I never said Galloway denied the Holocaust.

Even assuming that what you said is true, its still doesn’t justify him working with people like Naz Kahn. Just because people have been spreading false hoods about him and he’s not a holocaust denier himself, how does that excuse this?

It doesn’t excuse it, and of course you never said Galloway denied the Holocaust—no one did—that’s a straw man. Lunging out of the shadows to assault the unsuspecting with personal insults and Gish Gallop flurries of ankle-biting, then angrily demanding that his/her hastily constructed straw men be defended is cinesimon’s preferred tactic.

As far as I can tell, this is reserved exclusively for the Pages where there’s less chance of immediate pushback or a massive group pile-on, both of which would require more more substance & mental agility than simply spewing vituperative nonsense and then running away. Attempting to engage such a person in an honest discussion is a fool’s errand, IMO.
