Roachboy, I can't properly express over this electronic medium how incredibly irritated I become when you, as you do in very literally EVERY post you make, say something equivalent to:
"This thread is very interesting because it shows the irrational, infantile thought process used by the lumpenconservatives. Notice how they alter the terms of the debate by inserting their dogmatic loyalty to conservative talking points in place of reality."
I haven't the faintest idea why this is permitted. Your contributions to this forum are nothing more than clever, longwinded, typographically incorrect INSULTS of conservatives at large. You repeat over and over that conservatives are irrational and that their arguments are "idiotic", all the while refraining from offering counterevidence.
I am concerned that the moderators have not seen through your trick of couching personal insults inside of dense language. But honestly, you are killing debate, not only on this thread, but on the rest of the politics board.
We had a very civil debate in progress here until you stepped in and refered to conservatives and their arguments as "goofy", "tiresome rehearsal", "false binary", "cartoon", "tedious rhetorical move", "narrows your vision", "mythology", "idiotic", "depressing to see", "narrow and uninteresting", "swim about in circles", "total lack of information".
Let me be clear:
I will not engage in conversation in forums where this sort of insulting behavior is permitted. Period.
