I've never been one to argue for censorship in here...quite the opposite. It's what always made this place better than any of the other commod chat rooms. MAn does not live by trading alone. Mike has, in my opinion always been real god about that, too.
I wouldn't mind a reasonable and even disagreeable argument about politics...not that I have any say in the matter...but Mike has made it clear that we were, I in particular I'm sure, were getting to far afield especially with language. I just refuse to interact with the politics anymore unless I feel like I can draw a pretty straight and distinct line from politics to market...which usually isn't hard to do.
Propaganda crap like Mofo puts up, though, is worthless and designed to foment anger for the purpose of eliciting remarks that are liable to get this place shut down. A goal of his and the left, being as most of the participants in here seem not to lean that way...all three of us. LOL!
Anyway...that's the way I see it as I said before...I don't own this place and have no say...it's just my opinion. I do know that it takes a whole lot of restraint for me not to blast away on Mofo. When he/she/it puts stuff like that up here, I don't even consider a reasoned argument and really just want to insult his lineage.
Much restraint is required on my part...much.
I hear you about the pop ups. I need to get back to clicking ads in here on a more regular bases as I run an ad blocker and ads is how this place justifies itself, I guess. My ad blocker count is up to 3,028,000 and this iteration of the blocker is only a few years old. I suspect if I had not had changed computers a few times the number of adds I blocked across the net would be pushing 10 million. That's insanity!
