how many of these political questions are serious?

Question

in the politics category? most of this stuff sounds like something you'd hear on a saturday night live skit

Answer 1

1 in 10

Answer 2

Opinion- almost all politics is a matter of opinion, with conflicting facts and statistical distortions abounding.

Since this tends to be the case, many just like to have a little fun with the section. I'm included in that group.

Every now and then, someone comes up with information to a light hearted question that is unique and useful.

Answer 3

I have often thought that categories such as Immigration should be divided into questions and opinions. I'd hate to think someone might rely on any advice given there. Still, there should be a place to have a spirited discussion of issues and enjoy being sarcastic (even if everyone else thinks you are an idiot).

Answer 4

many are just crude exercises in propagandizing e.g the leading questions that begin like :" why do/does.......?"
when really they are stating a biased view -not an established fact. it is plain tired at this stage.

many genuine questions are people looking for help won their homework.

that said there is just about enough thoughtful ones to stop it degenerating into total farce.- just about!

Answer 5

Nothing wrong with a little fun, some of my answers are just that, But the ones that get me are the obvious hate questions that you know are there just to spread that hate around some.

Answer 6

That is because people personally attack you and have no intention of agreeing and you are trying to get a laugt out of people who share your views.

This allows those people to look at things differently so they if they have to can rebute better in the real world.

Answer 7

This is funnier.
