one thing that has not changed over the years i have been coming here is the way posts are pulled apart, examined from every conceivable angle, whether that angle is relevant or not, judged, opinions given as fact, rules quoted and interpreted to suit the agenda of the quoter, the validity of the post questioned based on the interpretation of the rules and on and on and on it goes....
that to me is not discussion, its nitpicking in an effort to be right no matter what.
DISCLAIMER: MODS THIS POST IS NOT AN INTERPERSONAL DISPUTE NOR IS IT AIMED AT ANY ONE POSTER.
IT IS SIMPLY MY OPINION BASED ON MY OBSERVATIONS.

Not sure what you are on about. Yes, I & everybody else have a right to post topics/contribute to topics on various issues.
But NOBODY has the right to tell other people that they should not be discussing certain topics provided it is withing this Forum's guidelines.
I disagree. Anybody has the right to tell you not to post certain topics.
You have the right to tell them to get lost, you'll post what you like, as long as it's within this Forum's guidlines.
If there are several political topics in one time that is because there are many different political subjects that can be discussed.
And as TA lurches from one embarrassment to another, and makes some very dangerous changes, people will be discussing them, like it or not.
