Dear SteeleRedux,

Loudmouth is going to tell us what he did his BA in; very likely he might have done history as a qualifying component of his BA. I'm hoping he and I have done some of the same subjects so that we can have a real Q&A between us on topics outside of the Forum topics.

Misopinionated,

BA: politics, economics and geography.
BA Hons: economic geography and community development.
M. Policy in relation mainly to Indigenous policy and history.
Also studies in accounting, local government admin, primary/secondary/Ad. & Further Ed, land law and property, and general business admin.

So what on earth is environmental sociology ? It sounds like about as wanky as any postmodernist could desire.

Any chance of getting back to topic, instead of this infantile slagging and pissing contest ?

Joe

Foxy,

"Your track record is not a good one on this
forum."

That's an 'eye of the beholder' thing. But I'm pretty happy with the way things have gone here over the past year or three.

Three things pop put.

1) I was, from the outset, sure and assertive, that the whole Russia-gate thing was utter rubbish. In the face of the Trump-hating cabal here, I continually pointed out the sheer absurdity of the whole thing.

And then when Mueller started, the cabal constantly assured us that impeachment was a certainty. But I tried to get them to understand how wrong that was. One of the cabal assurd us that, since she'd in the US she had special insights and she knew Trump was gone. Others were predicting the end of Trump every other month. Poor SR saw Trump's subservience to Putin in every decision Trump made.

It was gratifying to be finally shown to be utterly correct and that those who admonished me for being too naive were utter wrong. That level of vindication is rare.

2) That same US-living member also assured us that Trump was illegitimate because the electoral college was anti-democratic. She knew because she'd lived in the US. It was fun to point out that she was utterly wrong on that point as well. She failed to own up, but I note that the I've-lived-in-the-US trope has been dropped (although I suspect it will now return).

3) to my knowledge, none of my statements of fact have ever been conclusively disproven. Contested yes, which is good, but never disproven.

mhaze,

one thing I am reminded of and amused by, is whenever the mention of the "college", in American politics is used to justify a loss. Given the opportunity, I quickly remind them that it was the same system that also put THEIR side in power in some other election, so how stupid and narrow minded can some people be?
And some wonder why I go tropo at some when they make such supercilious statements.
Ergo my not wanting people to vote, in the first place.

mhaze,

Here's a partial list o some off Trump's behavior.

His, like yours, speaks for itself.

This stuff is all historical and a matter of record.
We all know he's just another normal healthy guy.
He has already admitted he's not perfect.
We all know he's not perfect.
Now that I have re-stated the obvious that we have all heard for the hundred and fifty-eth time, as you continually keep doing this, and it is pathetic, so;
WTF is your point?
You show your true colours and an extreme lack of courage to own up to your shortcomings and flaws, by not coming out and saying what you really mean, but hide behind this veil of innuendo's and repetitious dogma.
You say proudly, you have been on Quora for decades, and yet you have learned nothing.
