That's not an insult, it was my opinion based of your posting record.

No a lie is a falsehood. I genuinely think a lot of your responses to those who don't agree with you are shit responses, you might not like that I think that, but I think they are shit responses and I often expect such. However if you are going to reduce your arguments to "lie" whenever you don't agree with something then I can keep trying to defend myself (however that little rhetorical game is in and of itself a misdirection.) or I can give up hope that you actually have anything to say that isn't parroted propaganda.

I choose the latter.

Oh, and so much for Seth's "it's all fine" bullshit, too.
When the Census Bureau this month released a new measure of poverty, meant to better count disposable income, it began altering the portrait of national need. Perhaps the most startling differences between the old measure and the new involves data the government has not yet published, showing 51 million people with incomes less than 50 percent above the poverty line. That number of Americans is 76 percent higher than the official account, published in September. All told, that places 100 million people — one in three Americans — either in poverty or in the fretful zone just above it.
Read all about it.
You are stereotyping the top 1%. Stereotyping is a typical racist activity.

Well, if not an actual insult (which Schnieb seems to deem it to be), it sure looks a lot like an ad hom.

Meh, he seemed alright when he got here, but he's proven to me to be as narrow minded, bigoted and blinkered as every other indoctrinated propagandist, so I've stopped. Cheers for asking.
