As there is a long running political thread on here why then do the proponents on that thread then start multiple threads and go into other political threads that are of the opostite view to their own political leanings.
eg: the global warming issue and the illegal immigrant issue which have been done to death.
Could it be that the "dedicated" political thread doesn't have enough diversity of thought? no real debate of issues? and is just a fora for like minded to agree with each other?.
A thread that only agrees with the op is OK, if that's the intention, but then why do they go the mob rule on other political threads that end up ruined becuse they go on the attack and it decends into chaos? is that the intention? to shut down any other political thought that does not gell with their own.
It's all the cut and thrust of debate. Some people get emotional about issues they are drawn to. We should welcome the chance to debate. Sure it goes over the top now and then but that's the human nature.
Yes but there's no "cut and thrust" on that long running political thread except for one dissenter who is howled down every time he points out a fact, the real facts being ignored, no diversity of thought or debate like a kudo klub of like minded mindless.
