It does seem to be another overspill from the politics forum.
I don't visit politics that much, but I have to say it's got 10x worse as a result of the button-parade - the only forum really to have done so, which is also telling.
I recently posted a batch of 20 posts in one thread there, cos I'm a British person and felt duty bound to add the British perspective to the recent Manchester Bombings, mainly because there was a bunch of foreigners who were ignorant of the concept of the British stiff upper lip. The only reason I ended up posting 20 posts is because the mere fact that someone was not posting "behead all muslims", or some variant thereof, meant that I was pounced upon by every rating's happy mental case that particular forum has to offer. What's more hilarious is that at no time did anyone even ask me whether beheading all muslims would be a good idea, I had merely posted something that was not "behead all muslims" and, more importantly, posting something that contradicted someone who was posting a variant of "behead all muslims" which also exposed their own foreign status, leading to a whole raft of butthurt from all the foreigners who post in that sub-forum pretending to be not-foreigners.
The final stats for that brief couple of hours of posting a couple of dozen posts in one thread were:
184 ratings of what one would describe as 'disagree' without actually using the disagree button. My alerts history only goes back 17 pages so I was only able to chart the exact response from 141 ratings, which were as follows:
Butthurt - 40 ratings
Cuck - 29
Shit - 29
Retarded - 24
Fake News - 5
Racist - 5 (seems ironic? )
WTF? - 2
Your Fired - 1
Sheeple - 1
Prosper 1
Disgusting - 1
TLDR - 1
Up Yours - 1
Rolls Eyes -1

And a few on there I don't particularly think are related to the circle jerk per-se, but probably just followed the 'buzz' of the moment and sheepishly hit what everyone else was hitting because they were hoping for some kind of extended entertainment. Others, however, its a shame their stats are partially hidden by the alerts page only going back 17 pages, causing 40 odd ratings to go unanaylsed.
This one small teeny tiny batch of pretty banal informative posting has now accounted for 20% of my entire Butthurt accumulated stats. And then, just from that one little stint of a couple of hours in one thread and a couple of dozen posts, lambchump19 then goes hunting for me in shitbox, like some crazed Elmer Fudd, Salaciousdumb suddenly appears in a random Codex Library thread dumping more ratings on some innocuous nerdage post, Kalaribot (who missed out on the list due to being an insta-rater) suddenly appears in a news thread slapping ratings on me like a bureaucrat with a deadline. And apparently these are the people rating me butthurt!
I haven't had this much post-thread 'chase me, chase me' behaviour since I last had a brief forum debate with a manic/chronic SJW of the labotomise please variety.
& not only are at least half the name up there of the "who the fuck are you?" but even more than that are names that barely ever do anything other than post in Politics.
But what's really grating, even if you don't give a shit about any of that, what really shows the absolutely utterly retarded nature of that whole circle jerk, is that their choice of buttons to press is incredibly weak and uninspired. We have, like, 50-60 buttons to choose from, all accounting for very small variations in response, but, no, this is just too much for your average politics brain, in politics its just... Shit... Butthurt... Retarded... Cuck...Shit... Butthurt... Retarded... Cuck...Shit... Butthurt... Retarded... Cuck...Shit... Butthurt... Retarded... Cuck...Shit... Butthurt... Retarded... Cuck...Shit... Butthurt... Retarded... Cuck...Shit... Butthurt... Retarded... Cuck...Shit... Butthurt... Retarded... Cuck...Shit... Butthurt... Retarded... Cuck... Y'know, how about the occasional :disagree: or, maybe perhaps an odd :parrot: or, shocking, I know, perhaps :nuke it from orbit: . I mean, Jesus H Christ, only one of those fuckers had the sheer brilliance to use the "up yours" rating. Prosperising's too good for em! Alas, it's all too much for them. And, like all good circle jerks, its only getting worse, like a maelstrom of thickheadedness sucking passing boats into a void of banality.
Now... come on you ragingly butthurt fucktarded zombie sheep, at least try to rate this stack of bollocks with something approaching at least a sense of individuality...
