"[Paul] Dacre’s paper is like the drunken lout at a party who can’t get anyone to like him. Suddenly all the girls are sluts and all the men are poofs and he’s swinging at the chandelier before being huckled outside to vomit on the lawn. The Mail desecrates the holy places where it likes to stake its claim, and would be a laughable rag, really, were it not for our degraded political culture taking it seriously. Look at the paper itself and you see it is not the real voice of England, but a dark distortion of it, a post-truth version that shouts about decency but doesn’t exhibit any, that praises aspiration but only certain sorts. Every day in Dacre’s paper, the people who make up the population of Britain, the people who teach your children and bandage your wounds, drive your trains or clean your floors, are described as aliens and forgers and scum. The Mail fought for justice for one black man [Stephen Lawrence], and long may the editor plume on it: the paper he presides over is in no hurry to gain justice for any others. Quite the opposite: the Mail in its present form pictures Britain as a place populated by delinquents and bomb-makers, sexual deviants, spongers, social workers and gay bishops, a dark and fruity manifestation of the editor’s daily fears."
And this rag is informing, if not guiding, government policy. Heaven help us.

Don't see how it's informing/guiding government policy though. I thought they all read the Morning Star...
Also if you want people to read the full article, why don't you link it!?
I think it might be worth considering taking up a subscription in your case as it might broaden your outlook.
Are you losing the argument on the other thread perchance, despite your strident use of capital letters?
I'm happy to engage with you though. I thrive on debating non-contributing members of our community!
That I contribute to discussions, albeit infrequently, is a fact, not a matter of debate. I take it that your comment is supposed to be a dig?
I just don't believe that I have a great deal to contibute on the technical side - there are many people here who know far more than I do about musical equipment, and their contributions are certainly more valuable than mine would be.
No offence though - like you, I do think its important to listen to other people's views, whether you ultimately agree with them or not and, occasionally, to challenge them.
Ah well. Enjoy the classifieds matey, I get it. It's a good place to sell gear. As long as you're not hurting anyone.
Resorting to this kind of behavior is unedifying.
