    Poll: Do you get any pleasure out of “owning” your opponents? (owning the libs/owning the cons)?

        I've been following the owning culture for a long while and i'm emotionally drained. There's nothing good there. I like clever jokes, not ones optimized for reputational damage. Both politically and in apolitical conversations.

        I only get pleasure out of "owning" supposedly liberal (but actually extremely dogmatic) frenemies, i.e., the folks I agree with in substance, but who find ever more arbitrary and capricious exclusionary language and affirmations to alienate me.

        the whole thing is a sugar rush followed by unremitting bummers and honestly most people on the Hell Bird Site get past the bummers by continuing to do it
