Yes, I can.
That doesn't mean I will.
As I said before, I like discussions abou particular topics, but not discussions that revolve around what any one forum member thinks about some other forum member in total, or as a person.
It's one thing to say "I disagree with Joe's thinking about this, or about that."
It's an entirely different thing to say "I don't like Joe." Or "Joe is this (or that) kind of person." Or "Joe is hiding something." Or "Joe ought to be taking my advice on how to be Joe." Or "Joe is a drooling moron." These statements take the forum into a space where (IMO) it shouldn't ever be.

I think a pretty good guess would be the same as a list of those who have been banned this year.[This message has been edited by williegoat (edited 12-12-2020).]

Lol, the pic. It's funny because it's true. Are all of them gone yet?

I knew you couldn't, which was the test.

And while you say you don't do it, you just went into a complete sermon of how a person should and should not behave and interact. What a fascinating position you've illustrated. Fascinating straw-man situation.

See those high-lighted parts? Thanks for commenting on my behavior. It seems you meant to take part in what you say you don't do.
The politics and religion discussions are accurately warned about in that they alienate people either directly or indirectly. We enjoy the discussions and expressing ourselves but those drawbacks...[This message has been edited by sourmash (edited 12-12-2020).]
