Peter Dawson - your post #162 contains ad hominems against another member, such as "I'm guessing you went public as a moon hoax proponent after you retired, and not before. Am I right, Professor Fetzer?"
Your post #18 in this thread began: "You are a sorry old sack of shit, Fetzer." You were warned about this at the time.
You have continued to deliver ad homs, and to engage in crude baiting, thoughout this thread.
Rules 14 and 15 of DPF state:
14. Our fundamental objective is for DPF to be an arena where research can be seriously discussed, and thoroughly refuted if appropriate, without name-calling or member abuse. It is acceptable to be robust and even dismissive of the arguments of other members, if analysis and evidence are provided. It is acceptable to state that a particular argument serves the agenda of the powerful, again if analysis and evidence are provided. However, since DPF is primarily intended as an arena where serious informed research can be developed and debated, it is not acceptable to describe another member as, for instance, an agent provocateur.
15. The deep politics forum is not an arena for the right and the left to bait each other. There are plenty of forums on the internet for keyboard warriors to call political opponents names, or to post crude propaganda.
DPF will close the membership of any poster whose rationale, as revealed through their posts, is to engage in crude political baiting, and who shows no understanding of, and no desire to learn, about deep politics.
This is, and will remain, the deep politics forum.

You have also made entirely false allegations against DPF itself, by writing: "None of the agenda of a forum like the DFP is compromised by having moon mission believers among its members, that I can see, but I would put it to you that the general agenda of a place like the DPF is clearly at risk of being compromised if belief that the missions were faked becomes a prerequisite to being considered above suspicion at this place - to say nothing of the prospect of it becoming a prerequisite to remaining a member here."
DPF encourages informed discussion and exploration of deep political matters, as described in Rule 14 above. There is no "official DPF position" on the reality or otherwise of the moon landings.
Members of DPF seek the truth about matters such as this, and that search is best encouraged by robust and honest debate. However, in this and other threads, there is absolutely no place for ad hominems or for strawmen designed to damage the integrity of this forum and its members.
Peter Dawson - you are now banned from this forum.
