    Doesn't surprise me at all, in this case.

    Let's examine this.

    What does "anti-America labelling and insults" actually mean?

    It means that I point out the ghastly excesses of mainly rightwing America. Point me to a single American liberal here who has objected to what I say.

    And, if you can't, you will have to accept that my labelling and insults are not anti-American. Won't you?

    Y'know, if half of you agree, or at least do not disagree, with me I can hardly be held to be "anti-American".

    You're really not one, y'know. A real conservative couldn't hate liberals like you do.

    And so to show that Awryly is correct in his post, you have proved it by posting the above.

    What's wrong with anti-American posts on an international forum. The amount of anti everything posts by American posters appears to be perfectly acceptable to you but the opposite is insulting?

    I'm doing it too. It's time for you to grow up.

    I am reminded of this from one of the esteemed hereabouts.

    Which, of course, applies equally to current American politics.

    So, an ad hominem attack is criticising what the American right clearly does, huh?

    Don't you think you are exaggerating the American right's right to be called homo?

    I agree, but suspect it's not viable here, gathered from what I read so far. Populism seems to be popular.

    Edit: it's in the rules, so you could always report it.
