re: #308 Aceofwhat?

We need to evaluate analysis on the basis of the analysis, with the source in the back of our minds as a possible explanation if we indeed find the analysis to be flawed.

With a few lunatic exceptions (e.g. white supremacists, etc), refusing to consider an analysis solely on the basis of its source is a practice that will do much to widen and harden the gaps between many of the opinions here and elsewhere.

Morning Aceofwhat! I think you’re right on. And there’s someone else who’d agree with you:

The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes.
