I've argued and debated with people for decades. I sometimes find people who are intelligent, knowledgeable, and rational... but more often I find people like you.

You strike me as a person that has no idea how much stuff you don't know, but which you ought to know if you intend to be arguing with someone like me.

You also strike me as a person who is content to remain ignorant. Indeed, to glory in your ignorance. You are content to see trees without seeing a forest. You are someone for whom the little picture is sufficient, and if you can't see beyond it, for you, it doesn't exist.

Why should I waste any effort trying to reason with such a person as I perceive you to be? You aren't amenable to reason, and don't even seem to have the tools for it.

I see your name on other threads from time to time, and invariably you have taken the idiot side of whatever argument is then in progress. I generally refrain from engaging you because I perceive the effort to be futile. Like trying to teach a monkey to do math or something.

Usually I just ignore you, but this last time I thought I might persuade you by giving you several obvious examples of how you were wrong.

I should have known, of course, that you lacked the knowledge or the wit to grasp any of the examples. You probably hadn't heard of all of them before I mentioned them to you. Which brings us back to this.

You don't have a sufficient knowledge base to argue with me.

You may regard what I said as an "insult" but from what I can see, it is just a simple statement of fact.

Maybe out in the world you can debate. On the internet you’re just a flame war junky troll who can’t be bothered to put together a statement without insults.

And then you go on for a long diatribe of boring pathetic insulting crap.

Really you could save everybody time if you’d just man up, and admit you have no facts or logic to back your position, because your position is plainly wrong. I countered all your points and all you can muster is insults.

We all know you’re wrong.
