Hey, now.  I never said I was a supporter!  Which just makes it worse, 
really, doesn't it?

The mailing list and AfD seem to mirror each other in many ways.  On the 
one hand, AfDers don't pat each other on the back and talk about how 
they're the only ones who realise the truth about those nasty 
inclusionists.  On the other, bile-spewing inclusionists on this list 
aren't deleting others' hard work.


Who deserves to be hated more?  Well, if any of y'all reading this are 
wondering if that's what I'm getting at, it's time to step back a little 
and have a cup of tea or something.


Cheers,
