*sigh* I tend to agree with you.
Disputes over NPOV are not unusual and not, generally, problematic. But I do hate to see someone on a rant who clearly has no intention of accomodating other people's views in the least.
Clutch, notice that "It's true" is not usually a defense against a charge of POV. I could write, on a page about North Korea, that it is led by muderous tyrants with no right to exist, much less right to nuclear weapons. Well, that's true. But it is still not NPOV.
The "murderous tyrants" bit is NPOV, but it would require some backing up.
