Some posters have a template through which they try to force every current topic. There are two things or three things they say, over and over again. They view any and all conversation as an excuse to broadcast those things. Having exchanges with them is futile, because nothing you could possibly say will make them change their mind: their ONLY purpose here is to see their view prevail.
When they're hijacking a thread as completely as you and a few handful of others, then possibly the ignore function MIGHT work. It's not as good as, say, having you refrain from continuously preaching to the "idiots" that disagree with you, but since this is where you and some of the others have taken the L&G... why not try?
You know Sink, you'd have a lot more credibility if you made your critiques of clogging up the L&G thread known before there are responses to the pro-ALPA crowd. Instead, the ALPA-oids can rail for days against another union, TWA pilots, etc., and there's never a peep from you. But soon as the ALPA-oids get any pushback, you suddenly become outraged. You're another one whose outrage is both selective and highly partisan.
