Reply #33: I obect most strongly to this

[William Z. Foster]

You inadvertently proved the point that the person you attacked is trying to make.

You are demanding that people be or speak a certain way if they want to be helped. Otherwise, they are "shooting themselves in the foot." That is just another way to say "they have no one to blame but themselves."

Does it occur to you that what the other poster is talking about has nothing to do with them personally and individually, nothing to do with asking you for help for themselves - let alone your approval or acceptance?

Your response proves the validity and importance of what the other person posted.
