And the 04 election WAS a lot more informed. Well, moreso the severity of stupid discussions were limited to a much much much smaller audience.

sure. but just because the discussions were for a smaller audience doesn't mean they weren't stupid.

i remember the political debates during the GWB/kerry era. while they may have been slightly less... hysterical and polarized than the present-day political debates, 99% of it was still a bunch of people yelling at each other who 1) weren't experts on whatever they were debating, 2) hadn't read books on whatever they were debating, and 3) were absolutely convinced that they were right about whatever they were debating. how is that not "casual"?
