I respond in-kind. Keeps your posts to reasonable lengths, and mine will follow.

That is very “civil” of you, Joe. Does that mean you will no longer compare me to a holocaust denier when you cannot defend your worldview? We shall see.

Child.
Mr. Kalamata
When you stop responding like those Holocaust deniers I remember from near 20 years ago, then I'll stop calling you on it.
That's the reason I posted "Denier Rules", so you can clearly see, with your own good eyes, what you are doing.
My intention is that you will study and commit my "Denier Rules" to your memory, and then consciously, deliberately break those rules in every post.
If you just avoid following those "Denier Rules" it will take you a long ways toward becoming a decent, honest person, and not just a scumbag propagandist.
Start now.
