> > I will note that in a recent, separate discussion you resorted to insults and vulgarity. > Hard disagree. It's not a matter of opinion. You literally resorted to insults and vulgarity. Do I need quote your words back to you? > who was lecturing other people about the politics in their country while living in a different country. I No, I was someone pointing our your arguments were bad. Out of the two of us, I'm the only one who has lived in both countries, and my arguments were not fallacious. > I remember from that conversation that you considered your own opinion irrefutable regardless of any evidence presented This is certainly ironic given you engaged in whataboutism and your evidence was shown to be flawed for the points you were trying to make. > so it’s no surprise to learn here that you also consider your opinion to be objective and infallible. I think you are bad at reasoning your points and you ignore objective evidence. My opinion isn't infallible, but the reasoning and evidence to support it is better than what you are relying on to support yours. > If I’d clicked you were the same person I wouldnt have bothered replying and just downvoted you like others had. Funny, I suspected you only started the discussion you did because you had recognized I was the same person. But, whatever - let's just not engage with each other anymore? I'm here for productive discussion, if we are clashing to a point that isn't possible I would rather us just both avoid each other.

  I find it absolutely astounding you deny you engaged in vulgarity and insults, for the same reason I find MAGA folk astounding when they deny reality. Unless for some reason you don't consider saying 'Bullshit'[1] vulgarity - I assume that would be your defense, and indeed I would perceive that to be disingenuous since it clearly is, in the sense it lowers the quality of and taints an otherwise civil conversation. I'd be more curious to hear why you don't think calling my comment idiotic[1] is resorting to insults - that seems harder to deny, so I wonder what creative justification you might come up with? > So let's just not engage with each other anymore? 100%. If you want to reply just to note you in fact do not consider saying 'Bullshit' vulgarity' or defend how calling a comment idiotic is not resorting to insults, I'll understand and might respond to that. If we are not discussing operating systems or problems with countries, I consider that a win since that thread would run its course very shortly, then we could be done with each other. Of course if you don't want to reply at all I'll consider that an even bigger win. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43064306 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43064306

    Now who's being vulgar? (I also disagree with your accusations -- but anyone who's read this conversation can see the evidence for themselves)

        You've insulted me on multiple occasions too. I chose to rise above it. Anyway, I thought you wanted us to part ways?

        > You've insulted me on multiple occasions too. So now you're admitting you insulted me after previously denying that you had? I never called you an idiot, I stuck to facts and explained why I thought you were wrong. > Anyway, I thought you wanted us to part ways? If you read above, I said that if you must reply to this final thread that at least it will be over quickly, and that I will continue to reply to messages as I get notified of them if I feel I need to defend against misinformation (such as you denying you resorted to insults). If you want our interacting to cease sooner, simply resist your urge to reply.
