Nice generic personal attack. Is this how you would speak to me face to face or am I to assume you lack basic intellectual and social skills?

I spent years at the LSE surrounded by left wing professors and students who ticked pretty much every box in their statist, anti-capitalist, anti-Western agenda. I have tried to attend university organised events from intellectuals/authors which could not proceed because of violent disruption by 'anti-fascists' thought police. This happens quite often.

I do despise lefties though, scum of the earth.

The Guardian? HAHAHAHA

They don't actually CARE... it just so happens that leftwing, self-apologetic, pro-immigration, anti-British lunatics are the only people who actually read the Guardian...

So of course they have to write articles which appeal to that audience...

I'm preeeeettttyyy sure they do care, actually. Turns out that some people are motivated by more than just money. Shocking, I know.

I'd like to see evidence of this. I doubt the vast majority of Muslims are actively trying to stifle free speech. Perhaps a very small number of Muslims are, and I completely disagree with hiding behind a 'phobia' rather than rationally defending one's views and actions. I have to say that I really hate it when racism is used in this way, and I'm strongly not defending anyone who just assumes that someone who rationally disagrees with aspects of Islam is Islamophobic.

Sounds similar to how TSR restricts comment on Israel. That seems to have worked.

There's a whole thread on debating whether or not Israel should even be allowed to exist

Saying Islamophobia doesn't exist (as many have said already here) is EXACTLY the same as saying anti-Semitism doesn't exist... a quite literally ridiculous opinion to hold. Islamophobia and a rational criticism of Islam are two very different things.

Censorship of opinion polls won't help but I agree with the sentiment of the piece, the vast majority of opinion polls are complete *******s and end up just enforcing the beliefs of the extremists on both side of any particular argument. There needs to be a more responsible reporting of opinion polls in general, it seems like the media in general like to put across that the conclusions from such polls represent large scale opinion of the nation, for the most part that is just not true.

It's also quite obvious that the UK has to be far more intelligent when combating Islamic (and other types) of terrorism as well as things like racism, homophobia, etc

There's one sticky thread, if you start another even remotely Israel related thread it will either be deleted, locked or if you're lucky merged. This obviously restricts debate and prevents any polls on the subject. It does mean TSR isn't flooded with endless repeated or very similar and tedious threads, which is nice but if thats the aim then its about time we had the same for Islam.

If someone makes a thread about Israel, it's allowed to run for a bit before being merged, it's pretty much the standard practice. A similar thing is done for threads concerning the Syria conflict, "does God exist" type threads, debate the theory of evolution etc. But hey, you just want to jump on the thing which relates to the Jews, I wonder why that could be...

Oooh I dunno maybe I'm bored of endless repeated or very similar and tedious threads on Islam, I don't tend to go into Syria conflict or does God exist threads so I've not noticed these threads being deleted, locked or merged, but hey that just further highlights the inconsistency, so thanks for pointing that out but I do have to wonder what you could be insinuating...

Complete nonsense. Antisemitism is hatred towards the Jewish people (ethnic group). Nothing about criticising Judaism.

you thinking that Jews/Israel/Zionists are receiving some kind of preferential treatment

I'm insinuating that you probably have mild antisemitic prejudices.

All these threads are put into one megathread because people would make the same things every week over and over and it just swamps other content

They're one in the same. If someone's identity is intertwined with their religion in the case with Muslims/Islam and you proceed to attack everything about it, you're basically attacking everything about that person. I think it's just a a cover for someone's bigotry.
