Instead from their beginning of their "battle" it has been malfeas99 trying to point out and exploit djmaddmartin's "stupidity".

Although i do believe you have the right to express your own opinion, and you once again pointed out the fact that this is a political forum, I just don't see any point in the "conversation" they are carrying. I enjoy a political debate just as much as the next guy but If you are going to talk politics... then ACTUALLY talk politics. Half of the shit in this thread i wouldnt say to my worst enemy if we were having such a discussion.

Whatever though. I have no further interest in this thread.

Best,

I have to point out and exploit djmaddmartin's stupidity because since I have been a member, all he has done is contribute the most pointless, absurd, ignorant, regurgitated crap I've had the pleasure of hearing outside of dedicated political websites and forums.

Since he is actually incapable of a structured, rational discussion, this is all I can really do.

You are right, that people can express their opinions all they like. But opinions are not created equal, and if you express one that is founded on irrational, factually incorrect, and otherwise easily refutable bases, then it is going to get torn down, and you will get ridiculed for it.

We are not born knowing how to think. One has to learn how to think... and that's the problem. Nobody bothers learning how to actually think.

This is the internet, Cramer. It's been a very large part of my day-to-day life for a long time now, and due to that, my BS limit is extremely low. If someone barges onto a forum (as DJ has done since day 1) and starts spouting off retarded regurgitated garbage, they're going to be exposed for what they are: pointless wastes of bytes and oxygen. People tend to be more curt, less courteous, and meaner on the internet, especially when arguing... and especially if they have history. Don't take it personally. I don't.

My tone with people who are civil is similarly civil. If you and I find ourselves in another thread without DJ and we exchange opinions politely, then that's the way it will stay.

DJ has earned nothing but enmity from me and just about everyone else on this board, and has done or said NOTHING to earn respect for his point of view or intellectual capacity. Until that changes, in this arena, he will continue to be treated as he deserves.
