<There is no law against being a boor.>

There is clearly also no law against being a lamebrain.

But you know your accusation that I condescend to you?

It's true, oh god, I confess it, it's true. I try not to, but it appears to be logically impossible for me to engage with you without condescending!

So let's try taking another tack:

You try to raise your level of discourse!

Good idea?

Start with not tossing out insults and making assertions that have no foundation and no support and for which there is no evidence. IOW, don't say things unless you have some reason you can present for saying them. Feelings are not reasons. Crankiness is not support. Hate is not evidence.
