Someone... not saying who... needs to contemplate 'why' he seems to see an excess of liberals on a this forum. Since it is foremost a music forum and very specifically focused on folk/trad music... and since folkies are widely known for their concern for causes that expose cruelty, abuses, cheating, hate... and general issues of the plebeian classes... I, for one, am not surprised that the basic, insightful commentary tends to exemplify the more liberal/progressive attitudes. ☺ However... forums (fora?) are not 'liberal', people are. Perhaps one who feels inundated by excessive 'liberalism' is hanging out in an inappropriate forum? Except that liberals ARE known for tolerating discussions of almost all viewpoints, even when they seriously disagree with certain ones. I wonder where one can find an...ummm.. conservative... forum where one can feel more 'comfy' and appreciated? I saw a couple a long time ago, and I certainly didn't find my 'liberal' comments very welcome. It gets really tedious when the character of the forum becomes a major point of concern, nicht whar?
