I was one of those who complained to Keith, not about a specific post but due too the consistent posting of conspiracy theories and material which is sailing very close to the wind in terms of extreme right wing politics. I would equally complain if this were extreme left-wing promoting violence, anti-semitism etc.
I am sick of misogyny, xenophobia, thinly veiled racism and name calling. There is a clear right-wing cabal, who circle with material of some legitimate and some dubious sources-including some downright lies. We are all entitled to an opinion, but it clearly laughable to suggest there is a left-wing cabal. There are a few 'true' left wingers on here with strong convictions in their beliefs, but most of are us sit in a spectrum between the politics of Thatcherism and moderate socialism. Yet to express this view makes one a left, marxist, bullshitter and the other names tossed my way in recent months. Funny really as someone who believes in private enterprise and capitalism, albeit tempered with equality of opportunity. I am a Labour Party member, though left for a period under Corbyn's leadership as I considered this beyond my line of acceptability-so, yes I guess I site somewhere around the Blair/Brown degree of 'socialism'-or a Red Tory. I support the police, but equally will criticise where they blunder. That's how we can help improve policing. I'm not particularly 'woke' but dislike racism, homophobia and sexism. I equally have issues with over use of positive discrimination. Like all of us I have contradictions.
Life is too short and precious to carry on arguing with those so far down a rabbit hole that the sunlight of humanity no longer reaches them. So thanks to those who have made my laugh, think and open up new discoveries-not exhaustively but Cattulus, Scotia, the late Fiery Jack, Gwyn, Chad, Joe Bradshaw, Lisa and Lohengrin-it's been a pleasure. Pikey-keep it up, your posts make me smile and Felixtowe-thanks for your commitment to updating the vaccine data.
Keith-good luck and thanks for your work on here the last year.

He's a better President than Biden, that's for sure. I'm not picking on Joe, but I have seen tons of videos the last week or so, Biden is very confused.
Personally I can't see him lasting this year in office, somebody else will take over. | |

It's well known Trump has not agitated any wars, unlike Biden spoiling for for fights all over. | |

3 pages in and still it seems nobody any the wiser what this is all about?
I hope people see the dangers of these sorts of smears now. They aren’t good.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but this seems to be about the fact that some people are on the right,
some people are on the left... but the OP wants everyone to be on the left or he won’t post anymore?
Is it really boiling down to that? | |

That is exactly what it is. Attention seeking at its finest!
Shame really as most of the time the op will debate In a constructive manner.
It’s actually quite embarrassing how many fully grown men behave these days if they are not Agreed with or if they don’t get their own way. (Usually the person they disagree with getting banned or they stop posting)
Part of the reason the world is In Such a mess.
Some on here need to grow pair
If You don’t agree with someone else’s god given right to an opinion you have 2 choices
1 debate and respond
2 ignore and move on
It really is that simple | |

All 70 million who voted for Trump think the election was rigged? | |

Almost as ridiculous as the suggestion 70m Republican voters are racist and idiots...
I would say part of why America is in the mess it is because the mainstream don't want to understand or face up to the reasons why half of the country voted Trump.
4 years ago they tried to push the race card, then blamed it on a Russian rigged election to hide from the fact they then had to follow through and call half the country the names they did pre election.
This time round there was no conspiracy to blame, just had to face the fact that half the country despises the identity politics, the cancel culture, the professionally offended and freedom suppressing that the Democrats espouse. | |

Unfortunately it seems that the right wing cabal on here has done for the Professor, seems like their conspiracy theories and far right views were too much for the man of science.
I hope he comes back in full capacity, if not then I hope he comes back to the footie forum as has been suggested, or even comeback and change his username in case the right wing nut jobs gang up and attack him.
Sad to see that a once proud Welsh club with Welsh traits is now overrun by right wing, loyalist, conspiracy theory nut jobs when the fan base used to be the complete opposite, they will be flying union jack's next, oh hmm. | |

It could be
Left is good
Right is bad.
That is a clear mantra on thi site.
Some,like me, just wont have it as I won't be pigeonholed.
If some want to be classed left/right,good or vile,then its their problem.
Get a grip people as this site is suffering. | |

Hard to know where to start Gloss,isnt it,reading tramp.
Cabal is not an apposite word in this context anyway as the "clique" is in no way "secret".
Stump ,whoever he is,has called this right. I try to provoke and stimulate opinion which lay dormant mainly as too many are scared to ay the truth. For my pain,people like Roger lifey describe me as a "creature"-
ie,Many are not @rsed about learning Welsh,more concerned about their kids futures.
Labour does NOT represent the "workers"
Not ALL Tories are Vile.A word used gratuitously and unmoderated to boot.
Not all are left or right.Most don't give a ratsarse
And football...Jesus H. Not all want statues erected for the likes of super Wayne and Nauts and not all love Woody as a goalkeeper.
Any who plays or manages or owns my team is fair game for criticism,slagging off or verbal slaughtering. If racism is kept out of the critique then jut what is the problem.
Clearly ,there is a need for some on here to be seen as Right (correct) and those considered "wrong" to be pilloried. | |

Yep, ''cabal'' suggests a private and insular view shared by a small group of people.
I don't think common sense is limited, private or insular.
The views shared on here that are clumsily called ''right wing'' are often the views held by most sensible people on the planet I would have thought. Are they not?
I can't think of too many people that want to defund the police, find racism in everything and pretend they see a whole host of offensive nonsense when it doesn't exist. That ironically tends to be a cabal of people usually found on the internet.
I would like to think there aren't actually that many in real life. Most people seem quite sick of this behavior. | |

Do you live in some alternate universe, or just the mass media one?
Trump is only modern US President not to involve America in a war and bring their Troops home.
Biden and the Democrats have always been the party of War Mongers. | | | |

Im not so sure wasn't it a republican that took the US into a disastrous war in middle East | | | |

Trump is the only President in many people's lifetime not to send troops to a new conflict. Doesn't matter about the Republican before him. | |

What conflicts or issues were there during Trumps time?
You could argue him withdrawing troops was likely to cause future problems. His America was becoming insular yet at the same time his rhetoric was ripping the USA apart.
Then there's Russia, always a challenge,

I notice you have again commented about what you think "most sensible people" believe politicaly. That is juts your opinion. There are plenty of sensible people who aren't right wing, they may be laef or firmly in the centre but they are there. | |
