Kinda bizarre that you falsely call for free speech and tell me to
live up to my "ideals", all the while tolerating the narcissist
berating and belittling people and wanting me to be silent. I do
live up to my ideals slick. Tolerance runs thin for BS and lies. So
since I paid my share for that right of ours, I do get to have my
say, Yes? Or do you think you can take mine away?


Actually Washington, I've not told you to shut up. I used buzzwords
offensive to the stereotype of the American psyche to tell you you used
an offensive inflammatory term that really means shut up.

I've watched you over time and yes, as you say, tolerance for BS runs
thin. I was tired of yours a long time ago.

That, however means that I place a number of identifying factors in a
killfile and you can continue to say what you like without bothering me
in the least. You're more than welcome to do the same with my posts.

You really believe people need to remain silent and accept BS because
it's a free speech issue? hmm, So what's your dog in this hunt Phob?
Birds of a feather? Part of the same coven? Socialist party perhaps?
What are your ideals? As the man said this is a food gardening
group, not the propaganda arm of the local eco party. Little billy
also agreed and stated such, yet once again somehow he is granted
special privilege for his "Glen Beck" approach to domination. Pretty
hard to be so self righteous and still be fair,isn't it? I'm of the
belief the recent undergrad psych study from one of your countryman,
S. Mehdizadehm, is spot on, but she should include those others who
live soley on the Internet and attempt to dominate newsgroups in her
conclusion.


This is a place for communication. You are not the arbiter of what is
communicated here nor is Billy, nor am I.

I don't agree for a moment with your assessment of the situation or the
word domination which flatters Billy but is as incorrect as it is
florid.

The name of the newsgroup as you say is rec.gardens.edible and gardening
is certainly the primary topic but it is unreasonable to demand that it
be absolute. That is a sure way to kill a newsgroup

I think that OT: and POL: (for politics) should be used when appropriate
in subject header to allow easy killfiling. It is SOP all over USENET
and used judiciously and consistently is a reasonable response to the
point you bring up.

My politics have never been hidden in all their ambiguousness. They run
a gamut.

My ideal is, generally speaking civility, and where civility on USENET
can't happen, killfile. You do the rest of us a favour when you spare us
useless argumentativeness with someone who provides the kind of mirror
you can't ignore.

...and I think you're behind the curve. Gardening as it's growing up
where I live is organic all the way. It is very political very activist
and it's gaining strength fast.

Yet I digress, So do tell me how bunker fuel is eaten in the great
white north. Do you plant it in the spring? When do you harvest it?


If you ignore a topic it will go away.

I'm sure being organic and all, you recommend just piling BS on it
and hand watering so as not to over water, it is that about right? No
IPM of course because that is not always organic, now is it?


Organic IPM is certainly possible.

So come on in, I will let ya wrestle the pig with me, there is
enough mud we can all get dirty or have you finished with your false
flag approach?


You have the option of thinking this through.


You might as well, Gunny, because I have no interest in you. You are
here for gardening, right, and not little moi? Well, get on with it.
Post and interact.
