Quoting KeithL:

Maybe I have not read enough threads, but from what I see, whenever Alemeda posts something, the same people find a reason to be critical of her and her post.
I don't think Peacetrain posting a positive statement about Alemeda deserves the kind of response that you posted Tea. From my chair, very rude....



How is it that you would find teas post to be rude but you don't find peace trains to be rude?

Quoting karpusqueen:


Lighten up everyone and stop using this issue as a stick to beat someone with. I'm sure the site advises that links be posted when appropriate anyway.



Quoting teaschip1:


So why don't you take your own advice and lighten up yourself Peace Train....



From my chair, a double standard...

I don't think anyone criticizes Alameda for posting links. Some find it useful, some pointless or patronising, it's all up to personal likes. What I think most people hold against Alameda is that she has a specific type of debating. Personally, I don't find it debating at all, namely, whenever an argument is posted, she never bothers to refute it with her own words, she posts something absolutely different that her best friend Google finds. If we discuss women's rights in Islam she posts all the hits from women's rights in Christianity instead of creating a separate thread for their discussion. It's a bit like talking to the wall. You say Hitler was a murderer and she rushes to provide you with Stalin's atrocities. Of course she is right about the latter being a murderer, but little does it have to do with the fact that Hitler was not a very nice person himself.

Good that you now provide links for the words or things you are saying
And you are also using your friend google!
Maybe now you understand its not easy and alameda pay efforts and take time to provide such links and you would appreciate it !
İf you dont appreciate it,if you dont wish to read more about it,then dont click on the link,other people do you know ?!

But,i find it inappropriate to make fun of it!
İt shouldnt really be the spirit among us here !

It certainly is GG..it seems to be a continual problem with Keith..double standards. He can attack Israel, but anyone defends Palestein...we are anti-islam and anti-turkish.. If someone tells us to lighten up on Alameda and we clearly have not be critical on this post..but defend ourselves we are being rude...

I really hold little value or respect for such a mod...no kudos here.

Is DK also allowing double-standards? Or am I pulling strings?

Your sentence isn't exactly clear but I think I get your meaning. You can say anything you want about Palestine. And I am free to defend them. Simple...

Please don't try to shift focus. I would appreciate a real response to a specific and valid question I asked of you. How is teas post any more rude than peace trains?
