Just lock it.

Look it's your show but unless you actually wanted an argument then why did you let it run in the first place? It was only started to cause an argument. A stupid provocative title like "Is Bozo Bankrupt" should have been deleted before it even got started.

Come on chaps, this one is a spectacular example of stupidity, a mental woman with an alpaca makes the news by doing something stupid and one of the usual suspects start a left wing argument about it, then it gets all angsty and Moth gets both barrels, whereas the bloke that started the silly argument is probably sat back laughing and very satisfied with himself, because that's exactly what he wanted. He did it to start a fight.

These anti-government arguments are started by the same people with a chip on their shoulder and always hovered over and liked by the same people with a chip on their shoulder. It is done on purpose to provoke this exact reaction.

This section hasn't turned out so bad, the covid and topical stuff is mostly good info and the odd political poke is mainly tongue-in-cheek, but the racist stuff and the left-wing argument starting has to go.
The thread was about Bojo's personal finances, not left or right wing. In fact, you were the first poster to bring the left/right argument into the thread and pretty much every post you have made since has contained a reference to left/left-wing along with a little bit of a dig at those whose political alignment are to the left.
You seem to enjoy throwing a lighted match into the dry grass then moaning like fuck that the fire brigade were late in putting out the fire :hmmm:

And by posting again you have bumped it up the board. Just ignoring it would have helped the thread's demise.
Even bland can be a type of character :wave:

Apparently calling the Prime Minister “Bozo” and putting up a pathetic childish thread called “Is Bozo bankrupt” isn’t a politically left motivated thing.
And I’m the one throwing lighted matches? You silly sod.
Who gives a fuck about a bit of childish name calling of a politician. Seriously, how old are you ffs? I happen to like Boris, he's a bit of a clown but he's (now) doing a better job than I expected. But I really couldn't give a shit if people want to make up silly names for him, or any other politician for that matter.

Ah, and there you go again trying to divide people into left and right. I couldn't care less about Boris's personal finances, which is why, up until your whining about moderation post, I didn't post on the thread. Maybe you should do the same, instead of whining about it because you don't like the content, and let the mods do their job as they see fit?

You do seem to call everything you don't agree with 'leftist' and / or 'moaning'.

Some of you have short, and selective, memories. The slating of the likes of Corbyn and Abbott during the last election was pretty strong and not in the least 'fair' let alone true. Some of it was by me, by the way, as I'm no huge fan of them - but let's not pretend that all of you who are so obviously right-handed are also even-handed because that's just total bollocks.

Well, what was a reasonable thread has yet again turned in to navel gazing angst with the usual suspects adding nothing but derailments to the discussion. FFS.

I just distrust politicians, left, right and centre. Lying bastards every one.

I suspect that's as let's be honest, it really wasn't that interesting, was it?

Having said that, there is othing to stop you from carrying on with reasonable posts to add to it though, or have I missed something?

Let's put that strawman to bed, it's weak, but let's close it anyway - I'm not whining about moderation, I think Weeksy and his Mods are doing a stellar job, I was offering a viewpoint that if these whiny threads are pissing him off then lock them.

Why don't you start an equally stupid right-wing thread called "Non white immigrants are stealing our jobs" and see how equally critical I am of right-wing dickheads as well.

Or discuss politics sensibly.
I'll just follow.
...with your finger, whilst moving your lips as you read, judging by the 4 edits it took to pen that :D
