That is a lie. Sakowski only aided Stan and John in setting up the echo and
getting it on the backbone. He stayed on as moderator for a while but then
stepped down and let Stan and John take full control ove3r the echo.
Sakowski never intended to be moderator.

I don't know if Sakowski was ever banned from ALL-POLITICS, but if he was,
it was never while he was moderator.

Yet another lie. It was created as an alternative to POLITICS when
Bloomberg went nuts. It was not created to "pull posters out" of
POLITICS, but as another echo in which to discuss politics.

Klahn grabbed it up precisely because he had been banned from it and wanted
to retaliate against those he hates. He is eaten up with hatred.

After he snagged the echo he decided to use it as a place for him to import
threads from other echoes he is banned in and "refute" them. It's
quite hilarious watching him engage in one way conversations.
