I'm not so sure if their ignorance can be helped, so it probably doesn't matter either way how I talk to people. But being respectful certainly can't be a bad thing, even among idiots talking about utter nonsense. What I really wanted is for someone to call me an idiot when it was warranted. Unfortunately the only people who have raised their voices are the biggest cretins of this forum, [1st place] globetrotter, [2nd place] well-informed, [3rd place] erikheaven, and the way they called me out didn't satisfy! It wasn't about my logic, more about my perceived character, or the subject (not the content) of my posts. Cheap shots about "faggot" this and "negativity" and "conspiracy theorist" that, spawning largely from rationalizations which smack of self-guilt and denial, though occasionally petty grudges too.
So in conclusion I'd like to say, admitting to yourself once in a while that you're a f***ing jackass is a healthy exercise and I'd like to ask you slightly less dim-witted posters to call me on my bullshit more often and in a less.. Confucian.. manner.
