I'vde got nothing against threads with a political theme. I actually find them interesting. It's the style that some of them take which I find so annoying. I want to know what people HERE think about stuff, not what a journalist from the BBC, Reuters, CNN, etc. has to say. By simply pasting up chunks of news items it seems to assume that I rely on a messageboard dedicated to some alternative rock band in order to keep informed of world events, when in actual fact, I read the newspapers and watch enough TV news to consider myself reasonable aware of what's taking place. What I DON'T need is some rastafarian with issues about his own skin colour, getting all creative with his cut and paste in a bid to convince me that babylon's about to fall.
I'm sure I come across as even more of a mindless cretin to someone like suchfriends... with posts like this. All's I can say is that he's probably right. But unlike him, I see this as a forum for communication, not indoctrination.
Peace niggas
