So you're back to wanting me to back up my question to a poster?

So I've already answered this question. Usually accusations have something behind them, yes.

Now we're bothering other posters with this nonsense so I'm not going to continue the derailment.

The entire point of the conversation we're having re people making posts that won't be checked etc.

What accusations have I made that you feel need further backing up?

I wish you'd make your mind up about what exactly you dislike me so much for so we could stop going around in circles like this.

I think your style is goady and inflammatory

And also tiresome because it seems self centred and distracts from a really important topic

Well when you're making accusations about other posters it's probably best that they have some truth/evidence behind them.

Yes I think it's OK to have an opinion about a poster's style. Many people have an opinion about mine and I think that's OK. You can obviously disagree with that. It's just an opinion.

Its incredibly boring and counterproductive.

But it’s ok to call posters aggressive without evidence?

No I don't acknowledge anything, just that I didn't claim it was "out there".

And I think the accusation is false as there's never anything to back it up.

Western hypocrisy on full display here, Israel has just invaded a sovereign nation and nobody bats an eyelid.

I was thinking this. Israel bombed Lebanon. Iran retaliated, in support of Lebanon. Everyone throws their arms up in shock. Many of the Israeli people themselves are against what is happening.

In the last few years our government were scandalised that Russia killed several people in this country.

Why does our government in the UK feel it's ok when Israel does far worse, and that they have the right to get us involved in their support, in our names?

I did not vote for this.

What a strange equivalence.

I don’t believe Russia has ever fired rockets into the UK for a year, killed 12 school children and displaced almost 100,000 people from their homes in support of a terrorist government who invaded the UK and committed horrific atrocities killing over a thousand UK citizens and taking hundreds hostage. Did they? Must have missed that.

You must have conveniently missed that Hezbollah have been doing exactly that in Israel.

The Lebanese Ambassador to the UK didn’t seem to have an issue with it on the TV interview with Piers Morgan the other day and the Lebanese Government haven’t done anything about it despite rockets being fired from their country for a year!

Surely they have a responsibility to protect their citizens from a large terrorist group operating from their country, participating in a war with a neighbouring one?

Or can any country allow a terrorist group to imbed itself in their country, terrorise and murder their own civilians, murder civilians in neighbouring countries, fire rockets into neighbouring countries and say ‘nowt to do with us, we won’t deal with them and the country they’re raining down explosives shouldn’t be allowed deal with them either, they should just suck it up because they’re Jews so who cares anyway’.

Unbelievable!

It's not a false accusation.

If it's not out there it means you presumably acknowledge it's prevalent all over social media. MN really is no different.

I didn't say it's "out there". It was just an observation of a false accusation you repeatedly make.

I've said it twice in two or three days, which is how long I've been back on the board, and I've said it because I think that's what's happening. I think people frequently make wild accusations on social media in the hope that no one double-checks or fact checks. It's hardly some kind of 'out there' theory. I'm not sure why you think people on MN would behave differently from people on other social media.

And I'm not aggressive, that's just how you've chosen to interpret my comments.

You’re not aggressive- you’re remarkably civil in the circumstances.

You've said this a few times re people not double checking etc. So you're around enough for me to notice that.

The poster finds your style aggressive. So do I. You might not be around much but it's still obvious.

Your style is aggressive, as is the style of many others so perhaps leave it at that?

Sure. When you make comments like that I don't get defensive and accuse you of making things up. That's the difference.

You're an aggressive poster too btw 😀

Seeing as I've barely been on this board these last few months, this is another completely unfair representation of me. I'm not "always" anything as I'm barely on here. I'm really not sure where you're getting this from. Are you just saying that in the hope that others won't double-check and just assume you're right and that they should therefore ignore my posts?

@Humdingerydoo posters would probably be more likely to take into account your points if it wasn't always so confrontational and aggressive..
