The definition of a child acting like a brat is this post from Dale Baker who banned me from his left wing thread (ridiculously named "View From the Center").

Message 26026807

The fact is I followed all the rules of his thread, and was repeatedly attacked by left wing posters, while Dale at times openly cheered the attacks and violations of his own thread rules.

I believe it's an SI TOU violation to ban someone from a thread, while simultaneously slandering them in repeated public posts. But for a child like Dale, it's just his style.

Funny thing is I realized Dale may have a difficult time reading my posts on his board, so on more than one occasion I wrote and told him if wanted me to stop posting on his board, to just ask via pm and I would gladly leave. Unfortunately, his need for attention and need to stand on a soap box got the better of him.

I suspect his teenage like behavior is linked to his frustration and inability to muster a logical argument in support of the many hard left positions he defends on a routine basis. Cognitive dissonance often frustrates ideologues.
