Hey admin Nicole

[sk_wheatking]

The personal attacks, wing nut theories (on all sides) and childishness is why I quit wasting my time here.

Agronomy, [ag]tech, and business sure... But not all this political bullshit and personal attacks.



I haven't been here in a year. Coming back, well...That's 20 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

I was asking where you were, I missed seeing you around and reading your insight into things. I thought maybe you were really busy with your new family. I know how that can be. Hopefully everything is going good for you!

I see you have selective amnesia . You can go back almost 20 years and look at all the posts about marketing during the cwb days.Only recently has the dark shadow from south of the border overwhelmed anything we do here . From threats during NAFTA negotiations to cutting off PPE, there has been a push to marginalize Canada.

Treudo's pacific rim tour a few years back did a damn good job of marginalising Canada and when fort McMurray burned down Treudo cut off US jyprock imports so a quebec company could make a killing. Well Trump twacked the little prick on the back of the head and put an embargo on Canadian plywood.

Yup pretty much sums it up

Since after reading all of this thread, Chuck still believes that the reason he is so universally detested, is because he has a different opinion, then there is no hope of reconciling.
Posters on all sides are pointing out the problem is that he is intolerant, narcissistic, arrogant, intolerant, ignorant, rude, know-it-all, dogmatic, intolerant, ideological preachy, talks down to everyone, narrow minded, self important, pompous, egotistical, intolerant, pretentious, high and mighty, intolerant, a blow hard, and did I mention intolerant and preachy.
Somehow blaithin and big wheel and horse and grassfarmer etc manage to have opinions closer to yours, and we get along fine.
For a guy who is constantly preaching about tolerance, you don't seem to have a clue About what it actually is

I can certainly understand why you are frustrated. You keep digging yourself a deeper hole. So when things aren’t going well you have always regressed to personal attacks instead of backing up your ideas with evidence. But when there is no evidence what can you do?

BTW You missed a few negative things in your Long and extensive list! And you have never said an unkind word to anyone on Agrisilly! Haha. Always thoughtful, constructive and reasonable! That’s our A5, defending us from socialists and trolls!

Let us know when you come up with some Credible science to back up your dubious claims about CO2 and climate change, and renewable electricity! We are still waiting!

[fjlip]

And rest of us are waiting for you to STFU, go stew in your climate change/TRUMP misery. We don't give a SH*T what your peer reviewed evidence is! There is a lot more to life than FEAR/DOOMSAYING!

Yeah Agrisilly is pretty much a waste of time and a distraction from what’s important. I will agree with you on that.

[AlbertaFarmer5]

I don’t need Blaithins help, thanks for your concern.

Since when Does anyone on social media need advice on what to post? It’s the age of instant communication And feed back, speak first ask questions later.... trumps tweets and all that ! You got keep up there Mallee the age of polite respectful discourse is over! Trump has changed the world, now we can say whatever we want! LMAO

Actually, most of us consider that to be an advantage of this medium vs real live face to face talking. Here we get a chance to read our words back before hitting post. And after some sober second thought, we delete, or edit. Never get that option in real life. Might want to try it sometime.

So if you have not been here for a year, how do you know both sides"sic" have wing nut theories. I don't necessarily disagree with you assessment. I would attribute the wing nuts theories to a few individuals . If I have posted a wingnuts theory please correct me. I will stand corrected.

I liked seeing your post the other day.

It was like a surprise in a Christmas stocking!

Anyway, I’ve got cows to talk about. Time to go cherry pick some other threads to read.

[AgrivilleAdmin]

Malle, We can set up a Politics forum to keep those discussion separate. But users will have to use it and keep the politic threads out of commodity forum.

Also, the personal attacks have to stop. These threads go sideways quick.
There's a user block feature or users can choose not to reply to someone.

An Australian complaining there is to much political discussion on a farmer chat line that originates in Canada.

Now that that's out of the way, the world can concentrate on solving World Peace, the Covid Vaccine, World Hunger, and most importantly Canadian farmers receiving a fair price for their commodities.

I can sleep well to night!!!

Thank you. But I think some threads will degrade into political crap anyway.

[the big wheel]

Back in the day as in like pre covid which seems like a very long time, when neighbors could chat in person over a coffee. What would we all discuss? There’s no way we d sit and spend our whole conversation about why canola is not higher every day we met. This is no different I think the variety and the personality behind the posts of each poster is what brings so many contributors to the site. Look at the other headings number of posts? If you spread it out no one is going to take the time even though maybe in theory we all should to flip through every topic and reply. If someone doesn’t know that politics whether it’s our own or in the USA or in Europe where ever we do trade with or compete with for markets is not an important issue then you’re actually missing a great deal of what is part of our actual lives in commodity marketing and everyday other things that effect our farms.

As far as personal attacks well our livelihoods are personal and rhe things that affect all of us are personal. The odd jab back and forth hopefully thrown in with a bit of humour sarcasm again makes things interesting, if you come in here and call someone a derogatory word each day and contribute nothing much more then yes give a warning or outright ban that person. But otherwise the thing that keeps people here in the commodity thread is that it’s real not just facts it’s personal. Jmo
