I'm not pointing fingers at any particular person, but am I alone in

being
bothered by the numerous political posts and downright rudeness that

seems
to be becoming more frequent here? Wouldn't we have a more

enjoyable
experience if we kept to the subject of the group?


To answer the direct question, probably yes.

But I just checked several hundred of the more recent posts on this
group and relatively few are on purely political topics. That's not
bad considering the hobby seems to attract individuals with strong
political views.

There have been times when the group was unreadable, but I don't think
that this is one of them, nor do I think all "political" topics can be
completely banned from a shortwave group when the listening experience
is often political in nature. Are we to say, for example, that
discussion of the overt politicization of the BBC is inappropriate?
