He is making exactly the same whinge on PR.
For a serial trolling twat to complain about being banned is a bit comical Ali.

People believe that being closed minded and stubborn is better than being open minded and flexible. Winning arguments is seen as more important than winning people over.

I’ve always been polite to you, but I can’t help it if you are unable to understand my posts, which is why I have stopped answering you.

Oversight from whom?
Who elected you spokesperson for the LGBT community? your views are subjective to you, yet you accuse another poster of being homophobic simply because they don't agree with your narrative, that does not sit well with me at all.
You cannot enforce diversity, you cannot shut down free speech simply because you disagree with what is being said. If in the end you cannot come to terms with that and how things are run here, you are free to leave anytime.
So being pro LGBT is shutting down free speech - is that what you are actually saying?
Id hire a competent trans person for a job, id use any pronoun they asked me to use. Absolutely no problem at all about anyones sexual proclivities. Its great. I wont agree we need 15 types of toilets so Sam Smith can take his fancy from week to week , nor will agree to children being given hormone therapy to transition when they have no autonomy on the issue. You seem to treat it like like its completely uncontestable on every level from who you sleep with to what can we joke about . I say no, there are shades of grey, nuance and items open to debate.
And there I was, thinking I had made it very easy for Rinkals to see the silliness of his repeated arguments about Trump vs Biden, where he continually tries to imply that someone MUST be a Trump supporter if they think Biden is the worse of the two. But nope, it was too taxing for him.JM2K6 wrote: Mon Sep 07, 2020 2:46 pm Fangle, while I don't disagree with your overall opinion on Rinkals' posting, in this case it did seem like you jumped in while Rinkals was having that argument and may have taken the response the wrong way.

I was talking about Biden being unfavourably compared to Trump and Fatcat suggested that it is like comparing Peter Sutcliffe to Hitler.JM2K6 wrote: Mon Sep 07, 2020 2:46 pm Fangle, while I don't disagree with your overall opinion on Rinkals' posting, in this case it did seem like you jumped in while Rinkals was having that argument and may have taken the response the wrong way.

As Hitler is not known for being a long distance lorry driver, I assumed that reference was being made to them both being mass murderers.
Hence, I said that any discussion on whether Biden is a mass murderer should be taken to the Trump thread.
Which precipitated the opprobrium.
I do have issue with Fangle on this matter, though, because he claims not to be a Trump supporter, but feels that Biden is worse. Or just as bad. Or something.
I cannot see how you can claim not to support Trump, yet refuse to vote for Biden; in all practicality your withholding your vote is essentially enabling the incumbent.
As I’ve said, I can’t help your lack of understanding.

Yes.

People seem broadly more aggressive on the internet. From parents emailing schools to the toxic mess that is twitter. I recall reading that the brain processes information from screen differently to real life. I have often wondered if there is a root connected cause that links internet aggression and say road rage. I mean I've seen plenty of calm, chilled out people get loud and pissed when driving their cars.Hugo wrote: Sun Sep 06, 2020 11:44 pmThis is a major problem on the internet imo.Steve wrote: Sun Sep 06, 2020 11:15 am No one seems to enter into a conversation in good faith willing to have their mind changed.

Yesterday’s Semi final match thread on PR had twice as many shitfight posts as anything to do with the actual rugby.
