We = They = ?

It seems you want to make a 'they' versus 'us' argument. Who is 'us' and who is 'they', specifically?

Nemesio: "No prob! I've come to think about your approach some and it looks like we've been dealt a forced hand here. No kid gloves with Ivanhoe! "

No no, ivanhoe's post makes perfect sense. We = they = opponents of censorship on RHP. Now obviously, the opponents of censorship's deepest desire right now is to slap a gagging order on ivanhoe so he can't express his opinions. That's what makes us such hypocrites. He's got us with the good old toleration paradox, and you can't say fairer than that.

I'll leave it to ivanhoe to replace my makeshift straw man with something more substantial.

Did anyone see me encourage pcaspian to get more pump time in on RHP?

Nemesio: "Yup. At that time I believed it, so I was waiting for hell to break loose.

I'm sure he couldn't divine the meaning of the post (as it makes no sense without bbarr's fantasy).

It was a post for the Conspirator's benefit.

I have never and would never call for Ivanhoe's gagging. I've never alerted any of his posts (to my knowledge or recollection).

Ivanhoe's entitled to his opinions. I would just love to understand them, in this case.
