> [@JohnT](#): > > Oh. Him. Our resident old fart, a man so propagandized that he couldn’t help but bring politics into the ‘journalism is bad’ thread (post 25). I see it as post #26, but yes, that’s a strange one. Apparently electric airplanes “don’t exist anywhere except as artist’s renderings”, and, along with fusion power, constitute “credulous glurge” being used by left-wing greenies to scam taxpayers. He certainly inhabits an interesting fantasy world, a world apparently devoid of news that he doesn’t want to know about. Like the fact that some of those “artist’s renderings” have already made successful test flights (not counting the purely experimental solar-powered one that circumnavigated the globe) and Air Canada, United, and four other airlines have already placed orders for short-range electric airliners. Sam is apparently also unaware of the recent breakthrough in fusion power at the National Ignition Facility. I’ve tried to defend Sam from time to time but this sort of thing tries my patience. ---

[TERF activist and biker chela comes for @What\_Exit.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/stifling-debate-without-justification/978905/38) It’s in the ATMB thread where @Johanna complains about unfair treatment. Somehow I doubt @chela is there to white knight. I think there might be other motives. > [@Stifling debate without justification](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/stifling-debate-without-justification/978905/38): > > Your mod post did come on strong I found it dismissive and belittling. Was that true moderation, which is to referee, arbitrate or conciliate a session, or an opportunity to flex your authority? Where’s the kinder gentler tone y’all promised? ---

Not you. Really, I have nothing against you. Someone else in your ATMB thread was trying to yank my chain. See Charlie’s post above mine here. ---

Not really. At least, not a sincere and meaningfully contributory question. ---

Or just go into a random thread and post some incorrect “facts” backed up by cites that don’t say what you claim. Then whine that you’re being picked on by the lefties. That always works a treat.
