The staff should think about getting a handle on personal insults, possibly by removing the whole post. Otherwise, this site will go the way of all flesh like many other sites. Thank you
This is a self moderating forum. Ignore the uncivil ones is your best bet.

If you think you’ve been insulted, just flag (@) a moderator.
We’ve all been insulted. However, if you think it goes beyond the pale then the above is an option.

There is always a way to respond with words without lowering yourself to their level.

OP didn’t you call people “dorks” for supporting Donald Trump?
You don’t like to be insulted yet you insult people who voices an opposing opinion or doesn’t hate Trump like you do .
Hypocritical no?

Perhaps you should spend some time reading the rules:
Rules
Permanent Ban
- Promoting acts of violence.
- Promoting or describing how to commit any illegal act such as vandalism, fraud, illegal weapons modification, the purchase of illegal drugs, etc.
- Posting pornography.
- Calling for violent revolution against the government.
- A repeated pattern of disrespecting the forum culture.
- A repeated pattern of anti-social behavior.
- A repeated pattern of repeatedly insulting site, community members, or the staff.
- Having been suspended multiple times for any of the 7 and 3 day ban rules.
- Spamming for another website or trying to sell some product. You are of course allowed to post links to other sites, and you are even allowed to make threads about products you are selling, but you are not allowed to use this site as an advertising platform.
3 Day Suspension
- Flaming (all people involved in the flame war will get the same suspension, whether they started it or not - if someone starts flaming or insulting you, report them instead of responding).
- Uncivilized behavior (a pattern of rudeness or name-calling).
- Derailing a thread to argue about anything (the difference between “argument” and “debate” should be intuitively understood).
- Posting “gore” directly (this includes mutilated bodies, suicide victims, people with their heads blown off, aborted fetuses and mutilated animals, etc. “Gore” content can be used with the blur function or linked to, but with an explicit warning.
- Anti-social behavior.
- Engaging and arguing with an anti-social or uncivilized poster, instead of reporting them (if a certain number of users report an account, they will be blocked from posting - the only response you should make to an anti-social poster is to encourage others to report their account).
- Posting obvious bait threads.
- Continued poor quality posting.
7 Day Suspension
- Commenting on a thread without having read it. Claiming to have read the thread but not understood it will generally not be considered an acceptable excuse.
- Posting hardcore pornography.
- Attempting to cleverly avoid the no violence rule by making posts that are “technically” not illegal (“I hope x illegal act does/doesn’t happen to x person,” “x person deserves x illegal act,” etc.) This includes posting meme images of specific individuals being murdered.
- Linking to sites which allow for illegal downloads, including torrent sites.
Yep always, but that’s more difficult…requires character, discipline and respect.
I hear Facebook is nice this time of year. If you’re looking for a safe space then that’s the place for you.

No, you get real. You don’t attract people who want an honest debate when stupid insults are the norm. Be a little raw, but don’t overdo it.

True, and I would like to see more bloggers who want an honest debate and that won’t happen
as long as this stuff continues. I realize that most of it is from people who only know how to insult
and not how to exchange views, and it makes them look stupid and uninformed.

Yeah! You get real! Maybe start by practicing what you preach by not trying to derail threads with your TDS as you already put people on the defensive with that kind of bullshit and there is nothing honest about that! So stop bitching like a little baby snowflake about hurt feelings! This is the internet, if you can’t hack it then too bad! Maybe the Huffpost is more your flavour!

Honest debate my ass
Sorry people who suffer from TDS for whatever reason cannot have an honest debate
Here is the thing, with most of us right wingers/conservatives we dont get “triggered” because you leftist say bad things about Trump, what annoys us is when you spread propoganda and bullshit and expect us to accept them as fact
Eg. one professor said a negative thing about Trump’s grade and him being the dumbest student he has ever had?
That is B.S. because if Trump was the dumbest student he ever had and Trump became A billionaire and his other gifted students didnt? what does that indicate?
You post that Trump went bankrupt and I had to remind you that Trump personally didnt go bankrupt his companies did, and they restructured not shut down
BIg difference, but you are not honest or capable of reading actual facts
And last you claim we insult yet you insult and instead of admitting it, you made up the excuse of just “repeating what others said about Trump”
Clue… An Insult is an insult whether it comes out of your mouth or you’re repeating what others said
If you want an honest debate many on here will debate you, you want to spread propaganda because of your bias then expect push back
Get it now

Well, cat is out of the bag, huh?
No one came to your rescue after pleading victim.
So what do you do? Start throwing insults. Doesn’t really take too long for people like you to show your true colors. It is really fun to wait you out while you dig your own grave 
We have two safe places here the rabbit hole and the gentlemen’s club
What is the rabbit hole?
The rabbit hole is a safe place and you are a member of it with all due respect
