Why do users in the politics section use spin when answering questions?

The Invisible Hand/Illuminati asked:


I know the media is full of spin and crap that favors one side or the other. But when I ask for a logical answer in the politics section I get alot of users who just use spin and crap in formulating an answer. I like to get answers with minimal bias but it appears many people just can’t provide a logical, down to earth, without spin type of answer. WHY???!!

Why can individuals think independently with logic without resorting to spin in the politics section?

Please provide your insight to this. Thank you for your time and answers.

      You are requesting a silk purse, when you have but pigs’ ears before you.

      This is not a serious political forum. It is not a serious format. If you are expecting serious political comment you will continually be disappointed.

      For the mainstream it is all about the spin logic be damned.

      It is for entertainment only, not for education. Some of us get a giggle out of some of you and like to answer in a way that we think will get your goat.

      it is easier to to sling mud, propagate other people’s half truths and or lies than to think up their own ideas.
