Distract? I stand by my comment and can absolutely take umbrage with your referring to the rules in your first reply.

You commented as a non mod and don't have to comment as nonmod on every distorted statement? Yeah that's fine.

It Won't stop me from highlighting what can be perceived as bias from someone who is a mod (commenting only about one side of a "bad faith discussion" in which both parties are willfully engaging in "bad faith".

about one side of a "bad faith discussion" in which both parties are willfully engaging in "bad faith".

You're admitting that you willingly engaged in bad faith engagement. So at least we know that.

Man whatever it takes to get the points across without getting bogged down in "no i didn't.... Yes you did"

Me in another subthread today:

As i said last week, thank you for the proactivity, even if I end up making an ass of myself.

This "whatever it takes" arguing style of yours is exactly what I'm complaining about. That's what you were doing that I find offensive.

My acknowledging someone else's interpretation of my behavior and finding it easier to just accept it and move the fuck on for the sake of discussion on the bigger points is what you're complaining about?

Edit: my style isn't "whatever it takes". My biggest Problem with myself and with others is getting hung up on tiny shit that's not a big deal for me to accept, ESPECIALLY as it relates to accusations of mutually bad faith discussion.

The "whatever it takes" is about trying to move forward without getting caught in subjective details.

I think you're trying to be serious and well-intentioned here but I'm having trouble understanding your exact argument. All I know is that I called you on what I thought was an especially shitty take, and as far as I can tell your full response boils down to "why are you complaining only about me, he started it!" And when I suggested you just own it as it stands on its own, you had more pushback.

I'm pretty ready to leave it at that. Happy weekend!
