Have you ever read Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut? That's pretty much TMP in a nutshell.


So basically Tango is there just to bury any posts of merit in a sea of bollocks, Smokey is there to lower the average IQ, Legion4 is there to block out any tendency for reasoned debate and Bill is there to make sure no one is able to rise out of the slough of shite.

The lowest common denominator is what TMP does best. It's like the Daily Mail, but without the wit and the pictures of c-list 'celebs' flashing their knickers getting out of a limo.

I looked at the home page the other day - it was 80% tango copy paste shite. How can any of that be enjoyable or relevant that people could not find by reading the news or google, then the fuckwit crossposts it half the threads.

But the news or Google aren't free from the taint of non rightwing ideology. TMP on the other hand filters out such dangerous thinking, making it a safe place for all the family (except of course one wouldn't let the little woman near a computer in case she tried to join in with men's talk)
Why do you think that TMP Plus is full of idiots asking other idiots for advice about legal issues, health problems, marital matters and cooking recipes? They daren't go anywhere else because it's full of foreigners and commies!

Beers on me if you can find a Legion post that doesn't mention that he was in the military once.

4TH post down. You said 'Beers' didn't you? I will have a case of S&N's Tutankhamun Ale. It's a snip at £30 a bottle. But I would like mine in a mountain-top bar in Switzerland please, so I can enjoy it properly. Last time I bought a beer there it was 20 euro for a becks.
