The administrators and moderators are crooked, the owner is oblivious to the chaos on the site

1.0
The absent owner(s) allow the morale on the forum to decline. The site runs on participant's donations. Their appointed moderators play favorites and abuse their power. They are the worst I've ever witnessed on the Internet. Partial to their pets and treat people they don't like badly. The owners allow false advertising on their site banner. Civility is not a must and some moderators are as partial as they come politically. The advertise that bias is optional and civility is a must. If the site were on the up and up, the moderators would live up to the owner's claim. They don't. The basement is an area of the forum that needs to be eliminated. Mostly leftist trolls inhabit and are allowed to bully more conservatively leaned posters. This wouldn't be so bad but this sort of thing is encouraged by the moderators of the forum. I'd give this site a negative rating if allowed. For now, I give it a D-. allowed to

User's recommendation: Don't waste your time unless you're a masochist.

The Sacred and the Profane

Debate Politics Website owners and moderator operators have their favorite posters of course. They're all rightwingers. The poster who challenges and outduels the chosen and protected posters gets dinged for bad points or gets ejected if the challenges and defeats continue of the mods and their protected posters. No one with a sense of justice and fairness should attend this website. It is a lost cause and hopeless to change or modify. The owners and moderators use their agent posters to set up arguments with liberal or progressive posters. Then the liberals / progressives get dinged or ejected when they challenge the protected rightwing posters of the rightwing owners and moderators. Caveat emptor.

DebatePolitics dot com discussion board is a fraud

1.6
DebatePolitics.com misrepresents its banner that says civility is a must. DP does it knowingly. DP is thereby a fraudulent website. Debate Politics solicits donations by members which creates a privileged class of posters. Moderators actively participate in posting to personally post to members Mods do not like. Mods in their posting engage in personal attacks against posters the Mods dislike and disapprove. Mods actively take sides in debates to advocate the conservative and, most often, the rightwing point of view. I have witnessed and experienced this reality since I became an active posting member in 2014. The bias of the Mods to the extreme right includes the militarizing of the society, i.e., supporting and protecting the rightwing veterans of military service who post and who actively donate to the DP appeal for funds. The appeal for funds for DP appears continuously on the site's Index page. There is a line bar showing the progress of the donations appeals; the bar in red and green appears continuously 24/7. I myself have had a constant and ongoing private contact with the Mods about this via Personal Messenger. This has been entirely futile, the reason being the Mods are set and fixed in their rightwing purposes, means, goals. Because there has been no willingness to modify or change the DP website, I have come to Pissed Consumer to try to affect some change to the Debate Politics website and its discussion forums. If DP is incapable of modifying or improving its policies and practices, then internet consumers of politics and government would need to know that DebatePolitics dot com is a fraudulent website.
