Hi. I PM’d you back in April to which you replied back politely and we both agreed about the topic at hand. I appreciated your informed responses.

You’re free to disclose my emails to anyone you like.

As noted prior, I (and others - believe that or not) have taken to keeping a list of posters who make claims but who refuse to provide references or citations for such claims. The growth of “prove the claim that I made” posters is detrimental because it leads to zany claims being made about any number of subjects without providing evidence to support those claims. It’s intellectual laziness.

Why make a list? Because there are so many posters who engage in that behavior about topics such as vaccinated individuals becoming magnetized, or military tribunals being held in the White House, or mass arrests of journalists taking place, or military firefights with the CIA, or advocating the overthrow of the USG, etc. The list helps to remind who is lazy and to take care regarding any claims they make.

Thread “spats” are fine, it’s part of the healthy discussion about topics. But more and more these threads chase away discussion by making personal comments about posters with which there are disagreements. Especially the COVID-19 threads. So any nuggets are useful information get overwhelmed by the vitriol.

Your unsolicited PM to me contains another poster's name, so no, I won't release it to the board. Also, in the future please keep all conversation with me on the open forum, no more PMs. About your (and others) list keeping and collaboration, please don't include me in any such group. I'll discuss whatever I post man-to-man, even if sometimes it means defending myself from innuendo and blatant misinformation.
