See last post for the thrilling conclusion of yesterday.

There are basically three groups of posters on ATPN.. useless demagogues, useful demagogues, and dispassionate observers.
What's a useless demagogue? Anyone who only criticizes "the other side", doesn't criticize "their side" when it does something wrong or stupid, and offers no useful alternatives on issues that are raised here on ATPN.
Contrast with the useful demagogue, who is someone that criticizes "the other side" but also recognizes and mentions the mistakes of "their side", and offers useful alternatives on issues.
This is in no way personal, just an assessment of their posts on this forum.
My list:
Useless Demagogues:
Hacp
Fear No Evil
boomerang
PokerGuy
spidey07
Marlin1975
Patranus

Tristicus
Amused (borderline, though.. is occasionally useful)

Useful Demagogues:
