The weak "you've stated opinions of the wrong tribe in other discussions, therefore nobody should believe you" character attacks are a boring waste of time. Please respond to the comment at hand; digging through post history to find character attack material really isn't great on multiple levels.
- scrollaway 10y agoI didn't say "nobody should believe" the poster, I said I'm seeing a pattern. And I didn't have to dig deep, it's quite literally the last three comments the poster made. When I'm replying to someone, I very often look at their other comments. It gives me more context about who they are, how they think, and more often than not leads me to other interesting articles. It's an exercise I recommend.
- joenot443 10y agoAbsolutely fair - but to bring up their past comments in a debate you're having with them is extremely tacky, in my opinion. Part of the reason discourse on this website is considered so much better than reddit is that it's generally considered poor form to dig through users past comments.
