G'day Sean,
I know the hyperbole on this list comes thick and fast most of the
time,
but when readers start to seriously wish they could tag as {{nonsense}} entire paragraphs of one's emails, it's time to think a little before spewing crap.
When a system is so destructively broken that numerous members of the community realize that it is impossible to repair and begin calling for its complete abolition (and use apt phrases such as "dynamite enema"), it is time for that system's defenders to question their fanaticism.
The hyperbole regarding AFD's "brokenness", including terms like "fanaticism" applied to its supporters, is not a strong argument that it is actually broken.
Jay.
Strong arguments proving its brokenness are laid out in detail elsewhere and need not be repeated. Observation of the fanaticism of those denying that plethora of argument, on the other hand, is perennial.
