Erolz is way more likely to post anti Cyprus Propaganda so the choice is obvious.

Be pro-Cyprus, not anti greek or anti-turk.

What a ridiculous and pointless poll. You are as stupid as you are intelligent GIG. I voted for you just for the sake of it. In fact you are beyond stupid, you are a raving fucking lunatic. What a fucking waste of a good education.

I explicitly stated what it could be argued I was offering balance against. Namely your "your systematic posting only of 'pro' Greek news and avoidance of any 'anti' Greek news". However you ignore this entirely and just make out that I was in fact offering balance only to the one specific story your had cited. This then is what you do - what you always do. Just ignore the plain and evident to better suit your needs.

Another difference between us GiG is I believe in a world where there will have been and will be those who have showed bravery and compassion and humanity to refugees, regardless of their own nationality, just as there will have been and will be those who have sought to profit from these people's plight and suffering regardless of their own nationality. There will have been and will be Greeks (and Germans and French and on and on) who seek to profit from refugees just as there will have been and will be Turks (and Germans and French and on and on) who have shown bravery and compassion and humanity towards them. You on the other hand believe in, or at least try and systematically portray, a world where only Greeks show bravery and compassion and humanity to refugees and they do so because they are Greek and only Turks, or any other non Greek nationality that you target (like Brits), seek to profit from their suffering because they are Turkish (or other non Greek nationality that you target)

This constant, incessant, relentless barrage from you of 'Greeks are good because they are Greek, Turks are bad because they are Turks' year after year after relentless year is tiring, depressing and frustrating, to me at least. When you combine this with the way you then will systematically deny and distort and just ignore actual reality in your attempts to support such a world view and the sheer amount of time you have been doing this here, well that is why I despise the way you behave here so much more than any other single poster.

I post my opinions and if you despise that it says a lot about you.

I have had so many personal attacks and I've never resorted to *despising*. I never forget there are people behind the posts and they have the right to post their opinions. However, when, like you, they post lies, they should expect to be quizzed and asked for evidence.

It is my pursuit against you for posting lies that you despise, then.

"Note: Your vote in this poll is NOT confidential. Your username will be displayed under the option(s) you select"

Wow! I never knew there was such an option regarding the polls of this forum!
Nice trap! :mrgreen:

Read what I actually wrote for once and not what you would have liked me to have written. I specifically made clear that I did not despise you, but your behaviour here. There is a difference. I do not know you to be able to despise you as a person. I do know how you have consistently behaved here for well over 10 years now and I do despise that (feel contempt and repugnance for it). I despise the behaviour of consistently denying or ignoring or distorting truth with the sole purpose of trying to promote a world view that boils down to "Greeks are good because they are Greek and Turks (or select others as need arises) are bad because they are Turks". I despise it because every fibre of my being, intellectual, emotional and every bit of my own person experience of having lived for 50 plus years on this planet screams that such is just not true and what is more it is not just not true it is a fundamentally divisive and destructive world view.

Just yet another small example of the frustration of trying to interact with you here GiG. Me despising your behaviour here (and the relentless consistency and persistence of that behaviour) is nothing to do with you 'pursuing me for lying' and everything to do with the above.
