Thanks Slim that is stellar.

I am not sure how useful it will be in helping to focus reality for people who are more interested in inventing strawman mind control laser beams arguments to knock down but you never know.

It is very noticable how your well researched and accurately presented arguments complete with exhaustive citations are routinely dismissed by posters who are more interested in policing language and trying to silence any kind of robust debate.

Kind of reflects the emotional triggered based vapid culture outside the forum that Trump ratcheted up and normalised.

We have the same thing here in the UK where people wilfully misrepresent valid criticism of extreme right wing extremism with labels of cancel culture and then actually go on to enact legislation that trys to stop any kind of questioning from universities, the media etc and that kind of attitude and atmosphere is here in buckets full.
