Fred,
That was just an example of "sort", "kind" or "ilk".
The "negative connotation" was only on the part of the
author of the "sentence example" that was being used
there to show how the word "ilk" could be used.
"Ilk" therefore could be used "just as correctly" with
either a "positive" or with a "neutral" connotation as
with a "negative" one.
If that "sort" or "kind" or "ilk" are actually and
factually "lying and hypocritical and pov slanderous
and censorious bigots", then that "sort" or that
"kind" or that "ilk" actually should, IMHO, have
"negative connotations", no?
"Ilk", then, in that case is most appropriate.
If you are going to edit here, Fred, you really should
know the actual meaning of words, before making any
such comments.
Factual accuracy and a NPOV within articles is what I
am really up to, and not pov "quarreliing and
fussing".
Maybe you should look in the mirror and then think
about that fact and about your own self and about that
"ilk" that is always trying to block, ban, and censor
me, for only their own pov verses the Wiki NPOV?
