How can I ever agree with > someone who thinks the suppression of others is good! Are you asserting I was wrong in my observations that day? Do you think I disagree with anything in the second quoted paragraph? Would it matter? Oh, why do I let myself get sucked in? What even is that kind of argument occurring post “After all,”? I can’t figure out if this is just a non-sequitur, and/or a straw man, or part of a gish gallop? Something just pathological? Perhaps I should go get checked and make sure I didn’t have a stroke since it seems like I must be having trouble processing my environment: it seems like you’ve been behaving this way on the mailing list for months and apparently nobody in charge has asked you to do better or stop and everyone here is pretty smart and professional.
