Truth is you and a few others can't handle opinions different to your own and constantly try to shut them down by name-calling or some other put down tactics. It really is pathetic and downright childish.

I post some anti-Corbyn threads and some threads on mass immigration. All stated in a reasonable way using reasonable language. I don't swear or use unacceptable terms but get called unacceptable names by a few for sharing opinions not in agreement with their own.

Corbyn and Mass immigration are very much current news at the moment - very high profile subjects, on the news and in the newspapers and are subjects that affect us all. Unfortunately a handful of people seem to be trying to enforce censorship on this site when people express strong views different to their own and effectively foot-stamp constantly.

Is this or is it not an adult forum for the expression of adult opinions because sometimes people could certainly be forgiven for thinking it wasn't. I have been made to feel uncomfortable by that same handful of people for sticking to my guns and not bowing downing to their attempted intimidation. I have posted some harmless articles mainly from national newspapers ffs - stop being such drama queens. And you talk of being bored.

Maybe I should see it as a compliment as the constant OTT reactions by that same few to my relatively harmless posts suggests to me that they see my posts as some kind of threat. Otherwise why wouldn't they simply ignore them or put me on ignore. Human behaviour can be so telling.
