In fact, it might be said that aaj is an experimental training ground for how to bully dissenters.

Well, the WC defenders are the 'more equal animals'.  The dissenters have to live with that.

Sometimes it can be frustrating keeping those WC defender blinders firmly in place.

The irony, to me, is that is should not matter if one is a WC defender or dissenter. What matters is that one is able to posit a cogent argument about their position.  The slant McAdams imposes on this field seems to preclude that.  As a result, it is tough for a discussion to move forward.  The emphasis is on discrediting the dissenter.

Of course, anyone who has no choice but to resort to fallacy is demonstrating a very weak position.  So, we can infer that McAdams has had to create a slanted field on aaj because he knows LHO did not act alone, if at all, in the assassination.

If there is a silver lining, perhaps this is it.
