Having read it without contributing I have to agree. Wasn't too bad at all. |  | |  |

FWIW I think you posted the title out of unawareness. Was more some of the follow up comments. |  |

Caught a few bits - it was only ever going one way wasn't it? Noticeable a couple of posters keep turning up at the same time to engage with the poster not the posts though. Not sure you can really fillet those threads into useful discussion as it just goes one way for some people. We need a signing or the wait until fixtures this week is going to be ropey. |  |

....filleting the posters themselves has improved things massively. We just need that separate politics section and it will be back to it's former glory. |  |

I guessed as much. I suppose the challenge is some posters will always pop in (often with what they feel is the best intentions) to both sides and end up supporting the far right. When you watch a video of Yaxley Lennon getting punched without context of who he is one could almost confuse him as a victim. Either way I'm sure WB is screaming CANCEL CULTURE at their screen right now. Despite the fact they seem to think the world should accept their opinion-formed viewpoint despite the lack of evidence-based argument, and then cry victim/be abusive when asked for said evidence.

Sadly there's a lot of regulars on this forum too who like to be disingenuous about posting history, and deletion works all too well in their favour. Easy to ask for "Evidence?" when they know full well the evidence is gone. Also even easier for those posters to then claim one refused to provide evidence rather than acknowledge it was there and now it's gone. |  |

I'm not a fan of different sections. You can tell a post from the title. The "get this out of the football section" bitching has stopped for the most part though. Was always a weird thing to post that. Thread mode is the next thing to go. Gav needs to sort that. |  |

TWTD responsive and mobile-friendly website is around 5-6 years behind deadline too ;) The problem with the POLITICS section is where do you draw the line? I get by just fine not clicking... Cricket threads Gambling threads Horse racing threads Boxing threads ...And there are plenty of them. |  |

I don't want to cheer on a football club alongside intolerant people who would happily send international players to Rwanda if they weren't professional athletes in a blue shirt. I don't want to project collective opinion but I don't think I'd be a minority in that view. |  |

Not sure if you saw the thread or not. I kept out of it and although it didn't quite get to the point of no return it seemed to be heading that way. A couple of posters made it known they felt personally affronted by one or two close to the mark comments yet some of it continued anyway. You are not going to find unity when some people think it's ok to push at others like that. |  |

Not all opinions are equal, another fallacy which has become disturbingly popular in recent years. To be honest, I am tired of pointing this out. SB [Post edited 19 Jun 2022 20:48]

Life is all about diverse opinions - I might not agree with everyone, and that be across millions of people - I can handle that, maybe you need to grow-up |  | |  |

Just because someone has a different opinion it doesn't mean someone needs to respect it if it's demonstrably false. The equivalence of opinion is a plague of modern times and detrimental to society as a whole. SB |  | |  |
