Expectation of anonymity on a public forum.

[the big wheel]

I think it’s pretty bad getting jollies off of berating someone’s identity let’s face it this is a right wing dominated forum if anyone says any thing anti right wing you get put down attacked personally more than the point of the issue. There are many level headed people on here but some are too far right or left. But so what that’s what our society is. Do you really hate someone far right or far left in view? Or is it sometimes not being able to deal with the truth not being on your side of an argument on a public forum?
Because chuck isn’t always right according to my beliefs but he certainly isn’t always wrong. have to laugh at some who go so far as to block a posters posts. Lmao lmao are you really that sensitive about reading something or is it just a little too much work to scroll down. Lmao.

We d be a complete shit hole place if things were left to the extremists of both sides. That is something I know is a fact.
Not at least listening to the other side is pretty dumb and dangerous if we all did it.

I just think it was about time to knock that prick off his pulpit, I couldn’t so I blocked him, he didn’t even write something that contributed to the form, all he ever seems to do is belittle everybody.

Ok, let's analyze the user name "chuckChuck".

Is capitalizing the second "chuck" in the username coincidence or purposefully done.

Who was Federal Conservative Ag Minister in the early stages of the WheatBoard being dismantled?

None other than Chuck Strahl. Who was running for a chair as a Farmer Director at that time? Kyle Kornychuk.

At times printed media almost made it seem like a chuk versus Chuck battle.

As the infamous Alf Bryan used to say: "I may be wrong, but...."

I think the subliminal message was to chuck Chuck Strahl.

I can only come close to hating one person on this planet and she doesn't post here.
Ignoring someone is better than doing something unprofitable.
I agreed with some of Chuck's posts and he opened his own self up to the vitriol.
Good on everyone here who's so multi gifted they've never avoided an annoyance.
I can personally testify that I do send certain phone numbers straight to voice mail. You may have my ex wives numbers go to yours if you like.
No shortage of sanctimonious pricks on here.

You both need to quit quarantine drinking. You're talking stupid shit. Next you'll be voting Liberal.

Go follow him on FB. Then you can bask in his socialist wisdom. Maybe he'll send you an NFU hat.

There's a quarantine drinking?
Funny how I've been the in crowd all along.

My opinion would be it's no ones place to expose someone else if they want to be anonymous, for that you are wrong. But by the same token, I think that there is way too much name calling and inappropriate statements on here that would be restrained if real names were used. I use my initials, and really dont care if anyone knows who I am, would stand behind anything I've posted and generally have been non-confrontational. I think it may be an overall better conversation with real names. I do value and respect the guys that have been "all in" like Errol, using his real name, while also operating a business in the ag field. (Others too, just off the top of my head)

GDR, I always appreciate what you have to say when you post. Always polite, informed and considerate, so I value you weighing in here.

But back to my original question, does that right extend to public figures?

If your MP joined Agriville(or any other social media, with somewhat wider appeal) during an election campaign under a false identity, to campaign for him/herself, and sling mud at the competitors, spreading lies, then deny their true identity when confronted, how would the voters respond? To me, that isn't the type of ethics and morals I expect in an elected official. This is really no different, this poster has been using this as a pulpit to preach the gospel of the CWB, while denigrating his opponents while denying his actual identity.
