I thought you guys were smart? I go into the politics thread and I see all this republican biased talk and people labeling Democrats as socialists/communists? For those of you who are more framiliar with the politcal statistics of the people on this site, could you give me an idea of the ratio of democrats, republicans, and other parties please? Also if you don't mind, tell me what party you lean towards the most (or hate the least)? I'm Democrat, and so far from what I've read it seems like this board is %80-%90 hardcore republican and the other 10-20% are moderates with only a sliver of strong democrats.

 

If you had looked closely, you also would have seen Republicans labeled as Nazis and fascists, so the labeling isn't one way.  In fact, I'd bet if you looked really close (it's a huge thread), you'd find that the Republicans had been labelled as Nazis and fascists before anyone labelled a Democrat as either communist or socialist.

I really don't know what the ratio of Dems to Reps to other parties has anything to do with anything.  If you're a Dem, you're a Demo.  Why should it matter how many other Dems there are on this site?  Are you going to stop visiting OT.com if it turns out to be 90% Reps and only 10% Dems?  You should be here for reasons other than politics.
