PeteF and Detbuch

Please pickup the phone and debate among yourselves, please..... This is a fishing site.
Better yet, go fishing and have your discussions. It is ok to agree to disagree...... there.

Yup I’ve been torn between it being comical or pathetic, watching these two debate endlessly, as iF ANYTHING either says will change the view of the other. Both need to end it it’s beyond ridiculous at this point.

I would be just as glad to see the political forum die, but as long as Detbuch continues to spread YouTube videos of which many are baloney I’ll keep pointing out his bull#^&#^&#^&#^&.
In the 20s and 30s the German people thought that there were no problems with political figures in their country.
In the past 6 months Ashli Babbit has gone from criminal to someone who the former guy says he should have had flags flown at half mast for.
Sorry I’d like this country to continue for my kids.
I’ll stand against Trump and Trumplicans.

He trolls and you keep feeding him a reason to do so, if nobody responded to his conspiracy theories, he will find another forum to troll. It’s just you and him, he thrives on pushing your buttons, I suggest you let him eat cheese and go crappie fishing.

At least Pete does not resort to the personal insults that are so common with Detbuch's posts. And at least Pete fishes.

If when I looked at his posts and views they were minimal, I would agree with you. But politics and peoples opinions are incremental.
So the difference among people who actually vote is decided by fractions.

He is too smart not to get vaccinated.

I do wonder who the loathsome individual was who told him to come to a fishing site to debate politics.

Funny thing a debate takes more than one person, I wish Pete would just let him post without anyone responding, that alone will drive him nuts; although I’m sure that’s a very short drive.

At this point I'm not sure it's not just a bot scraping videos off of crackpot websites and auto posting.

Well that was a short break in the never ending debate between DeBarr and Pete, so much for taking the summer off.
