Disagreeing with me is not spreading hatred Slug.
Lots of people on this forum disagree with me and they don't spread hatred .
That title is reserved for you.
You speak about women and immigrants in a disgusting way, you call people woke. You would have called the soldiers woke that freed the prisoners in the German concentration camps, as they broke down, some committed suicide because they couldn't live with what they saw. Many Germans who guarded the camps also took their own lives and even some of the young people today who give tours around the camps take their own lives. You are a thoroughly vile individual and not because you disagree with me.
Again you show how unintelligent you are Slug, as you don't even know what free speech is .
People have the right to a difference of opinion, what they cannot do is spread hatred, and discriminate against sections in society, as that is a criminal offence.
It is only the far right Fascist movements that pretend that abuse of minorities and women and spreading hatred is free speech .
It's not, and the unintelligent think they are smart by pretending it is.
Slug this is why you are so unintelligent, I am a Londoner. I was born in London. It's people like you who are a disgrace to this country. People fought and gave their lives so that we could live in free and democratic society. They fought against people that hold your vile views.
And to be truthful, I find Dom Cummings to be totally entertaining with his blog on 10 Down Street parties, it’s kept me amused all week, haven’t laughed as much fir a while.
The Slug, I quite fancy turning up on some Spanish beach in my rowing boat this summer and hopefully they will put me up in a 4star hotel, sure way to save money, I am definitely up for that. Summer holiday sorted.
Q, all of which may be true, but it's not against the law.
BTW, the over use of the word facist is depriving it of its meaning and makes the person using it sound faintly ridiculous.
Slug is Goldfingerer, he talks in an abusive way towards women, he insults people for being different, and I don't need to remind anyone on this chatroom of how offensive he is in so many other ways.
He is also extremely unintelligent, although that is not a crime. As he thinks I am left wing, I am left of slug, as I am not a fascist. He doesn't like immigrants, and talks about victory and the sacrifice people by giving their lives for.
I repeat really unintelligent as he would know that nobody fought the Fascist Nazi movement more than the Polish.
I feel ashamed that fascists like slug don't respect the lives given to fight the people that had slugs values.
Quady, I'm perfectly well aware of what the law does and doesn't permit and I've not seen anything from Slug that transgresses the law. If you think he has, report it to the authorities.
Addicknt let me give you a tangible example of something that is not free speech.
If a number of people gather outside your house and start shouting that you are a Rap.ist or worse.
Then that is not free speech as we have laws built up over time to explain what free speech is.
Yours and Slugs definition of free speech would support people taking the law into their own hands, and this is not free speech.
Copper, yes, let's hope that deliver something exciting, and I think you're right about March/April.
Hi addicknt, Jauary won't be a dull month for Solgold in Ecuador! The bits are turning nicely, and hopefully finding good pay dirt with each drill. Assays will be piling up as we speak. DC and the team will have their noses to the stone. It may not seem it to some, but the saying "no news is good news" rings very true at the moment! I have been saying for eons (maybe 12-18 months) that the real news won't start emerging till around March/April 2022 time. Others have been banging on for 12 months and longer that a sale is imminent....it wasn't and it still isn't!
Enough from me, back out to the fields!

Quady, you state that what Slug says is isn't free speech, it is. What you actually mean is that you don't approve of it and therefore it can't be free speech. You may then extend your argument and say that many people don't like it and it's also offensive, which it may be, but that doesn't impinge on his right to say it. There is no right not to be offended.
The way to defeat an argument is to do so via the power of counter argument, not by simply demanding people be stopped from saying something.
Anyway, that's enough of that - mind you, there's feck all else to talk about at the moment and January looks as if it's going to be a very dull month.
Addicknt your better than that, what he says is not free speech.
Q, use of any particular word is about context and application. Your use of the word has all the hallmarks of Stalinist Russia. You don't like what some has to say and you immediately demand denunciation and banishment. It's not a healthy approach to freedom of speech in a democratic society. I may not agree with what or how Slug approaches things, but he's perfectly entitled to his approach.
I’m simply saying that we won’t evolve unless we listen to all sides and try and understand why people hold certain opinions whether we find them abhorrent or not.
Now can we please drop it and get back to Solgold
DBW no one believes in free speech more than me, if you knew my family history you would understand why.
Don't let people like this foul individual fool you that hate speech is free speech. It's not, and just some cursory glances over the history of how free speech evolved will show you this.
Too many on here don't understand free speech and think it means you can say anything. It doesn't.
That's why laws on libel, public indecency, hatred of women, Ra.cist abuse and other grotesque actions exist.
As societies around the world evolve so does free speech, and that is what is leading to a more open democratic society where every day more and more of humanity feel included.
Addicknt I know your command of the English language is better than mine, most on here express themselves in a better way.
However denouncing as you know is not Stalinist, it's accurate.
I just looked up the exact meaning and origin of the word.
It means to publicly declare that someone is wrong or evil. This individual meets both those criteria.
For someone who clearly hates women in the way he talks about them, and talks about his fellow human beings in the way he does, is both wrong and evil.
Interesting that the word comes from 13th century old French, so you could hardly accuse that period in French history as being Stalinist .
Morning Q
All I’m saying is if we believe in freedom of speech we have to accept all views are valid or none …. Not just the ones we believe in ourselves.
More to the point ….. can we keep it to Solgold on here Soooooo much in the pipeline and no tangible news since the AGM some 5 weeks ago , covid no longer such an issue ( thankfully) and Xmas / New Year out of the way …….. something brewing here big time and as someone else said the other day I’ve never been so confident in Solg as I am now
Enough bickering DBW
More 'thoughtcrime' from Slugger. Thankfully the Orwellian Stasis are here to protect us.
"denouncing", what a wonderfully Stalinist word. Off you go to the gulag, Slug.
DBW we know he is your friend Goldfingerer, otherwise you would be denouncing this vile individual as well.
Blimey the lynch mob is out today ….. not related to Cummings are you ?
Morning Shipwright no Pigeons where he lives, they have all left.
Apparently he has being telling them that they are left wing woke Pigeons, and he blames them for Covid as well, because in his warped mind a Pigeon is really a bat, and they have flown over from China to personally spy on him.
He doesn't like Dogs or Cats either for similar reasons.
No doubt he will deny this, but the evidence is overwhelming.
Either that or he is just unintelligent, as he has proved on countless occasions.
I will let people judge for themselves.
Hi Shippy, he had a late one last night mate, he was hoovering the lawn when I passed by around 01.30am. They've probably zonked him out for a while!
GLA.
Slug, would it be too much to ask for you to go back to shouting at pigeons for a day and give us all a rest?
