I Received A Great News Talkers Honor Today!
I was banished from John Russell's personal ideological echo chamber "Right Wing Hysteria" for the crime of posting comments and content that were contrary to John's narrow view of the world.
No greater honor is available to a thinking individual not bond by the ideological chains of either the right or the left.
I have seen
and survived to comment another day.

you are now healed....
OK, that's just funny. Thanks.
John
All zealots need an echo chamber in which they hear only what they want to hear and can convince themselves that it is all the gospel.
Having banished dissent from your echo chamber you now have that self approving, self adoring echo chamber that you desired.
John
Please comment on the topic and not on other members or I will have to have a moderator delete your comment as a "personal attack"
Grumpy
I am glad you were amused and thanks for the feedback

Indeed I did!
Thy symbolic healing touch is appreciated
John
Left wing hysteria, which I highlighted repeatedly is totally relevant and germane to the topic of right wing hysteria.
That you cannot grasp and accept that is evidence of the need for your echo chamber
You have crushed the opposition and now can post and pontificate without contrary views being expressed, that is what you wanted and that is what you have achieved by outlawing and banishing the opposition
Your hero, Barrack, would be proud I am sure - instead of embracing the differences of the opposition and discussing them and working towards common understanding you have crushed and thrown aside the voice that dared disagree with you
Well done
Be nice now
Sparsely populated echo chambers are the best kind for some
''Sparsely populated echo chambers are the best kind for some''.
Very true RIO. I was bounced from a group (which will remain nameless at this point)because I didn't conform to their ideology.

If it happened to you as well, I feel I am in good company
I did not attack, I merely reported the honor of being deemed unfit for John's group
Others (john included)) have attacked each other and they should be ashamed, ashamed I say
There, Robert, you did it!
Freed yourself from all hysteria, right?
You would not have been banned because you were sticking to the topic of classic films, and providing your opinion about them, good or bad. But if you were continually posting about Chinese cooking or Greek philosophers I would have deleted your posts as being off topic, and if you complained about that I would have banned you.
Because you called me out notwithstanding my not having posted on your article I felt obligated to defend myself from your comment about me. Otherwise I would never have commented on this article.
A different group RIO, but still some that are complaining here should really take a long look at themselves.
Play nice
I did not attack John, I cited his action of banishing me as a honor to be treasured.
No one is ever free from the hysteria, purveyors of hysteria follow you around the main forum as well
I "defended" myself because you had the audacity to state what I would do when in fact what you said was NOT what I would do.
That is the second time you've unfairly told me to "knock" myself "out". Three times and YOU'RE out.
I am closing down this article. It has a place and that is in HD.
