i do, but i don't feel the need to ignore this thread so i don't. i also feel the need to try to coax less-progressive people into moving on and being slightly evolved in displaying self-control and personal choice.
last time threads like this started it ended in a few people losing accounts and being IP blocked for a while. understandably. they were at fault.
the problem and irony is that people wind each other up and support the attitude that on a public (i reinforce public) forum, freedom of speech is something only they can have. only they. odd really.
public forums are open to all. free accounts for anyone. therefore anyone has the right to say whatever they want. true or false, real or made up.
to be honest people like marketmaker/hedge/whatever are actually taking the piss, probably to wind people like yourself up, to see what happens. instead of seeing this you simply go knee-jerk and hop on the offensive. if they aren't taking the piss then who cares, ignore them.
you want freedoms to say what you like then support that right for all or none. especially when the comments are not racist, homophobic nor sexist. simply neocon crap which, in the current state of economy become more hilarious in their falsehood.
still, maybe you're right. maybe we shouldn't grow up and learn to ignore things on a public forum that irritate. maybe we can ask QBN to filter everything so we only get opinions and views we already agree so as to support our fragile ego.
what would i know obviously.
