Reply #205: Yes, of course, it's so immensely obvious that you can't point to any of the blatant obviousness

Yep, stands out like a sore thumb that you can't see, touch, or point to.

:sarcasm:

Look, I know that witch-hunters and rage-junkies around here love to leap at shadows and creations in their own minds. You're obviously no exception. I've had plenty of experience with people, who love to level accusations, make insinuations, and then when called on it, instead of making a concrete argument or providing evidence, links, excerpts, or anything, they just do exactly the same thing everytime;

"I don't have to prove anything... it's just 'obvious'."




I've been called a 'homophobe' by people who could not find one single instance, anywhere, of anything even hinting at the notion that I could ever be homophobic.

The same with 'sexist', 'racist', etc.

The formula is exactly the same every single time; I go into an emotional thread where I see people spouting off furiously and I post something rational;

"Or maybe he's just very upset."

How dare I, while not knowing the full circumstances, suggest the possibility that he acted out of genuine emotional trauma? I know... now that I have listed a possible motive for him, suddenly it's the same as saying "He was RIGHT to do what he did!" as far as all the emotion-hyped ragers can tell.

Of course, I did absolutely no such thing.

I have found, in virtually every case, that people in rage-threads are unable to make distinctions, and very willing to attack what they perceive to be support of the object of their anger.

Another perfect example; Someone pointed out, factually, that libel suits fail against truthful accounts. That person too was attacked as being 'sympathetic'.

All you'll really have is; "Everyone can see it!" without a single damn thing to point to.


Behavior really does fascinate me.
