I'd guess the one where he told Georgia's government to "find" an extra 12,000 votes for him.

Fucking Chuck Schumer went on the air tonight and suggested that today's events were as bad or worse than Pearl Harbor. Even by Schumer's usual outlandish rhetoric, that's out there. Also I'm not sure why McConnell only had a few minutes to speak while Schumer was still droning on with his nonsense 8 or 10 minutes later when I finally just gave up watching it.

The phone call has nothing to do with today's timeline. Otherwise the rally took place before the protestors illegally stormed congress and occupied the capitol.

That was pretty dumb of him to say.

So you unblocked me so you could engage in some lazy trolling?

I unblocked you because it was brought to my attention that you were spreading lies about me in another topic where you claimed that I routinely insult users by claiming they suffer from schizophrenia and other mental illnesses, just the latest in your many, many lies.

Who I have on my block or ignore list is my business and changed at my preference. If you wanna have a strange fixation on what posts I do or do not see then I guess thats your business as well.

Back to the topic at hand, if calling people that stormed our nations capital and attacked police terrorists is enough to troll you, then I think you might be more easily triggered than anyone Ive ever seen on this board.

Yeah, how out of the loop would someone have to be to not see that these storming lunatics (note to mods: they are storming government property, and are clearly mad enough for the latter part of that clause, imho) in DC are from a cult of domestic terrorists? How outlandish would someone have to be to defend such acts of clear and present insurrection and claim that calling it out is trolling? How does it not surprise me it's not the same guy, again, who's been known to lie about various things over the last few years?

Lies would suggest it's untrue, when you routinely use allegations of mental illness to insult and diminish posters. While you can try to pigeonhole and pretend that you don't often use schizophrenia specifically -- which even then isn't true -- you can't deny your overall routine of pulling that shit. Then again, you deny doing everything you do. But you do you.

And it's just one of the many, many truly reprehensible things you do.

Considering that you went out of your way to not call people who attacked cops, damaged government buildings, and set fire to government vehicles (while some were also making death threats against politicians) in the past terrorists, it's a pretty conspicuous inconsistency. But more importantly, the trolling is you making alterations to what I said and making false edits to my post.

>Sees a discussion where I'm criticizing somebody for their habit using mental illness (and allegations thereof) an insult
>Sees that as an invitation to use mental illness as an insult (and then tops it off with an insincere justification for the behavior)

That's some pretty deliberate shit. Granted, your inappropriate usage still isn't anywhere as bad as that guy's because he brings up specific mental illnesses in his accusations which he uses to disparage and diminish posters.

the way zeus constantly and unnecessarily green texts is so cringe

There he goes strawmanning what had actually been said, again. This is why he's impossible to take serious in any discussion. Shame, too.

You literally chose the word for that effect. You saw the array of countless other words that could be used and, out of all of those words, went with something that DIRECTLY had that connotation. That's why you did your whole wink & a nod parenthetical statement about the mods defending that usage because you specifically chose it *knowing* how it fit directly into the criticism.

Don't even fucking play. That's not a "strawman," that's literally what you were doing. And here's something else you're doing: gaslighting. (Or just trolling.)

---

No, Zeus, gaslighting would be if I were making you question your own sanity so that I might gain something out of our confused state, such as silence or obedience. If you are feeling the need to ask yourself all-important questions about whether or not what you've thought to be real is, in fact, real, then that's on you.

I made a clarification to mods because, as you well know, some of them behave more action-happy than actually helps, and so the parenthesis was intended to tell them how I arrived to my opinion and word choice as opposed to leaving it open as to be interpreted as an insult. They can and will remove messages as offensive, even when said messages are clearly not as such; again, you know this.

But please, keep misinterpreting what is being said to you in such a way that you can spin it and continue to make your cobbled arguments. That actually is strawman.

notice how the trumpers arent actually making any real arguments about what happened today, just a bunch of strawmanning and whataboutisms.

I like how you explain gaslighting while gaslighting. Magnifique!

You arrived at your choice because you saw me take issue with people using accusations of mental illness as a form of insult and went with that word to spite the criticisms and demonstrate where you stand on the issue. Under normal contexts, nobody would bat an eye at it because it's become somewhat detached over the years. However, this is a more deliberate attempt to tie it in, while both covering your ass and drawing attention to what you did. And it was a cheeky move on your part, but I don't really feel like belaboring the point. I know what you did and you know what you did.

---

If you know what I did, then I'm not the one trolling here, because the rest of your post is rife with inaccuracy or disingenuous claims. If you know what I did, you would be lying to call my words gaslighting, just for starters. I am going to have to ask you to stop.

Oh right, I can't even copy your shit without risking a moderation for disruptive posting. If I posted Mead's accusations of mental illness -- the most recent of which was accusing a person of having schizophrenia, which he'll acknowledge today but deny a month from now and pretend it never happened (and you'll go along with it because you always so) -- I'd get modded for offensive material, a fact that you fucking know because you pointed out the dangers of posting screencaps of TOS-violations after asking me for a TOS-violating screencap that got me suspended last year.
