Will Beback's passive-aggressive approach, and Cberlet, just plain aggressive Options

[Herschelkrustofsky]

Get a load of this. Note how deftly Will avoids addressing the actual issue at hand.

Listen, Chip Berlet is a professional political writer dedicated to "exposing" Lyndon LaRouche. Which amounts to writing highly charged journals demonizing the bloke. Here he writes that LaRouche is a "fascist demagogue". Dennis King is similarly a professional writer who compares LaRouche to Hitler in a variety of loosely sourced attack pieces. They spend their lives on this.

These guys -- especially Berlet -- have been controlling the articles on LaRouche for several years now.

Anyone who can't see this Conflict Of Interest and why this has caused so many problems is out of their minds.

The LaRouche articles form an axis of several areas, including the whole Overstock thing, where individuals with blatant conflicts of interest parked up and began OWNING the information they wanted the world to read. Carefully ingratiating themselves with powerful admins to easier bully off other editors who try and salvage / neutralize the biased content.

That's an interesting observation. In the past 24 hours there is a sudden spate of edits on LaRouche-related topics by User:John Nevard, who seems to be thick with both the Gary Weiss sock drawer and the MONGO brigade.

John Nevard closely follows what goes on here, and likes to do things to get WR's attention, right John?

For example, during Mantanmoreland's arbcom proceedings, much was made about MM and SH's edit summaries using the phrase 'as per' and the space hyphen hyphen space separator. Having never used either before, he began to do so and continues doing so.

Also, he's the only other person to use SV's useful links box.
