BNP back at it again, time to start a Facebook group?

22/12/2009 – 19:11

Looks like they have started again: http://newsforums.bbc.co.uk/nol/thread.jspa?sortBy=2&forumID=7365&edition=1&ttl=20091222190905&#paginator
With the recent success of Rage Against The Machine thanks to a Facebook group I’m starting to think it might be a good way to sort this out. Unfortunately Facebook’s privacy policies go against my nature but maybe this time needs must…

No more Wikipedia editing

08/12/2009 – 18:31

I have decided to give up editing Wikipedia.
Stupidity, American-centric ideas and the ability of people with too much time on their hands to enforce their personal preferences has not only driven a lot of good editors away, but it has also done a lot of damage to the content too.
If you compare the Japanese version [...]

Halfwit racists

25/11/2009 – 22:49

I don’t know why I keep reading the BBC Have Your Say forums. I fear I may be turning into a Daily Mail reader, hooked on that feeling or moral outrage.
Anyway…
No. There are millions of pictures of non-black people being ridiculed (i.e. George Bush, Tony Blair, Bunker Brown, Nick Griffin, Wayne Rooney etc, etc), should [...]

BNP vs. BBC HYS forums – BNP loosing?

13/11/2009 – 00:03

In the last few days posts mentioning the BNP seem to have dried up. While this is definitely a good thing, I wonder exactly why it is happening…
I’d like to think that it’s the BBC taking notice of my complaints and doing something about them. However, I have a feeling that there may be a [...]

Response from the BBC re: BNP hijacking of Have Your Say

03/11/2009 – 19:54

I got a response from my complaint to the BBC:
Dear [MoJo]
Thank you for your e-mail.
I understand you’re unhappy with the ‘Have Your Say’ messageboard as you feel it is being used by BNP and far right extremists to air their views and you feel this is inappropriate.
If you disagree with a moderation decision please email [...]

BBC Have Your Say as a mouthpiece for the BNP

17/10/2009 – 18:08

If anyone were in any doubt that the BBC Have Your Say forum is being used by right-wing extremists like the BNP to push their views, today’s question about Binyam Mohamed should soon clear them up:
Send him home!!!!
[RulaBritannia], Bradford, United Kingdom
and
Yet again the system making me think its time to give the BNP a closer [...]

Living the lie

03/10/2009 – 23:54

The biggest lie of the modern age is the American Dream(TM), also known as Thatcherism in the UK.
The pitch is that anyone can make it if they work hard. Wealth comes to those who earn it, who do it for themselves.
Actually, most people will never be rich. Most of us spend our entire lives working [...]

More BNP nonsense on BBC Have Your Say

03/08/2009 – 18:59

It seems that the BNP has been making a big effort lately to push their views via the BBC Have Your Say forums. It’s not surprising really, as the forums get millions of page views but you only need ~150 votes for your comment to rise to the top, something any interested group with more [...]

On the state of society and welfare

25/07/2009 – 18:16

Spotted this in interesting post over at [dis]connect.
Here is my response:
The “American Dream” (TM) is basically the biggest lie we have ever been sold. For us in the UK, it was Thatcher who promised it and Thatcher who ruined everything for us. Our society has literally disintegrated thanks to her “I’m all-right, screw you” philosophy.
The [...]

Too stupid for their own good

16/01/2009 – 23:01

The BBC Have Your Say forums are an almost unending source of distress for any half way sane observer, but occasionally I feel moved to comment. Today’s question: Would you like to see calorie counts on menus?
The responses are predictable; “no” to the nanny state, telling us what to eat, where we can pollute everyone [...]
