There is a huge amount of community difference between saying "Derp Derp", and saying "Obama is re-instituting slavery". Do you agree?

Yes, I do. There is a difference. First statement is controversial, but deserves discussion. What Obama is doing is not re-instituting slavery, of course, but there is some trend to limit people freedom, as usual during the government expansion periods, and this cartoon reminds about that in a way, traditonal for this genre. It's a legitimate thing. "Derp Derp", on the other hand, doesn't contain anything. The only thing the comment like this can demonstrate is that commenter is too stupid to find better arguments.

That's why I have to decline your invitation to post "derp derp" comments. I prefer to express myself on a different level, although I have to admit that I was tempted to do something like this several times.

Hope you will not be biased in being a bit more active. I kind of voted for you.
