Hopefully I don't get in trouble for this........................on another outdoor Alaska forum it has become likely that the main moderator, maybe a part owner, might be supporting a certain candidate for the one federal Senate seat from Alaska that is currently up for election. This candidate is probably not the best choice for consumptive wildlife users.
Without getting too much into politics.................would it bother you if someone very connected to, and in control of, an outdoor forum was supporting a politician that "might" be working against our wildlife use.

I've yet to get punished on this forum for anything I have posted.....................maybe this will be my first!!

It would, but as long as they allowed differing opinions to be posted and didnt censor them, it would only bother me in the sense that I would think they were stupid and short sighted. It is when somebody controlling a forum only allows one side to speak that it really annoys me.

The wife is a member of a knitting forum, the owner of it is some sort of transgender married gay and allows all the Trump bashing, pro transgender, anti-religion, rainbow snowflake crowd garbage but will ban anyone that posts an opposing viewpoint. Personally I would leave it and not come back, but she claims that is the only place to find a lot of her knitting patterns.
