Mike, could you please keep this hateful rubbish off LUGNET?!?

Thank you.

I may be wrong?

You're actually quite right.  I don't feel any loathing animosity towards
anyone connected to LUGNET - member, poster, or lurker.

I feel it towards this person who, imo and that of plenty of others • (including
Todd as of a few days ago and, pardon me for seeming arrogant in assuming
this, as of a short while from now) who ARE truly a part of the LUGNET
community.

I'm willing to group this person in with some other groups of people I bear
loathing animosity towards (and might have occasion to express it on groups
like off-topic.debate) - like the KKK for instance.

But no, I don't think loathing animosity between members of our AFOL • community
is an appropriate thing.  Then again, that's not what I'm expressing when I
express my loathing animosity towards this person, as he has willingly • removed
himself (by his actions, words, and opinions) from our community, both • LUGNET
and RTL-based.  He selected himself out by his choices.  The fact that Todd
can enforce that selection on LUGNET doesn't change the fact that this • person
is responsible for his own actions.
