hiya, 
yup its crap, and this person really irritates me and i get really sick of 
him. but , i think we can deal with it in a more constuctive way.

melbourne indymedia has a good editorial policy:

http://www.melbourne.indymedia.org/edpol.php3

part of which says this:

3. To acknowledge that words have the power to cause injury, but that 
instances of injurious speech or writing should also be seen as opportunities 
for a critical or insurrectionary response. 

thats the direction i would like to see us going in....

heres the article in question BTW, for those who haven't found it:
http://www.indymedia.org.nz/front.php3?article_id=1134&group=webcast

the comments are right at the bottom of the article

the post is not as dodgy as that long stupid white supremicist one a while 
back, which we left and got heaps of interesting debate amnd comments.

clare
