Gosh I disagree with you Mad there? The site needs alternative points of view, thats how you get a good discussion going and Kangal is central to that. But also there always people reading in the wings these sites, and if they see different points of view getting a fair hearing they will be happy to join in, thats why its even more important to cherish alternative voices. We don't want just an echo chamber?
I am sorry Kangal that I cannot do anything about anybody randomly deleting your posts, except to say that of course I am against it. If it was possible to put Fishalt and wolf on ignore it might work, but I really don't know.
Can I just address another point, nearly everybody here seems to assume that because Kangal articulates the media/establishment line on most issues, which, and I am genuinely not trying to be insulting, would be a fair enough statement, that ipso facto he is a troll. I have no crystal ball which tells me one way or the other but if you go out into modern Ireland and debate politics with ordinary people, you will be stunned how many of them, clearly not trolls, think like Kangal does.
So we need to engage with people like that, hopefully persuade them differently on at least some matters of importance where I think they are flat out wrong, but not dismiss people out of hand with insults etc? Thats no way to proceed in my view....
