I'll be the first to say that I am no longer trying to debate these morons. I have tried....quite pursuasively & eloquently but I have learned that once you defeat an individual 5 with logic....he scatters off to another thread and begins to post the same reasoning all over again to some other person who is then forced to knock him down....this continues until the 5s have been able to craft a position out of the percieved rebuttals.
They have attached their identities to their opinions to the point that they simply cannot allow for their opinions to get shot down....if that happens, their identity goes down with it. It is sad and surely not honest debate.
I will do everything in my power to mock these drips from here until kingdom come. I wont be casting my pearls before swine by trying to have debates with them.
In the end...that is all most of them want anyway on account of their contrarian character.
The 42s. Hahaha....we are 42s.
Check it out...
The Conservatives beat the Dopesmokers 42 to 5
I like it.
So you admit you want no debate, and are happily spamming threads in order to shut them down.
And no moderator is stepping in to stop this clearly disruptive behavior.
NOT the Free Republic *I* remember.
If mocking drips til kingdom come is your personal crusade then I guess we will all just have to endure you. It certainly isn't what I want from you, and I am as cynical a contrarian as you're ever likely to find.
I hope no one is nearby when your ego/identity blows up, for it will be an ugly and pathetic mess.
Thing is, you could say this about anyone who posts any strong opinion here. I don't, for example, see posters on the "crevo" threads changing their positions due to the years-long debate over uncountable threads.
In the end...that is all most of them want anyway on account of their contrarian character.
Is there something inherently wrong with expressing an opinion that is not in synch with the majority?
