How naive of you.

Snip

Do you have any idea how stupid you look posting off topic
political
stuff for the most part to this news group? I didn't think so.

Plonk

Do you think of how stupid you look trying to divorce politics from
shortwave? Do you truly believe that much of this hasn't been hashed
over every form of communications medium available including
shortwave?

Spare us your hypocrisy!

No one's keeping people from going over
to soc or talk newsgroups and discussing
politics there; that's what those newsgroups
are for.

Telamon is right that if you feel you have
the right to spout off about it, people also
have the right to not listen. If a user is
constantly changing e-mail addresses
to make sure that they are heard, then
people will simply go away and you're
left talking to a wall.

Sports are found just as easily on shortwave,
but you hardly ever hear it mentioned here
at even close to the frequency that you
do with politics. Same thing happens with
music.

Maybe I should start crossposting NFL and
rugby and cricket news to compensate for
the political news.
