How has it "worked" though ?

It's a campaign with the intention to achieve a goal.

Has the goal been achieved ?

We're discussing what a load of idiots the people suggesting this are. I'm not sure that was their point.

depends dunnit? If the blacknose people really wanted and expected a reshoot/edit of the video yes they've so far (and will probably continue to) failed. If however they wanted to get people to notice and discuss cmd being a duplicitous **** they've succeeded.

Depends on how realistic they are of course but I'm guessing option 2 was their real aim.

Are 'we'? Not much of a consensus if that's the case.

Let's stop all campaigns. Unless the end goals are achieved, they're all essentially pointless.

I hadn't realised consensus was required for a discussion.

Which suggests everyone on the thread thinks they're a load of idiots (ie a consensus). Which they don't. Hence the 'Are we?' question.

We're discussing what a load of idiots they are. Some think they are. Some think they aren't. We're discussing it.

Did I really have to explain that?

That would be discussing whether they are idiots or not. Do I really have to explain the difference to you?

And maybe icksnay on the old condescensionay there, Chet.

If you're going to nit-pick, you need to be clearer yourself. And consider using "whether" instead of "what".

EDIT: too slow. Nothing unusual there. 😐

Not me who started the nit-picking, bravissimo. What a load of idiots they are (alternatively, isn't CMD a vile self-serving tit, what a warmonger Bliar is), discuss.

Though actually, as is the STW way, we now seem to be discussing what it was we were discussing.

🙄

Read the OP again. Mention idiots at all? Mention whether they have a point?
