Hi Per,
I changed the subject line of this thread. If it annoys you don't read
it. Let us have a go ? I agree with sandor; this list is about
unfolding. And any way I wrote to Paul when he was disenchanted with
this list, that if I got the chance to change things, I would.
Per I. Mathisen wrote:
I agree wholeheartedly. I have witnessed this process happening many times
before. Above all, realize please that nazis deliberately try to play
innocent and downplay their racism in order to drive naive liberals to
their defense, and thus win a platform for subtly putting out racist
propaganda.
What happens when an unstoppable force hits an unmovable object ?
The most naive way to approach this is to say that this person should be
kicked from the list only when he crosses some invisible line, eg for
posting racism or behaving bad. Nazis deliberately work on the edges of
such lines, stretching it tryingly every now and then, generating endless
and never concluded debates about if he went over the line this time.
We tend to conclude debates on this list.
A nazi on the list will be a source of permanent off-topicness. I've seen
it happen so many times, I am not sure I will bother staying around seeing
it happen again.
Would you stick around if I tried to make it amusing ? - (that is whilst
still retaining respect for Jonathan's right to exist ... even though I
think his web site sucks as it stands )
Best Regards

Adam
