(106,872 posts)that people who would fit in a DU group are:
"too caustic and dividing"
"not very likable people"
have a "warped world view"
and it is clear that you started this thread to attract a few people from that group (hence your "I won a bet with myself" stuff), and then you proceeded to insult them - and don't pretend that saying "people like this would fit in well in the group" is not really insulting the DUers themselves. If I say the kind of person you're likely to agree with is a sexist troll who has an obsession with a DU group he was rightly banned from, it's pretty obvious I'm saying it about you.
So you wrote something to attract people to disagree with it, and then insulted them. That is classic trolling. Ironically, you are caustic and dividing, and you see things in black and white. But mainly, you like to troll.
All redqueen did was point out the source and content of your links, and then you replied to her "thanks to you, I just won a mental bet with myself". This actually shows you weren't waiting for a discussion of your OP - you were waiting for redqueen, or someone like her, to reply, and you didn't give a toss what she actually posted.
"I wonder how this thread would have gone If I were a woman? Much differently, I bet." Now, that's what I call a pity party.
