Studyform is as fair minded as most on here. I think like a lot of people if he can't think of owt good to say, he'd rather say nowt. I don't fully agree with his criticism of 'left'. Anyone against certain things is now called 'far right', that is a lot of people including me. Fair enough for them to assume that people using that label are politically opposite, ie left, and in a polarised country having just two labels is convenient for most.
Thank you, saddo, for recognising that.
As is usual, I'm not arguing anyone's case.
I tend to mention it when something ridiculous or unfounded is put on the forum and it's gone even more irritating than usual.
This seems to mean I'm disputing things that mostly I'm not. Most of it gets ignored, this thread just wasn't.
There's enough grief in the world without getting so indignant about whatever's in the Mail or bothering so many people who until recently weren't remotely interested in politics. Which if you think about it, is most of us.
Anyway all I'm saying is the constant muslim/BBC/corbyn/trump/tommy/etc stuff is boring. It might be OK the first few times or even if just rarely, but it never stops.
Some of it is possibly bots, most of it is by people who honestly believe they're fighting some sort of crusade.
Some people can plonk the message into ANY thread on ANY subject.
Sorry if I shouldn't say so. But there's way too much preaching to the converted and it isn't "debate" or even "conversation". It's just invited arguing.
It is possible that what I said earlier is true and that all this stuff is made by and perpetuated by people who make a nice living from it (media and journalists) and forums (like this one) and phone-ins and street gatherings produce the foot soldiers to keep the wages coming in.

remember, he is only president because Hilary was the WORST candidate since candidates became candidates.
Trump was the worst candidate of all time
People are sick of old guard though and were happy to vote Trump 
Not realizing Trumps always been part of that "old guard", he's a 70 year old billionaire
