If it was about open dialogue then all are welcome. Fish is not about open dialogue, it is about spreading anti-VX dogma at all costs. If it were about open dialogue he would participate in discussion and answer questions that are posed to him. He has been asked several legitimate questions and he refuses to answer any of them. For example he claims the downfall of the industry is due to non-union start-ups undercutting wages. However when asked about the role ALPA relaxing scope had, and the resulting endless outsourcing of mainline jobs to poverty level paying RJ operators, he remains quiet and refuses to answer. That is not an example of an interest in open dialogue.

Personally I don't care if a person agrees with me. But it does bother me when a person is ignorant by his own admission (I have never worked for a non-union carrier, I have never been furloughed, etc) yet feels he has the knowledge and wisdom to tell others what to do with black and white certainty. Of course that is the new reality, use the internet to spew vitriol and baseless statements based on your own ignorance, so perhaps Fish isn't really to blame, he is just following the same path as many modern Americans.
