HelpRe: Well, I guess we can both be rude, then
in reply to a message by astronomicon
I was not at all rude to you until you were to me. My initial response to you, in which I outlined why I support the monarchy, was not at all rude, but yours in response to it was.
You accused me of being angry, which I had not been when I made my initial response, but that must be a bad case of projection. Because it's evident that the subject of the monarchy makes you so angry that you can't have a civil discussion about it without resorting to insults and ridicule ("eyeballs rolling like a pinball machine" and "your logic sucks.")
No, what I think about the monarchy doesn't have a lot of weight because I'm not a Brit, but that's not as you pointed out. I pointed it out first in my initial response. And no, you can't tell me whom to vote for for President and you don't get to vote for President yourself and maybe you don't care, but guess what? There are a lot of people who aren't American who do care who the President of the USA is, and who do want Americans to understand how their country is perceived by the rest of the world. And if one of them wanted to present their viewpoint to me, whether it were you or someone else, while I might not agree, I would never treat them in the rude, sarcastic, angry, dismissive way that you have treated me, made all the worse by your failure to defend any stance you have taken.
Throughout this discussion, you have either failed to address my points entirely, or done so with a complete lack of logic ("polling and statistics are stupid because I said they are and polls are done this way because I say they are so that means your statistics don't mean anything nyeahhh") or with immature one-word answers. ("Whatever".) And you think I'm talking out my "arse"? And I'm immature? More projection and more irony.
Who am I to tell you you're intolerant? A person who's been a target of your intolerance. And you're not interested in having this discussion with me? Prove it, then. Quit posting your rude, sarcastic point-dodging responses. which are made obviously because you're a person who can't stand not having the last word, even when the last word is "Whatever."
