My main beef with Thatcher is her support for Pinochet.

..you guys are so sensitive - please get over the record comment...I'll withdraw it if you like...it wasn't that big a deal , was it?

Back to the politics, and I am not keeping to my word on not posting further, but, I have to end with...
This forum, politically, is largely a 1-dimensional, lefty love-in...anyone with a slightly opposing view gets treated as an absolute threat..it's hilarious to a point, then becomes really predictable and stiffling.
I appreciate, this may be provoke further anger, but it is how I feel.

If I was going to continue, I would post a "Who's prepared to own up to be a Tory HH'er" topic - I think it would be interesting, maybe someone else will do it now? Doubt it.

Anyway...I'll buy u a drink too, if we ever meet - honestly..I am human!

You say that like its either surprising, or a bad thing. I'm sure if you posted pro marxist arguments on the Stormfront forum (a neo nazi forum) you'll get equal amounts of grief (actually you'ld get death threats from them, I know, I've done it for giggles in the past) So what ?

Every online political forum, in fact every forum, has it's own group think.

Seriously, How on earth do you expect this particular forum, considering what it's supposed to be for (read the u-know pages ever ?), and it's relationship to Julian Cope, to be anything other than it is ? Do you actually expect it to attract pro royalist tories ? You're being just a tad a tad silly. Sure, people are going to argue with you, either deal with it and argue back or leave. Accusing a forum of being closed minded is usually what closed minded people say. Also, as said, duh... are you actually surprised you got the responses you did ? Offended by what someone says to you on an online forum ? Ha, really ?

A tory, here ? Seriously ? There are plenty of other places you could discuss your particular flavours of indignation and apologism. Thats the point isn't it though, would you be happier there ? I mean wtf do you want us to do for you ? Agree with you when we don't ? Or maybe, just not reply to you ? We need to know the answers, in order to further our obviously shallow understanding of Political Science.

In short, learn to debate, or post somewhere where you'll get a sympathetic ear and don't actually have to debate.

Edit : And to clarify, I'm not a lefty...erm I think.. well I definitely accept that the majority of old left ideas and doctrine do not function in this first world. I'm a post structuralist anarchist me.

No, thats not what I'm saying at all. Learn to read.

Edit : However, if you seriously think an entire forum disagrees with you then maybe it is time to stop posting there.

The rudeness of that reply tells me all i need to know about you.

If an entire forum disagrees with you, argue your point and then shut up. If you are bullying someone with the hope that they will leave your forum for not agreeing with you, you don't have that much faith in your beliefs.
if you have to resort to name calling and put downs because someone doesn't agree with your point of view, you do not have much faith in your point of view.
if you can not listen to some one who disagrees with your world view, you aint got much of a world view.

learn to communicate properly.

I did, you should do the same, you're initial response of "if you don't agree with us, fuck off? is that REALLY what you are saying?" is a tad rude isn't it eh ? Especially considering that what I said is basically the same as..

As said, learn to read. At no point have I resorted to name calling (for a change), and so what if someone has ? To paraphrase, and to agree with you, if someone does that to you then grow a pair and move on or argue back. Fucking hell Pooley can you really not understand me. Wait for the red mist to clear and try and read what I said again.

And fucking hell, this is one of the weakest political forums on the net, who cares what anyone says here, you can predict the groupthink here so easily. Have you ever been to another forum discussing politics ever ? I suggest you try it. Hell, I suggest you try sensible debating, and stop constructing irrelevant strawmen and 'woe to the posters and their entrenched opinions' wankiness that you're doing.. I mean Geoffrey gave as good as he got, so ?

Anyone who resorts to talking about forum decorum and bitching about cliques has absolutely no debating skills, at all. This is the internet, its not important, and this forum has no moderation, so erm.. yeah.. wtf. It's pointless to say play nice here, and why the hell should anyone play nice when discussing things online, especialy racism where the rage relating to the subject is close to the surface for everyone here.

As for 'knowing someone' by their posts online, er.. no.. If you think that I in anyway reflect my posts, or anyone else reflects theirs, then sorry, you really shouldn't be reading forums at all tbh. There is a level of abstraction between person/idea and posting that you definitely need to understand.
