The only problem is when other posters continually quote the blocked person so their posts become visible again. We need a second layer of blocking..I already said I'd give a million dollars to whomever can invent such a function.
True... the system has its flaws, but I think this will at least deter me from following the urge to respond to propaganda / provocation. This thread becomes pretty small once I've filtered out the garbage.
Liked the thoughts of Mao Andy, What a monumental historical figure. Built a guerilla army and resisted the Japanese AND the Nationalist (Fascist) army tying up Japanese Divisions for the course of the war and then, victorious after years of sacrifice, assuming power with revolutionary plans for a better future. Very much like the Dynastic replacement of old. High hopes but humans are involved unfortunately.
Despot Mao was a Monumental mass murderer on an industrial scale and genocide exponent - from 45 and up to 80 million died under that Authoritarian and Totalitarian regime -great leap forward/ gulag archipelago and cultural revolution etc.
People are still being killed under the despot Authoritarian and Totalitarian Chinese Communist regime

Should we talk about the atrocities committed by the United States?
This is a China thread Kingsley, enough already. Andy proposed an appreciation gesture, "reached out" I think they call it, and you respond with a whole lot of Russian flavoured spam. I don't know how you can diss a gift dedicated so thoughtfully. When I catch those opening strains I get tremors down ma backbone, the shakes in ma kneebone, shivers in the thigh bone. I'm shakin' all over.
Is it possible that we just agree to disagree? I don't want to hurt your feelings but I mean you're ruining the thread, there's nothing new, just that ominous subliminal warning about being controlled when you're thoroughly controlled yourself. Not one man Jack of us has any control over our ruling elites - that Freedom/Democracy thing is an illusion, a self deception.
You might as well join us as onlookers to wherever events take us in the future cos there's precious little that we can do about it. The control is becoming more and more unsubtle too. As The Count aptly commented, like running it as Half Time entertainment on the TV. I'm sure they considered it but knew that the audience would turn off in droves. Unfortunately apathy ain't gonna save 'em when the balloon goes up - the nuclear one.
Nah Comrade Paddo that's just your old age showing

I hear you loud and clear..hence me always trying to encourage more people to join the music threads to encourage new ideas and tunes.
LOL.this is the one thread I said I'd stay away from. I blame RR and his talk of Rose Bay Chinese food..I'd better leave and go post in the food threads..

I don't know why some people get bent out of shape over the use of the ignore function. It's a perfectly valid option. Just like walking down a supermarket aisle thinking no, I'm not buying that brand as it makes me ill or no I'm not watching that show as I don't like the concept or characters. It narrows the audience of those who deserved to have their wings clipped.Smart enlightened people use the ignore function. It's another way of sifting through what's acceptable and unacceptable to one's personal tastes. That's all.

Hey True Iz don't say ya gorn, say yev knocked off for a smoko but y'll be back laaater orn.........
This is a black day for many of us. What will life be like without the wisdom of the fisher folk, the billionaire club, those eyewitnesses to the evils of America's enemies the world over, the beach house, the gastronomic orgasms accompanied (always) by brimming tankards of craft beer and the glittering legal career? You will not be easy to replace my friend. The thread will be poorer for your absence. These are sad times, indeed, in which we live.

And all freely asserted and verified by our msm. Give us a break. The 96% of the Chinese population who are content with their government must have short memories.

So again you are denying all those 100' of million of deaths under the regimes of Despot Dictators Mao and Stalin ever occurred ?
Been over that 96% rubbish a 13 year survey of 32,000 respondents - do you really think they would print adverse survey results though about the Authoritarian and Totalitarian Chinese Communist regime.
Stalin and Hitler had 100% approval ratings so 96% is nothing to rave about
No doubt you would have consumed a few Vodka's to commemorate 70 years since your Beloved Stalin's passing on March 5
Something is amiss in your top attic one has to honestly say - not just a few roos loose either
