I swear the ratio must be like 50:1 extreme conservative maniacs to somewhat logical people.

I wish 4ct would get better rules so all the alt-right scumbags are banned.

that is how it has always been on the internet, right from the very beginning 20 years ago all of the racists flocked to the internet and its message boards to say the "politically incorrect" things they couldn't say out loud anymore in society.

More or less that. It provides a shield of anonymity for cowards.

The disturbing thing is that it's actually been mainstreamed into political discourse now, and the lines are blurring.

Not to mention, these are people we have to deal with out in the real world, which is scary.

I'm lucky never to have met one.
I do have a friend I like who has an awful habit of of going on about 'the war on white civilization' and other such nonsense, but he's not the kind of guy who would resort to insults.

Op should be banned. Freedom of speech mofo

It would be more accurate to say it's dominated by anti-SJW types.

If you don't like it, join a board that's heavily moderated (like progrider which inevitably become liberal safe spaces).

But I suspect you do like it.
