How can he be anti-American when he is (south) american himself? Do you have a link? Although his intent is very good (creating economic cooperation between south american countries and decrease economic dependency on the US), I am not very fond of the idea of creating an oil pipeline to the amazonas, like Chavez wants. I really think it should be free from activity of the "modern" human.
This might be one of those US / Europe fault lines. Chavez was democratically elected, whether you like his politics or not. Certainly no more irregularities in the voting process than in the US... Personally I think that if you believe in democracy, you have to let a country choose the way it wants to go, even if you disagree with it.
Stonecircle is a conservative troll. In this thread he just cut & pasted text from FreeRepublic. Therefore he is now banned. He couldn't be bothered to put in his own words, but had to take the words of others, which is just conservative spam. Plus he was promoting another, conservative site with spam ads as well.
Go Skip! I only just read all of the posts on this thread, even though I replied earlier. I don't know when I last heard anyone get accused of being a communist agent. It's almost got a pleasantly retro feel as an insult these days. Perhaps it's even a classic, vintage diss by now...
Hi skip! How ironic that, after telling us you've censored "stone circle", the tag line on your post extoles free speech. I find it refreshing to have to justify my views to rabid rightwingers. Hey last stand, are you still around? What did castro say in 59? I assume you have a specific comment in mind? He must have said alot that year, after all. X
How do i do it? Every time i post a comment, everyone deserts the forum! I'd like to think that, it's because what i've said is so apt that you feel there's nothing to add, but some how i doubt it. Hello! Is anybody there? (echo)
Read the forum guidelines. Spammers are history as soon as they're spotted. I don't give a shit what their ideology is. No cut & paste without commentary AND attribution. That is COPYRIGHT LAW, not mine, so don't give me shit.
i am against violence ... however if i see someone at the recieving end of a bully or such them im sorry but i am in there feet first .. doesn´t mean i abdore violence .. or that i am a hypocrite .. but what is required at the moment is required and a part of life in reality.
OK, fair doos, you're both right he was a right wing twat. I just think people like that can sharpen us all up a bit, it's all very well hanging out with sound people and agreeing with eachother, but it's interesting to have to justify your views, so you remember why you hold them. No? Where was i: Viva chavez, viva zapatista! peace x
viva zapatista ... libre en exilio ... in publically supporting them i am officially classed as a terrioist in the uk .. jejejejejejejeje
Jeekers! It doesn't take much to qualify these days does it. They've lowered the entry requirements. Oy yoy!

Quite right too, dangerous radicals like thee and me shouldn't be allowed to expound our views, throw the book at us i say! Seriously with all these new state powers i feel like i'm living in germany in the 30s. I demonstrated against that CJA, was it 1992. It was alot of fun, but as so often, didn't seem to do the job. Say, in your pic, are you hugging a tree or drawing a bow string?
We don't mind a range of views, in fact that's fine. But when ppl come to this site ONLY to attack our views, then they are trolls. And they're easy to spot. If you FEED the trolls by responding to their attacks, you only encourage more to come. This is a community, and ppl who don't want to be a part and are ONLY here cause they disagree with our views, not because they want to part of our site, don't belong here. There are numerous right-wing groups on the net who systematically target sites like ours. They use a variety of techniques including derailing threads by changing the subject, confusing the issues, and just plain lying. You are welcome to report any post or user (using the report button) that seems to fit this description and they will be dealt with swiftly.
Yes, i see what you mean. He was a wind up merchant really. What you say made me think i ought to go on one of these right wing sites, and indulge in a bit of fash baiting, but it would be pointless. You've got to start with some common ground. Sorry to argue with you skip. peace x
Where are these right wing sites that were mentioned?I might like to go in some and attempt to stir up a little shit myself.
