    Are you hoping to silence the FidoGazette editor?

    You responding with an illogical loaded question says more about your apparent need to have the viewpoint tinted in your colour than it does about mine.

    I'm merely suggesting that it would be nice to have something in Fido that doesn't have any political content at all. A good editor publishes something everyone can enjoy that doesn't carry an agenda or gimmick behind it.

    If not, and it remains a snowflake leftist lemming soapbox, then so be it.

    A real shame because the cooking recipes are good...

    I'm very pleased to see Mr. Clough live in your head rent free and reduce you to crude insults of the grade-school variety. No dick jokes? What a shame.

    I am SO glad that the quote in the FidoGazette quote got to you,
    that was it's purpose.

    LOL!

    What's so funny?

    The fact that she thinks her quote "got to me". That wasn't
    obvious to you?

    Well, I noticed it, but wouldn't say it "got to me". However, my
    quote above CLEARLY bunched your panties, as evidenced by the
    hostile and hateful crap you spewed back at me (I've snipped it
    for decency).

    I read her reply and didn't see any hatefull crap.

    You should read it again.

    She did call you a liar, probably because you lied.

    Would you mind quoting something I said that was a lie?

    Politics are everywhere. Janis's quote of the day was a twitter post about
    the confederate flag and those who wave it today. Something to think about today.

    If not, and it remains a snowflake leftist lemming soapbox, then so be it.

    See what I mean about politics?

    I hope you don't find our recipes too left leaning. ;)

    Something "got to you", or you wouldn't have reacted the way you did.

    Dear Democrats,

    You can't call yourselves "the party of tolerance" AND

    That comes from some kind of alternate reality, it is a lie.

    Your post was illogical and loaded. How can my reply not be?

    By carefully studying several issues of the 'gazette to see that some have had politically-charged or baiting remarks in it since November 2016 for no
    reason other than to push an agenda. If it was a pro-Trump agenda I would complain the same... although I suspect a total emotional meltdown from
    several others would beat me to it.

    Contrast with Fidonews issues in how surprisingly Felten mostly keeps his gimmicks and anti-American vulgarity to himself and not seeping into something which is considered a searchable piece of history. I have no problem with Janis running a gimmick here, just not in something that used to be neutral.

    I've done my homework on all of this but unfortunately just like "Oli",
    you appear to wish to venture into combative insult-territory with me even though I have never insulted you or really ever conversed with you, ever.

    I don't find the gazette to be politically charged or baiting.

    You might find the odd quote of the day or editorial that has a political flavour but it's not a political rag.

    Fidonews was once a hotbed of ranting/raving and rebutals and it could
    happen again if anyone choose to send in an article. I don't remember now if those rantings included politics or not.

    I read both the fidonews and the gazette, at least a quick glance. I've
    never sent in an article and I don't think I ever will. If I have something
    to say I choose an echo to say it and it's easy for those who want to rebut
    or comment on what I have to say.

    I've done my homework on all of this but unfortunately just like "Oli",
    you appear to wish to venture into combative insult-territory with me even though I have never insulted you or really ever conversed with you, ever.

    I don't think I've ever said anything combative or insulting to you.

    You told me my original response to you was an "illogical and loaded
    question". Did you consider that to be an insult? It was not meant to be insulting. It was a question.

    You can't call yourselves "the party of Lincoln" AND wave
    the Confederate flag.

    I know overt liberalism is your gimmick, much like "stupid Americans" is Bjorn's, but I really wish you would reconsider turning the 'gazette into a political soapbox. You tend to be much nicer when you don't use your gimmick.

    I may disagree with what you have to say but understand its your place to say it. But this is a silly message hobby only a fraction of the world uses anymore. Nobody cares to hear about political stuff here, ever. Its tired.

    Lets suppose we all jump aboard the liberal train... What do you expect to happen? A bunch of weirdos from some net called "Fidonet" to march to the
    White House and phyiscally remove the evil Orange Man?

    I do not expect nor want a reply. Just try to be better than this.
