Look, you're the moderator and can do as you please. But I did nothing to deliberately distract from the conversation. I was in fact the first to make a declarative statement on the article, not straying at all from the points of the article. It was others who went off topic and distracted from the article, not I.

In the end I saw there were no further comments on the article. I felt the article was nothing but empty propagandising, having no substance or legitamacy whatsoever, which is why I commented that it deserved to be ignored. Just wanted to set that straight.
