Iccy IS on the left.
Being left and being whiny are two different things
TBF, if you don't know what left and right is, the latter is not too difficult for us ...Yorick wrote: Thu Mar 30, 2023 9:23 amI have no idea what left or right means. And have no desire to learn.
And mods shouldn't abuse their status by being know-it-all.
Each day that's becoming ever more apparent.Potter wrote: Thu Mar 30, 2023 7:48 amI know.
The last time you got like this I stayed off the forum for a couple of weeks to see if it would carry on without me being any part of it, it did carry on and you gave two other people temporary bans.
Maybe make it clear it's a left wing moaning platform and it won't get any moderation, then leave them to it and I'll stay away, because at the moment some people are under the impression that both sides are allowed to make their points.
Since Yorick packed it in the only moderator that comes close to saying anything about the far left view is Moofo and he's centre left living in Brighton![]()

All it is now is a free-for-all to post left wing angst and then anyone not on that side of the fence is going to go after it.
I rarely agree with Ant on anything, but all he does is point out that people post angst with no logical argument behind it, we've had some pretty spectacular clashes over the years but I'd take ten of him all day long rather than one person who just regurgitates Twitter angst with no logic.
In fact Ant would probably make a good mod in that section - although he'd probably ban me![]()
I would never ban anyone. I'm open to free speech and discussion. In fact, I love getting into a meaty discussion and picking at the flaws of people's argument and seeing the tantrum and Frank Spencer trip ups which happen as a result of me asking questions which they simply have no ability to answer.Potter wrote: Thu Mar 30, 2023 4:21 am If you don't want political arguments then close that section, it's so simple.

We have a new series called Gotham Nights here on the gay agenda network. Robin is now a black female, didn't watch long enough to find out if she plays for the boys team though.mangocrazy wrote: Thu Mar 30, 2023 1:28 pm Nah, Ant is Robin to Potter's Batman. Comedy Batman, of course.
A mod could solve that question at a stroke by comparing login IP addresses.
Ant as a black female - that could work. Potter is very exercised by racism, real or imagined...ZRX61 wrote: Thu Mar 30, 2023 3:48 pmWe have a new series called Gotham Nights here on the gay agenda network.

It's not that easy to tell. Stalin and Hitler had a similar attitude to anyone who questioned their ideas. At the extreme left and right bend around and become one. Tyrany.

I think Moofo might have been thinking slightly more basic on left and rightCousin Jack wrote: Thu Mar 30, 2023 4:11 pmIt's not that easy to tell. Stalin and Hitler had a similar attitude to anyone who questioned their ideas. At the extreme left and right bend around and become one. Tyrany.

If you make a statement as a fact, then when asked a question have no ability to with any fact at all back up what you said, your inability to discuss and debate isn't someone else's responsibility. You can't duck your responsibility under the disguise that the person challenging you is a troll. Imagine that as a defence to every question one cannot or doesn't want to answer.Greenman wrote: Thu Mar 30, 2023 6:03 pmWhich quite honestly makes you a troll, end of conversation.Ant wrote: Thu Mar 30, 2023 1:09 pmI would never ban anyone.

I hate wind up people, they are normally those that have not met anyone that will give them a good hiding for goading people with temper/mental health issues into a reaction, keyboard warriors - its a major bug bare of mine.
I won't use the C word!

No need to be careful who is questioned, it's a forum, anyone can engage in conversation with anyone.
