""I don't mind so much if they are said to be "stupid" or "uninformed" or "stiff-necked" or "conformist" or something else along that line...because it doesn't carry the condemnatory weight of being called a "racist", a "homophobe", a "sexist" or an "anti-semite". It is not tantamount to an accusation of what amounts to heresy.""


A very neat piece of work this. In two sentences you have managed to state that all the epithets used by Akenaton and GfS are perfectly acceptable, in spite of being demonstrably untrue when applied as a stereotypical description of a whole group, and at the same time all the descriptions applied to the demonstrably biased, one sided, attitudes and language displayed BY them, are unacceptable and amounting to bullying.

As a self styled supporter of the underdog, you have ably proved that your support bears no relation to truth and honesty. I for one am happy that you support bigotry, because I would begin to doubt the honesty of my own position were I suddenly to find you agreeing with me.

Tell me LH, WHO appointed you arbiter on the rights and wrongs of a situation you, by your own admission, don't give a damn about.

My advice?........Tend your own potato patch, and leave us to tend ours.
