I don't. I did one or two times a while ago.

You did many times in this very thread. Most of your posts to me are rude. You're usually attempting to mock me. That's why I tend to just ignore you.

quote:

Again, I do not.

Why would I make this up? We can search your post history and see the posts.

You pile on because it's low hanging fruit. Many posters don't like me because I don't fit neatly into their tribe. You dogpile because they will support you for being rude to me like they are. It's stupid and it's mean. So yeah, the posters you kiss up to think you're great. And the poster you're an a-hole to thinks you're an a-hole.

There is a reason I quit posting on this board, by and large. You know the insults and personal attacks are going to come, you also know you have to ignore them and only speak to anyone responding with substance.

You're right. The board wasn't always this feral. I miss the good ole days!

---

If you really want to try to convince people, you'll have to ignore the trolls and just argue your point. Might not be fair, but it's what it is.

---

I usually do ignore the shitty posts but this thread was not as theoretical and was much more personal to me. I did feed into some of the hostility. I can acknowledge that.

If I go to a left wing board and get bothered because they called me an evil Trump loving racist fascist, among other things, I would never argue with them, I'm outnumbered 100 to 1.

I narrate the experience here. People have an uncritical loyalty to Trump. That's just an observation and isn't even an attack on Trump.

I'm not wasting time going through your post history to link some of your a-hole posts to me.

---

You'd have to go a ways back and definitely not in this thread.

I recall popping off on you once many, many months ago and you were really bothered by it- I've made sure to consider my posts to you thereafter. You are, in fact, the only poster I go out of my way to stay on topic with and studiously avoid even teasing.

You shouldn't accuse people of things you aren't willing to prove. You jump on other posters for much less.

So are you going to tell us what he did or not?

Some non-violent driving offense that he plead guilty to a felony for

Like they always did on law and order.

And notice how this got ignored on the previous page?

And then there is a movement that collectively, nationwide, raised enough money for a certain group that would have been enough money to pave every last mile of interstate highway in the United States with some left over. As much as 220 million alone from a single donor. And there is not so much as a national scholarship fund that has been founded to show for it. No job programs. No youth engagement programs. No assistance programs. No diversion programs. Nothing. The corporate pledged money to this movement alone could have ran the entire state of Mississippi, on this years budget, for 6 and a half years with zero other funding. And they are the "disenfranchised". And here you are, having to teach your students, for what? Where are the organizations that got these billions of dollars that is supposed to be doing that? Hmm?

Yeah, we should really just ignore her.
