I'm so sick of the political listhosts here at the UofC. But most especially the [Rep]. It seems like all they do is complain over and over about how horrible protestors are. And swear at them, and the [ucdems] horridly bash political leaders, etc, etc. Even if they don't agree with others viewpoints, why don't they, for once, actually realize how amazing it is that people are coming together so passionately about a political issue and how they organizing and expressing themselves. I'm annoyed with everyone complaing about the opposite side. If you want to do something, if you really want to express yourself, then organize something, take some action. Express your views positively. Realize that rudely commenting about others is not helping anything, and is extremely unprofessional. Don't just stand around or type out emails bashing the people with differing views--instead articulate your own well and voice a motivating argument for yourself. Constructive criticism may be ok, but definitely not shouting names and verbally harassing. In my opinion you're just making yourself look weak when you do that. On a related matter: Slam campaigns are one of my biggest pet-peeves. I most definitely will not vote for someone who runs any kind of advertising ripping their opponent apart.
Note for the wondering: I am signed up for the Young Democratic Socialist, Republican, and Democrat listhosts. I have liberal views on some things, very conservative views on others, and really not one party holds a platform I agree completely with.
