I seriously thought about complying but realizing you put out an astounding amount of one-sided agit-prop on the CE board, I couldn't in good conscience agree to sitting back as one-sided propaganda hits the boards and simply pretend it doesn't exist.

My social conscience just would not permit me to agree.

If I am such a "crude, prejudiced and ignorant" person you can't really expect me to ascribe to any particular level of decency, so this should not come as much a surprise.

Please do be my guest and ignore my posts. To be honest they are not for the benefit of those who are entrenched in their views but those who are still flexible and seek two or more viewpoints. And fear not, you will not be the only one who avoids such diversity as I regularly choke Robert's server with. They are clearly labeled with my nom de plume and if Robert includes a blocking feature then it will make it easier to ignore them. In the meanwhile, you will just have to use willpower.

Avoiding "ugly" conservative viewpoints on the board is actually quite easy. There are only about five or six posters posters you or others need to avoid clicking on, leaving you dozens of "safe" posters to read and enjoy. I wish it were such for a curmudgeon as myself.

I hope you had the willpower to avoid reading this post - but if not, there is always the next one - so good luck.

Oh...an afterthought. It might help, too, if your posts are not so polarized - tempting me to respond to them. Then we will all be one big collective of happy HZers.

Auf wiedersehen,

;-)
