The D&D leans very left. There's a lot of youth in here, which tends to lean democratic, as well as minority youth (Asians, Indians, blacks, etc) which tend to be extremely liberal. They attempt "pile-on techniques" to try to strengthen their weak positions and intimidate the right, but the majority of the board sees through this, as it's been exposed time and time again. If you need a quick primer on the left, I'd suggest you read through my stratification of the D&D liberals. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=224450

We are all statists, you included.
Ascertaining the situation, I believe this is the appropriate response. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/2UFP5a4RjUs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
When someone on the internet disagrees with me, calls me a racist, ignorant or any other "demeaning" term...
Dear OP, read this forum with an open mind and see for yourself which side posts the most logic and data to back up their view points.
The answer is yes, but why you find this to be an unusual quality of he BBS is beyond me. Most people in the world are statists, and that's not necessarily a bad thing.
