Please don't call people racist because they disagree with you

96. Exactly! What do you think the point of my being nasty with them is?

Don't pretend this is a civilized debate. Don't pretend this is high school forensics club.

It isn't.

The people spewing all the authoritarian McCarthyist smears against Snowden, who were accusing us of racism for daring to disagree with the President on the NSA, who have been demanding we give away our liberty for security, are not here for discussion. Don't tell me to debate them more when it's obvious they're not here to have an honest and respectful debate.

They're here to propagandize, and to harass. They're here to spam the boards with their bullshit to create the false impression that their viewpoint is more popular. They're here to bully, and provoke, and poison the well of discussion.

They can't win a fair debate, so they're doing an electronic Gish Gallop.

It's deceptive, it's divisive, it's despicable.

Why should I respect them when they don't respect us?

Don't lecture me about disrespecting them. I'm just their mirror. I give them what they give us. After all the shit they give us, I think cussing them out is just a fraction of what they've earned in return.

Why do you think I encourage people to shun them? Because they show their own characters. They show they're people who are capable of, and enjoy bullying, lying, character assassination, and other vicious attacks. They're the kind of people that I don't want to be around. They're complete fucking scum.

So yeah, for all the right-wing authoritarians, for all the people screaming "Racist!" at anyone criticizing Pres. Obama, for all the shit-flinging character assassins? Yeah. I want them purged. If I were in charge, I'd take everyone that's already in my ignore list, who got a Klingon discommendation, and I'd throw them out instantly.
