Why do you become so belligerent when asked to elaborate on your statement? Are you not sure what you meant?
I know what I meant.
I also know, from repeated experience, that I have to keep my responses simple so that some people, such as yourself, will not get so easily confused.

You're just frustrated that I haven't given you anything to misrepresent...

Others know what I mean, and if they ask me to elaborate I will answer.
The fact that you are the only one asking questions shows me that you are the only one who doesn't get it.
And I can live with that...

Now there's no need to throw one of your girlie little tantrums!

"I know what I meant" is hardly Oxford Union material!

If you can't substantiate your extreme assertions then it's better you just crouch quietly in your corner!

Gar, you are the ONLY one who doesn't understand.
You are the ONLY one who seems to think those statements of obvious fact need "substantiation".
Maybe it is you who needs to crouch quietly in the corner until you can figure out what the rest of the class is comprehending, instead of revelling in your incapability to comprehend and using your own confusion as derision towards others.

How many more long-winded posts will you waste our time by posting before you explain what you meant by right-wingers being "mean"?

So far your debating premises have been:

1) because I say so
2) I know what I mean

How sad that after all this time you haven't learned anything

How many more times are you going to ask before you get it through your head that if you are the only one who doesn't get it, I don't care?

Wrong.
You left out the fact that you are the ONLY ONE who doesn't get what I am talking about.
THAT is the main one actually...

How do you know that?

Other people are probably to bored to demand an explanation from you of your banal generalisations.

And who can blame them

WHO?
Give me a name. Show me an example of anybody but YOU complaining about the length of my posts...

You're soooo desparate to avoid the actual content, that you'll complain about anything but. Cause you know if you actually tried to debate CONTENT, you'd lose every time...

Tell me Gar.
Do you believe my statement inaccurate regarding right-wingers and "mean"?
Do you think there is no example of mean right-wingers?
Because if you aren't arguing against even that, then you have nothing...

Depends what you mean by "mean"

And you seem incapable of telling us

"Defend" would imply that it was under attack, or being refuted.
But you ARE NOT EVEN DOING THAT.

All you are doing is asking incessant stupid questions to be annoying.

If you are going to take up the position that they are not mean, I'll discuss it with you.
Otherwise, this whole thing you are going on with is stupid.

It is JUST YOU who doesn't get it.
JUST YOU.

Like I said, if anybody else needs an explanation, I'll give it.
For you? I'm not going to waste my time explaining rocket science to a 3 year old.

Your elaboration of the word "mean" requires a discussion of rocket science?

You really are a very confused, angry, bitter person.

That isn't an ad hominem comment, it's a diagnosis.
