Also, do you have your own blog? I enjoyed your comments at Abu Muqawama but now that the comment section barely seems worth reading, thbbbt. I wonder the same about SNLII.<BR/><BR/>The comment dilemma is difficult. I hope though that Abu Muqawama doesn't go the route of the Harvard MESH blog which only allows comments from its little clique, thus restricting the debate to pre-approved ideological positions. Better too free/chaotic than boring.Adrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05953649845499754508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34302342.post-32695260514967368372008-06-18T08:18:00.000-05:002008-06-18T08:18:00.000-05:00Its really sad, seems like a group of far righters...Its really sad, seems like a group of far righters have brought with them their equally unhinged group of far lefters and decided to destroy the blog-comments. I used to be the token anarcho-leftist there, and it was good, I think (never at least got any complaints) because the discussions were polite and usually sort-of on topic. The real experts appreciated opposition, and the tone was jocular.<BR/><BR/>Please feel free to spam the owner of http://sweden1975.t35.com/sw75/index.html who has announced his mission to "ridicule all leftist ideologists" and has now "moved house" to abu muqawama, bringing with him his entourage from Angry Arab. So sad.

Not too extreme in either direction.<BR/><BR/>The emotive far right numbnuts will destroy the comments section on that blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
