Mr Lasastryke posted... i'm saying i usually (but not now) get attacked for "resorting to whataboutism" when i counter criticism of me engaging with red sox with criticism of people engaging with sephy. To be fair, I think that happened because you were blatantly saying "If people are going to reply to sephy then I'm going to continue to argue with red sox" and it was just like... no that doesn't help anything, other people being dumb doesn't mean you should be dumb, too While normally this is right, sometimes people's behavior reaches the point where there is no reasoning with them and if you ignore them they will take more and more. In this case, if you have the power to stop them, the correct strategy is tit for tat, implacable opposition, until they are crushed and defeated. This is the strategy the Democrats have forced Mitch McConnell to use against them. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! <cite>red sox 777 posted [p:924100018] in Politics C...
