I have no such fear. I just acknowledged a misreading of L'Emmerdeur's (sp?) post the other day and I've many times acknowledged misunderstanding or changing my view.
Torturing the English language again, I see. None of that is admitting that you were wrong. You are too fragile to admit you can be wrong.
Incorrect, and I am sure willfully, intentionally, and disingenuously so. Your entire presentation here is fatuous, inane and vacuous. I have admitted when I am wrong. That's something you likely cannot say. You wouldn't even admit you were wrong after you declared something I wrote to be wrong, after I showed you to be wrong, and you admitted that you had never even read what I wrote. You just went on blathering your usual asinine screeds of invective,as per usual. I suspect it's part of your self-avowed plan to drive people off the forum. That is what you said, remember? You like to drive people off forums, and you've been quite successful at it.

Absolute bullshit. I not infrequently admit I am wrong. This is just another example of how dishonest you are.
LOL "not infrequently." Thank you for admitting that you are "not infrequently" wrong. We can certainly agree on that.

Again (for the third time now; all times un-addressed by you), I have never admitted to declaring a person wrong about something I haven't read. This is just another example of the misrepresentation you get up to. I've made this point to you three times now and you've never addressed it and instead just keep trotting out this lie.
Of course you did. And, I do address your denial -- you're wrong. Not agreeing with you is not a failure to address what you are saying. You are dead wrong. You do this crap all the time. You assign your own meanings to what people say. You misrepresent them by setting out what you think they really mean, rather than going by what they actually say, and you have actually declared me wrong while later making it clear you hadn't even read my post. We've been over that before, and you keep denying it. You also openly declared your mission to drive people off of forums. There is no denying that. It should be very clear to everyone.

:funny: You are off with the fairies. No one believes this for a second.
Naturally, you are claiming to know what's in other people's minds, and to speak for other people. That's another thing you do quite often. That dovetails well with your misrepresentation of other people's views because you know what they "really mean." You claim to know who has empathy and who doesn't. You declare yourself qualified to declare the state of mind of other people, and to know what they're thinking despite what they are actually saying or not saying.

You, however, think you've shown people to be wrong simply by stating your view on a subject.
Bullshit. L'emmy, Hermit and I post both articles and YOUR OWN WORDS that prove you wrong, and you regularly ignore those posts because they are inconvenient to your biased world view.

My attitude about such occurrences was unqualified opposition to the infringement of the right to express an opinion, but recently it has become it has become ambiguous. On the one hand I support it because it riles 42. On the other hand I remain opposed because it launches 42 into yet another lengthy tirade concerning the dangers of freedom it represents. The repetitiousness is a bit akin to the Chinese water torture. Kept up for long enough, the steady drip on the head threatens to send people crazy. I guess 42 sees it differently, of course. He probably regards his walls of texts, read or skimmed over by four or six forum members who end up objecting to most of their content, as his contribution to save the world. The interminable bickering between him and rEv enhances its effectiveness.

To be honest, she's a fucking white idiot who thinks she can dictate to black folk, "How it is".

That said, her idiotic, narrow-minded views should be challenged in a civilised Q&A.

I agree. Let her explain her thesis, such that it is, in public. When debate is closed down like this then the opportunity to challenge it is closed down as well.

Of course you did.
Umm, no I didn't (admit to declaring a person wrong about something I haven't read). I explained this to you last time, and as usual you ignored it because you would have to admit you were lying.

And, I do address your denial -- you're wrong. Not agreeing with you is not a failure to address what you are saying. You are dead wrong. You do this crap all the time. You assign your own meanings to what people say.
What the fuck are you talking about?!? You LITERALLY didn't say anything at all to my correcting you. You didn't respond at all. You really are full of shit. :nono:
You also openly declared your mission to drive people off of forums.
Some people. A certain type of egregiously dishonest people. Sometimes.
There is no denying that.
Who's denying it?! :think: This is just another example of the ridiculous red herrings you engage in. It has absolutely nothing to do with the point that you lied about what I said previously about not reading parts of your posts and that you haven't addressed my points showing how you are lying.

I'm sick of his lying. Here is where he last pulled this lie out and I addressed it. I was responding to Hermit as Hermit went and dug the post up that 42 keeps claiming says I say people are wrong based on what I haven't read. Just before this point 42 said someone else can fetch the post, as he's apparently sick of doing it (LOL). So Hermit did and then directly responded to 42 informing he did. NEITHER 42 nor Hermit responded to my point accusing them of lying. Yet 42 has no shame in continuing to lie above and claim he replied to that post. And we all know this is just going to happen the next time he pulls this stunt. And the time after that. The guy either has no memory, and/or he's a bald-faced liar.
