Message:: [QUOTE="DonnaML, post: 7693640, member: 110350"][USER=91461]@Ryro[/USER], of course I can't be sure of anything because I haven't met her, but based on our exchange of a few private messages, I believe that Blake is who she says she is. I do not believe she is one of our old trolls, or even a new troll! Conversely, [USER=273]@Gam3rBlake[/USER], I am very confident that Ryro is niether homophobic nor transphobic. I do strongly disagree with Blake's statements about a Germany that would have been the master of Europe not being a threat to the USA or its interests, and with the idea that the USA didn't emerge from the war in a far more powerful position than before it -- after paying far less of a price than any of the other major combatants. The "narrowness" has to do with her understanding of the word "threat." But all of that has nothing to do with her identity. All of this is wholly apart from the issue of what happened or should have happened with gold in the 1970s. Not something I care about.[/QUOTE]
