Appreciate you saying that your post was not but other posters have clearly think it was which they see as a green light to troll me .Part of the problem is that you always assume it's about YOU.
That entire thread is a binfire, utterly worthless and there are a lot of NSC users who don't want that across the board. People - not specifcally you - have tried to sneak it in from everything from the Labour Meltdown to the riots to Tommy to personal digs and argument continuation on non-political threads and I know both myself and at least one other mod have had enough of it.
And it’s completely understandable. So have I as you well know from previous PMs - I don’t engage with anyone on ‘that thread’ anymore and have pulled up one particular poster for doing exactly what you say, ‘trying to sneak it into every thread’ and was subsequently trolled by him too for my election support of SKS on a completely unrelated thread.
Unfortunately for me, because it has somehow become an NSC trope that links me to that discussion, what most people don’t realise, because they have that thread on ignore or rarely read it, is I don’t want the Israel/Gaza conflict spread across every thread either and I rarely post on that thread these days other than for posting major news updates occasionally- Why? Because I got sick and tired of being caught in the middle of a pointless and vicious polarised debate and was being trolled by both sides because of trying to stay even-handed…
However, I have deliberately avoided any discussion of those specific issues on this thread but we can’t be blind to the influence of domestic and foreign extremist ideologues (including those from China, the USA, Russia and yes, foreign extremists groups operating independent of State control) on those that use social media.
Probably a good point to draw a line under this thread which as you say is a complete binfest..
I think we can all agree that racist **** has been given more than enough airtime and no-one affliates with his views on NSC in any shape or form.
