Wow I just read this whole thread and I'm getting quite a bit of deja vu. These are my thoughts and they are just thoughts and nothing more I'm not trying to tell people what to do or anything like that.
I believe Yonadav is first and foremost trolling for effect, this is from my experience of him on TTA, then on AD and now here on AF. On all three forums he has displayed and behaved in similar ways, there is absolutely no doubt in my mind the dude is a hardcore misogynist, his atrocious behaviour towards Aliza on TTA is testament to that, but I don't think he is racist though as I've never seen anything that leads me to think he is, unless I've missed something major which is possible.
On TTA he got off to a bad start but he did settle down after a bit and became quite affable, I got on quite well with him for a while until he reverted to old behaviour leading me to think the guy does indeed have some significant psychological issues but..... first and foremost he's a troll and possibly a troll that's addicted to trolling and associated attention seeking behaviours.
He is not being castigated and called out just because he holds controversial opinions he's being called out and castigated as a misogynistic disruptive troll who deliberately baits people so he can feed off their reaction and the only way to stop that is
1)Starve him of the oxygen of attention, reaction, publicity etc by ignoring him which on a large forum is difficult to achieve.
2) Place him in special measures or on some form of probation and hope his behaviour improves.
3) Ban him from the forum.
4) Do nothing and accept that he's a member with a shitty attitude.
Personally I think the last option is best, after all you all put up with Dritch and he's at least as poisonous as Yonadav and possibly more so in some ways.
