters vote. Of course, allowing non-registered guests to vote makes a site attractive to check out, so I guess it makes it a tough call.

In any event, the white supremacists' hijacking of this poll in no way legitimizes their pathetic views.

I'm going to delete all of their votes so the poll seems a bit more legit.
 
I've read this a couple of times through and I still don't get it. Could you elaborate, please?

What I'm saying is, they have a lot of the right ideas when it comes to preserving and upholding their people, but they're focusing on the wrong qualities to protect. Take all of the nonsense they talk about preserving bloodlines and maintaining the birth rates-- and they're absolutely right except for their stupid preoccupation with pale skin. We absolutely need to have more babies. We absolutely need to pass our cultural values down to our children, and protect our culture and our territory from foreign invasion. We absolutely need to promote a unified consciousness, a concept of duty, and the will to survive at all costs.

We need to do all of these things for the good of our people. I just don't give a damn about white people. My people are the American people, of all colors.
 
I had no idea DP was inhabited by so many racists.:shock:

Looks like they're mounting a resurgence...

It isn't. The resident white supremecist has enlisted his buddies to vote in the poll. You don't have to be registered to vote on DP.

Then that should have a big fat WHOA on it cuz it makes the place look bad. Just my not so humble opinion. They want to vote? Then they should take the time to register. (Not). Again..just my opinion.

If you don't want guests voting in polls, don't make polls in the polls forum. Guests can only vote here, not in any of the other sub-forums.

Indeed, this really should have been in Sex and Sexuality :2razz:
 
Quite the opposite I find.

What the INTERNET does with those who have a minority viewpoint is allow them to connect with many others who have the same view point.

People love to belong.

So it can, and I use that word can very heavily reinforce those views and sometimes make them more hardline.
So, my Pollyanna approach works not, as I feared.
So what does ?
Brave Americans to publicly denounce these extremists ?
I do think they should be exposed, mold does not grow well in the sunshine.
Another idea, all polls should be only open to members and without "privacy"....
Vote and then sign the vote, be brave....or foolish.

Obviously, registration is a concept whose time has come.
As I say, vote and sign, be a man.
 
The poll is now stating over half responding are white supremacists. I would think that would be concerning to forum administration, but not really my concern.

Do you think it is legitimate numbers? A raid? Does the high number of Ron Paul supporters factor in? (Stormfront is essentially a Ron Paul campaign HQ)

What do you think is going on with this thread's poll?
 
Well the results certainly tell us something now don't they?

I can only think of a very small number of actual members who would vote for the fourth option. This is obviously somebody packing the numbers.

I'm fine with random guests voting in polls, but this is an organized hijacking of a poll. I'm not staying up at night worrying about it, but it does seem to give DP a black eye.

Kori, showing once again that his amazing quality is that he can take arguments, views, and groups that are normally horrible and vile and manage to present them in a way that by god you can kind of get behind.
 
the meaning of the word "racism" has evolved.

No, it hasn't

Racism

Just because you are ****tacular at using words correctly doesn't mean that the definition has "evolved".

The words you're looking for is likely bigotry, prejudice, hatred prior to the word muslim.

It shouldn't unless the person is just entirely and utterly ignorant of how the internet, message boards, and anonymous polls work.

Debate Politics doesn't exist in a bubble. It allows any person who posts on the internet to vote in its polls section as a means of attracting interest. We've seen only one white supremicist actuallly comment in this thread with multiple people that are ACTUAL MEMBERS saying otherwise.

If anything, the black eye would be on the OP who chose to do this anonymously rather than showing votes publicly, thus making it impossible to see how many of those votes are done by non-members likely showing your drive my voters and how many were done by actual members, of which we've already had it confirmed only had 1 person voting for that.
