I wasn’t really commenting on your exchange with Cass, Deerey. (Maybe I should have just quoted the last sentence) It seems to have touched a nerve with you re t’other side but I didn’t have to be Nostradamus to see where ‘non footie’ was going. I also wasn’t pointing a finger at you. As a general forum it wasn’t just Israel or US elections that drew such hostility and immaturity from some. Climate change, Corbyn, Brexit, Faith issues are others that Spring to mind. In other words .. topical issues well worth examining. My constant appeals for a bit more tolerance fell on deaf ears and one by one ‘dissenters’ shrugged and disappeared. I suspect that this was the goal of some posters. So it has all but died … unless you want to post your current favourite song. I still hold the view that it’s possible to hold strongly differing perspectives and discuss with respect and honesty. Toxicity is not inevitable.
