[Ditto - further such discussion will result in the locking of this thread]
Let's Discuss Politics!

so, there's nothing at all strange going on here with relation to me? Let's just be clear on that. That statement is true?

Aren't you going to lock the thread? Someone dared to talk politics... not in a nasty "you're stupid" way, but in a here's a non-partisan discussion of political theory.
The only intention of the thread is clearly to discuss politics...
So shouldn't you lock it and delete it? or is there some other motive? ... to try to allow traps for people perhaps?
This whole community is just fishy as hell...

The original purpose of this thread was not to discuss politics, but to advertise a group where politics could be discussed. It attracted some political discussion, which I redacted and cautioned against, hoping that would get the message through. Clearly, that hasn't been enough, so this thread has indeed been locked.
[Political commentary deleted - please discuss in Open Discussion or the club being advertised in the original post of this thread rather than in the public forums.
