...."I used to post in a similar manner to you"
First I disagree with that. I contend you continue to attack, demean & ridicule other people. The fact that you refrain from asserting that (insert name here) is (insert personal attack here) changes nothing.
I've noted that you now reply to their post (or indirectly to someone else) & discuss something they've said then attack, ridicule & demean them with broad brush statements - 'anyone who thinks like that is' (insert personal attack here). That is but one of your "nuanced" ways of the same old same old X.
Spin or deny all you want. That's what you do.
Second, you DO NOT "post in a similar manner to" me.
How & why we talk about other people could not be more different. I don't hide or deny what I am doing or why I do it. You steadfastly deny you still do it, albeit you do a decent job of hiding it with nuance, doublespeak, wordsmithing & obfuscation.
Unlike you, I do not deal in perceptions & feelings when I make assertions about others. Unlike you, I do not make unsubstantiated assertions stated as fact. Unlike you, I don't employ sweeping generalizations as a means to attack & ridicule. Unlike you, I don't attack others because I don't like their politics or religious beliefs or because I think they are stupid & unworthy of expressing POV's that aren't in complete lockstep with mine.
I do talk about people who express reality defying POV's, make hypocritical statements or lie, deceive or make false, misleading assertions, or deal in inappropriate or boorish behavior. (These are the main reasons I will talk about other people - that's a fact).
If I claim someone lied, misled, etc., I quote them verbatim & in context, then provide credible evidence that clearly establishes that my assertion is accurate.
If I allege hypocrisy, you can rest assured that I can link you directly to prime examples of it if I haven't done so already.
Notice how you said my bans were based on your baseless, unsubstantiated opinion of my horrific behavior. You were dead wrong, yet that baseless opinion of yours allowed you to attack, demean & ridicule me repeatedly. And somehow you don't consider your repeated, baseless & unsubstantiated personal attacks about me to be personal or attacks.
So feel free to misperceive these undeniable facts all you wish. It won't change what happens right here in the real world. |
