I think just about everyone here gives everyone else a chance, whether they agree with their views or not. But everyone has limits, right?

Besides, She (ZZZ) doesn't care if you care about her. She's just here to keep tabs on me after I rejected her 12 years ago.

Question. Why does this thread exist and why is it posted here? I mean, how is this related to politics? All this thread seems to be about is provoking some kind of internet drama.

And here I was thinking that internet drama was mostly for angsty teenagers. Though I have to say Sarge does a great job at impersonating an angsty teen in this thread.

Therefore, as they always do: They 'Ignore' (AKA attempt to censor) others. As if anyone, outside of their 'Intellectual Monastery' would care.

This small group cares. No one else does.

And there you go again, complaining about getting censored. Except no one censors you here. At worst, they ignore you because you are the intellectual equivalent of a wet blanket. Otherwise, they criticize you for saying dumb, offensive, racist or just ignorant nonsense.

Of course, having the intellectual capacity of a wet blanket, you cannot respond to any actual criticism, so you repeat the same drivel ad nauseam, complaining that you are getting censored by either right wing or left wing intellectuals and how they all follow some kind of agenda. Its so boring. You are so boring. You aren't even trying anymore to actually make a point, to actually engage with other people on the content of their argument. All you try to do is some horrible attempt at character assassination by pretending everyone who you disagree with is part of some political side.

Of course, this will just go right over your head and you will respond in an entirely predictable manner.

Thank you for your Intelligent reply.

RE: Your use of the word 'Intellectuals'. Let me give the following analogy.

You are living in the European Middle Ages. The Brightest, Most Intellectual, and Educated people have gathered inside a Monastery, on top of a mountain. They shut themselves from the World for 20 years. They do acknowledge other Thinking and Cultures. But ignore and deman them. Because they are the Best...

One day, you approach the Monastery, asking for food. They allow you to enter (first outsider in 20 years), and you sit down at the dinner table, listening to their their conversation.

Listening to their 20 years of Cloistered Intellectual Conversation: You begin to realize, they have entered a Fantasy World, as all cloistered persons do.

As your attacking, name calling Post above, and others on your 'World' believe: I am this 'Outsider', who needs to be 'dismissed'. No different from the Monastery, I noted.

Do you understand? No.

Will you understand? No.

I understand that's a load of simplistic bollox.

You think far to highly of yourself if you are this 'outsider' that barges into my ivory tower just to tell me that I'm out of touch. If you think that I haven't heard this whole ivory tower nonsense before you told me about it, and if you think only you are smart enough to see it.

The ivory tower argument is the unintelligent version of an argumentum ad hominem or personal attack fallacy. Rather than actually respond to what the other is saying, you simply try to dismiss the argument because the person making the argument 'its out of touch'. I suppose this is what people who are deeply insecure about their own level of intelligence do to protect their own flimsy egos. This way they can pretend that all the people that are smarter than them are 'out of touch' and therefor can safely be ignored, while the user of the argument is just of the right level of smart to not be out of touch, making them the smartest persons in the room. Its kinda pathetic.

If people have a different view than me, but actually try to argue their point of view using some of form of logical argument or by providing proof for their point of view, I can respect that, even if they don't convince me of their point of view. And they respect me enough by not just dismissing my view as out of touch, but by actually forming a sort of counter view.

You on the other hand, are an intellectual coward who I cannot respect. Not because I disagree with you on almost everything, but because you only dismiss other peoples views as 'out of touch' without actually bothering to engage with them. And worse, not only do you completely ignore the other persons point of view by pretending its out of touch and therefor irrelevant, you don't even come up with an argument of your own. Everyone is wrong about everything, but you don't have any answers for yourself either.
