PSA-This website has a section for politics.


Sep 6, 2018, 9:34 AM

I do not believe that many Tiger Fans understand how much trouble politics can cause within our family. We take sides and hard feeling develop. Here we are starting a fresh new season of football which should be the primary reason we are here and something as ugly as politics rears its head and divides us before the entire country.

Clemson University is not an arm of a political party as are most universities across our nation. While some professors at Clemson feel morally obligated to teach and preach their political views Clemson University is taking the correct stance which is nonpolitical. Rightly so, Clemson executes our contracts faithfully. Anyone thinking that something as trivial as politics could cause Clemson University to undermine its integrity by breaching a contract is being emotional to the point of being foolish.

The owners/operators of this website likewise take the same position. No one here can accuse them of publicizing their political opinions or supporting politics on either side. They treat us, people of both sides of the political discussion, the same. That reveals something much more important that a man's politics, it reveals his integrity. That is also true of Clemson University.

Clemson has remained one of the few schools which doesn't tarnish its good name by becoming petty and political. Each issue is dealt with according to fairness and honesty with integrity which is rare in today's world.

Please show you're part of Clemson by posting your political opinions and comments on political subjects on the P&R board and let's help the owners of this website maintain the integrity of this forum as a venue of fellowship and brotherhood which is untainted and uncontaminated with such divisions.

Can we please return to arguments about who should start at quarterback?

TL;DR

THE P&R BORED IS THAT WAY ---------------------->

So you two are saying the only thing you have ever post about here is Clemson football related ?

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Technically no such thing as 1000%.

It is a scale from 0-100.

I agree 100%. It's frustrating to visit this board to read about football, recruiting updates, etc and have to sift through redundant political posts.

I dislike the division it causes.

Nothing breaks up a good lovefest for Clemson like politics.

They just prefer the clicks over managing the content.***

Agreed!

I also wish we could express differences of opinion here without


Sep 6, 2018, 7:31 PM

receiving TDs from those who disagree. TDs should be reserved for bad posts and trolls. Just because you disagree with what is written in a post does not make it a bad post. Some debate is always good - providing its civil.

But this is probably just wishful thinking on my part.

Well said. I was tempted to post something similar last night. I come here for the enjoyment and distraction. It's like arguing during seks.

I don't get why with a political section of the forum things of that nature keep popping up under the other sections of the forum.

Sep 7, 2018, 5:31 PM

Go look up how OCES allowed a lie to be told about the "banana incident" so that way it could be a "teachable moment to the white student body", and how Clemson OCES tried to hide the fact that the director of OCES (Alicia Smith) husband attended the following See The Stripes protest and proceeded to commit assault and battery against 2 students from the school newspaper who were there to support the protest and document it for their story.

There are leaked emails in which Alecia Smith and OCES admit that they knew the "banana incident" was not only committed by a black student, but that they knew it was not a racist event and that OCES wanted the false narrative of racism to be perpetuated so that way it could "teach a lesson to the white student body".

What did Clemson do? Turned a blind eye and swept it under the rug.

Clemson is msot certainly NOT "nonpolitical".

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Clemson refused to take sides.


Sep 7, 2018, 8:38 PM

It doesn't matter which side you're on Clemson didn't make you happy. That's an inherent part of being neutral, everyone hates you. The only thing you get out of it is you get to keep your integrity.
