If you mean the link to the holocaust denial thread (that was the only true link I gave), then I was pretty much a bystander on that (I had a different name too), it was the other people on both sides who were far more active.
So, jakell, what other username were you then called?
It would help those of us to learn more about your past contributions.

Seems to me the only witch hunt occurring presently is one being engaged in by some hoping to ban AD.

Placing another poster on "Ignore" or even a more thorough blocking of another's comments seems to me rather immature, childish, in fact. Like turning off the news to pretend the horrors being reported are not actually occurring. "I'm not talking' to him. You tell him this for me and then tell me what he has to say" kinda crap.
No one can control another's postings until after they've posted. The only thing you can control is your reaction to what they've written. You're all adults, fer crissakes.
And you all are disrespecting your host who provides you with this remarkable place. He asks only that you conduct yourselves appropriately as intelligent adults and do unto others as you would have them do to you.
If you cannot keep yourself and your emotions contained because another's words have inflamed you, please remember whose living room you are in and that you are a guest here and restrain yourself from acting out - out of respect for Mr. Wells and his Rigorous Intuition.
A momentary lapse of reason caused my first one-week banning and a month of self-induced introspection.
If you feel yourself getting hot and cannot contain yourself, limit your anger to a PM to whomever wrote what upset you. Or complain to a mod. But let's keep the board clean of such cosmic debris, cause if you don't, that is surely all that will be left of RI to remember.

Perhaps mods could divert front page (GD) postings to the appropriate subforum?

The first insult comes at just the second post from the OP. Humour-free, no tolerance or curiosity or exploration of a different pov from the OP, differing personal points of view flooded with low quality CopyPasta, an incessant, divisive, bad-faith reframing of objections to this very behaviour as: supporting fascism, anti-Semitism and working to a far right agenda at RI.
Temperature increase. Massive bad feeling. Thread locked.
When I think of a hideous RI thread, this one comes to mind.
Compare and contrast these threads, if you will. What are your impressions?
This is patently false.
Here is the second posting on the 2013 thread, mine:

How can we be sure that Icke is not exactly what he's claimed others to be, a shape-shifting lizard, in order to further destabilize society?
How can we be sure that is indeed Icke in those videos and not some crisis actor?
Frankly, look who's missing from the 2007 Icke thread and compare it to the present participants.
With the passage of time comes new information with which some may now have changed their 2007 opinion of Icke. I still can't get past his claim to be the Messiah. How those who support him do is beyond my understanding.
