Enough is enough 12:20 - Apr 30 with 7352 views | Professor | 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.

Enough is enough on 12:40 - Apr 30 with 3823 views | Dr_Parnassus | Have I missed a thread on here? I'm still yet to see a racist, homophobic or misogynistic comment in all my years on here. Certainly nothing promoting violence and anti-semitism. Where have you seen these kinds of comments out of curiosity? Doesn't matter which side of the political divide you sit, if those sorts of comments are pointed out then everyone will be against it and am sure Keith will act appropriately. But you should debate your point with whoever you are referring to, having a difference of political opinion isn't a reason to stop posting. Stand your ground and give your views.

I got all manner of filth aimed at me yesterday. A vindictive,personal attack by garyjack backed up by lifelonglifey. It is the old site reincarnated alright. How can anyone be a member of the Labour party yet be objective about what is right wing or not. Is right wing evil and if so who says so? The only cabal i left wing and it is obvious.It is so because that which pertains to socialism will always be pre eminent on here.Those not having that are hammered,like Kerouac who now seems to be the Devil . Winston' use of specimen is typical of a deeply cynical man with a history of arrogant bile. He aims to carry on the old agenda of the previous ite which is why he refers to me as perchy.You can be guaranteed that this is sinister . And Gary.

Seconded. Prof, your patience when challenged with some pretty outlandish claims in your field of experience has been fantastic. In regard to barmy threads, I think the line between stimulating debate and being antagonistic has been missed by some. I think Keith has managed this as well as he could. At the end of the day it’s an Internet forum. Nobody ‘wins’. That’s not the way it works. Even when facts are presented it’s virtually impossible in most cases to provide a causal link, and so it continues. Nothing ever gets solved on an Internet forum. FWIW I may disagree on things with many on here, but it wouldn’t stop me going for a beer with anyone. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I really can’t figure it out. I just had a look at the posts made today and can’t find anything that has triggered it. Absolutely baffled. I wanted to make sure it wasn’t something I had missed and not “called out” on a thread. But haven’t been able to locate anything that even comes close to anything described. It’s a shame though because broad accusations like this can damage a website. I’m sure the OP hasn’t done it intentionally, but at this stage I think specific examples do need to be singled out. I would guess there has been some miscommunication somewhere along the line and the OP has misinterpreted someone. I can’t imagine anyone on here saying such things unchallenged. | ![](/images/avatars/27408.gif) |

So true. They can give it out in spades , but cry like little babies and make up groundless, false accusations if challenged or someone dares to have an opposite view. It’s the left wing all over.they don’t like it up em. The trouble with people like pretentious prof is that he’s surrounded by lefties in the propaganda camp he works in and hates it and can’t handle the fact others outside his camp have other political views from his far left agenda. I respect his right to have his opinion maybe he should respect others to have theirs instead of acting like a spoilt child. [Post edited 30 Apr 2021 15:12]

"Governments across the World tend to be on the 'right' of the political spectrum, the 'right' to maintain their dominance label some news outlets that might criticise them as left wing, it's a game by the right wing and populations have fallen for it, the right wing is totally dominant across the World, even China and Russia are capitalist countries these days."

Being on the right is fine though. Some of the most sensible people on the planet are centre or right leaning. I wasn’t concerned about that. I was concerned about the accusations in the OP.

Never criticised American police officers as they seem to be in a no win situation especially when every disturbance or stop they attend has the potential to involve firearms.
