Actually I haven’t taken part in this thread, as like sawfish said, it’s impossible to have a rational argument re Cameron, not because of the dislike (I use the word dislike rather than hatred, my hatred is aimed at BB/Endemol for their blatantly biased editing in favour of Cameron) for him on this forum, but because of the obvious biasness of his fans, who have moved heaven and earth to sweep under the carpet and ignore the patently obvious character faults which he has displayed on numerous occasions within the BB house.
Is Cameron a Decent Guy? Who knows, depends on what is meant by a “decent guy”, I wouldn’t even consider myself a decent guy, average maybe but not decent, I know what my faults are and can quite happily admit to them, unlike some deluded wannabe.
But a decent guy to me doesn’t ignore women in distress, a decent guy doesn’t get involved in all night bitching sessions, a decent guy doesn’t threaten others behind their backs with violence on a number of occasions, a decent guy doesn’t hold anti gay views, a decent guy doesn’t go about deceiving people, could mention eggs, scissors, shower gel, shoes, etc, etc, but I’m sure you get the drift.
Now that’s what I’ve learned from watching him for 9 weeks, what have Cameron fans seen on screen, which override the negative points, that makes them claim he’s a decent guy?
By all means put positive points forward, but those points need to be of substance, not just some fantasy guesswork that leads Cam fans to believe they are positive character traits of Cameron. Just because Cam fans say he’s a decent guy doesn’t mean he is, if Cam fans want people to believe Cameron is a decent guy, then they need to put forward and argue his positive character points, real ones not imagined ones, at the moment all I see are posters arguing on Cameron’s behalf by trying to argue against and dismissing the negative points about his character that have been put forth on this forum, without actually putting a positive point forward. Ie: So far the argument about Cameron’s anti gay views have descended into an argument on interpretations, on what was asked and what was said by Cameron, the more the argument has develops, the more that question and subsequent answer has been twisted, from being asked about whether gay couples should have equal rights, we have ended up with Cameron being asked if he agrees with gay marriages, which are two different questions. No Cameron fan has yet put forward a positive argument that would indicate Cameron has pro gay views, no one has posted anything that would suggest Cameron doesn’t have anti gay views as he stated, as per the bible. You don’t make a positive point by trying to dismiss a negative point as if it hadn’t occurred.
As for the disgruntled Jon fans, I’m getting tired of this, THERE IS A LOT OF PEOPLE HERE WHO DISLIKE CAMERON WHO ARE NOT JON FANS. This constant attempt to blame everything on Jon fans, just seems like a pathetic attempt at deflecting from the truth, that is, you already know that you haven’t got a rational argument to defend the indefensible, so you revert to obscuring the lack of substance in your argument by introducing the “you don’t listen because you’re a biased sore losing Jon fan” line.
I laugh all the time too, because I’m happy at the fact I can see and admit the good points and faults in the HM I liked and therefore have not put them on an over extended pedestal that they don’t belong on, unlike others who are deluded into believing that the HM they have liked, is the most decent, funniest, fit guy in Britain today and can do no wrong. But hey if being deluded makes them happy, then go for it: just don’t expect others to follow blindly like sheep.
