Don't try and sweet talk me with your silky prose :kiss:
I generally have tongue firmly in cheek when spouting my nonsense others apparently really believe their self delusional guff :p
No the bad thing is the patronising contempt some people have for those that do not share their political views/analysis. Many of us lapse into it on occasion but it appears to be a particularly common trait of a certain type of left leaning opinion. Good luck changing the public's mind with the...
