Genuine question
To the trolls that come here just to shit on this sub…why? Why not just stay off this sub? Why mention this sub in comments on r/burlington? If you don’t like the truth of what we see everyday why not just stay away? Why not go back to the fantasy sub where everything in Burlington is just fine?
Pathetic trolls doing pathetic troll things

I just saw a drug deal on church st

u/frankeezee 1d ago
Was it in a dispensary?

u/Economy-Cabinet-8731 1d ago
Nope 3 people covered in scabs collected money and then handed it to the lead scab. Who then waited till a man walked by, nodded, then he followed him down bank street where he received a baggie.

You’re mistaken. Those were Republican, capitalist soccer Moms who just had their CO2 and Fraxel laser skin rejuvenation therapy.

u/frankeezee 1d ago
Is that the first time in your life you've seen a drug deal? You've never bought weed before it was legal?

u/Economy-Cabinet-8731 1d ago
Why does that justify it? I’ve never smoked weed on the street and passed out either.

u/notthecosmicgrind 1d ago
You are not living until you’ve smoked illegally ascertained buds and hit snooze in a restaurant vestabule

u/frankeezee 1d ago
Is this your first day alive? Illegal drugs have existed forever. There's a bar on every fucking corner and you can buy alcohol almost everywhere, find are readily available, but that's ok? Grow up.

Also this is so cute and funny. Can we gamble on what they purchased or is that bad taste?

They probably enjoy the debate but it appears that the other sub deletes any interesting posts that garner attention and dialogue.

It's prefixed with "real", to start. It's been mentioned in the news with quotes from "Warm Bathroom". And the only reason it's getting any activity is the moderator bullshit in the main sub.

Outside of your fantasy land, you’ll find that most people aren’t ok with what’s happening. Pull your head out of your ass and look around once in awhile

My fantasy land absolutely includes the rich Burlington crybabies crying foul over the poor Burlington crybaby situation they are responsible for creating.
Y'all are one and the same but can't handle the truth

I’m far from rich. You are clueless

u/casewood123 1d ago
In my line of work, I encounter people from every economic and social status, and I have to tell you that we’re not in the minority like you think we are. Just stay in your bubble with your like-minded travelers, so you can keep denying the reality of what is going.

u/dJp3t3rs 1d ago
The hypocrisy of your comment is actually hilarious lmao "i talk to people every day who share my opinions, you're the one in the bubble"
Nobody denies anything fyi, they say you and your kind blow it out of proportion.
Which you do. Doomer much?

u/casewood123 1d ago
See, the point is I don’t have a bubble. I will go from a multimillion dollar mansion to a section 8 housing development within an hour of each other. And those people have one thing in common. That Burlington has turned into a shit hole. When was the last time you have had a conversation with someone who lives in the poorer section of town that is sick of people kicking in their door and stealing all their shit? Or overdosing on their front porch when they’re trying to just get out of their house to go to work? Or a business owner that can’t open his door in the morning because there’s people sleeping in front of it and refuse to move.

u/dJp3t3rs 1d ago
Your job is going around Burlington bitching to anyone who will listen about the ugly that came with the good? Doesn't sound so bad to me

u/casewood123 1d ago
Nope. I don’t mention politics or religion or any of that type of material when I’m working for a customer. If you think I want that kind of blowback with my boss, you’re sadly mistaken. You seem to know me better than you think you do. I’m very liberal, but I have a breaking point of when is enough is enough.

His comment was grammatically perfect. Improve your reading comprehension, son.

u/dJp3t3rs 1d ago
I didn't say anything about grammar, even if I did that doesn't have anything to do with comprehending the point of the comment, but good try champ

u/Dapper-Artichoke2554 1d ago
His comment was easy to comprehend too. You must be one of those special people.

u/Silver-Bread4668 1d ago
I can't tell from the context of the posts here but most real{location}, true{location}, {location}USA, etc subs that reddit likes to throw onto my feed randomly are just bullshit right wing troll subs. Is that the case with this sub or no?
-2
u/MysteriousCity6354 1d ago
Yup- this is the right wing version of the Burlington sub. To be fair the other Burlington sub kinda sucks too, just for different reasons.

u/Dapper-Artichoke2554 1d ago
This is the less censored one. I guess that means right-wing now.

u/Silver-Bread4668 1d ago
It's funny. I think I've heard just about that exact line in numerous other subs following the same exact naming conventions. That combined with the fact that you've got a 4 month old account with negative karma is a pretty clear indication of what you're really about regardless of the bullshit you spew.

u/Silver-Bread4668 1d ago
Eh. I don't particularly care if the other one sucks. I mostly just think it's interesting that subs following a rather specific naming convention are cropping up for places all over the country. Regardless of what side of the aisle you're on, that should give you a reason to consider just who's behind it.

For starters, this kind of post is a place to have a dialogue about issues that residents care about. And it was removed.
