This article makes for an uncomfortable, but interesting read. There is no doubt that during the Referendum campaign, things could get very heated on forums , and after the Referendum, people were angry, and there was a degree of abuse towards those who voted No. Time has passed, and there is an Election ahead of us. We need to re-think our approach, those No voters need to be converted, the last thing we need is them falling for spin from the Labour Party. The Labour Party is, unfortunately, far from dead... They are re-organising and re-branding themselves. Jim Murphy... No matter what we all think of him, is an accomplished survivor and manipulator. If we are to convince the electorate to vote for genuine Pro-Independence Parties , then our movement has to have some discipline. Dont give the Labour Party and the media the ammunition to shoot us down in the eyes of the Electorate. When discussing politics online, in forums, and in tweets, try to discuss in a civilised manner... Without getting angry and abusive. Our opponents WANT you to be abusive...they will BAIT you....they want to be able to show that the angry Cybernats are abusive fanatics, they need to scare the voting public away from us. Being angry and abusive in discussions merely plays into their hands. If you really feel that you cant handle a discussion without being abusive, then dont get involved in discussions.... Its that simple. But dont do their work for them ......they are lying in wait for us. Keep it sensible...... We have a job to do.
