47th President of the United States

I've been banned for unacceptable conduct? When did this occur? I don't bother commenting at all on the 45/46 threads because it's so utterly pointless, as it's become so here. Responses such as yours merely reinforce that.

"your ilk"

Spell it out, there's a splendid chap. What have I done that's worthy of banning on the other threads, or being associated with those who supposedly have?

While Biden is infinitely preferable to Trump, he's still an old fool in some respects.
Israel has killed 30,000+ Palestinians and just shot up an aid convoy:

Biden ticks them off for "not doing enough to protect civilians and aid workers" as if it's not Israeli forces doing the killing.
While still shipping them truckloads of arms.

If he pisses off the younger voters and loses to Trump, its all his own fault.

And yes, I know Trump would be worse for Palestine, but some democrat voters will definitely stay home over this.
He'd better hope it's all over by september at the latest.

This is where Biden’s age is showing.

He's been a supporter of Israel forever, and still seems to think of them as the plucky underdog facing the threat of imminent annihilation.
Think Suez, six day war, Yom Kippur war, etc.

He hasn't adjuted to the fact that Israel nowadays is a nuclear power with massive arms superiority that has no real threat of military defeat.

Just ignore them and they’ll go back to the usual thread.

"When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser."

More specifically, what you really mean is once you have created an echo chamber and either managed to get anyone you disagree with banned, or resorted to bullying anyone with a differing opinion out from participating.

"If you’re afraid of wolves, don’t go to the woods."

You’d hope they would run their dreaded script (the irony!) with us all named on it


Anyway, veering back to the title of the thread… I can’t wait for another term of Biden, hopefully with more involvement from AOC! One to watch for the future.

It's not actually accurate cynic, the way the Trump thread worked is that Byker posted stuff whilst attack dogs verbally abused and posted caricatures of people posting opposing opinions. I know this as I was a victim of it.

Some of these posters have been now been perm. banned entirely from the forum, not just the thread, some not, the offensive posts got (mostly) wiped and it looks like nothing occurred whilst others turned a blind eye.

paul and byker would have seen the posts and they will know I am not lying but they won't want to upset the applecart.

it's a nightmare to moderate and the current status quo seems to be working better but lets not throw stones in glass houses.

People who have an opinion contrary to the prevailing orthodoxy. Don't bother posting on the 45 thread unless you endorse the endless negative propaganda posted by the usual suspects, or on the 46 thread unless you despise Trump and agree Biden is definitely the bestest prez evAr.

The same names pop up here and, hey whaddayaknow, the same orthodoxy prevails. Hence why I don't bother posting on the 45 or 46 threads, and generally don't bother here. I was rather hoping this thread wouldn't have become a reheated stramash of the worst aspects of 45/46, but here we are.

Meanwhile, I and my ilk, and people like you, should just pop off with our inconvenient opinions, and leave them to their echo chamber.
