In what way? Because I posted about the ANC's record in a thread about Mandela? Are you having a laugh? In fact I was responding to Galt's own post, plus one by the OP (Finn).

Let's see:

Or perhaps some pissing on a grave?

In a memorial thread!

Yeah, no! I'm not having a laugh, at all

Tom, you mention dropping it and then continue to instigate. He won't drop it unless we do too.

Funk, you're right, and i'm "on your side." But you will never convince anyone here of this through any conceivable argument. What you're doing, is exactly what galt/dream/mccock/landcrab/whoever wants you to do. To flail about, making yourself look bad and turning everyone else against you. You will not "win" this argument. People will not suddenly change their minds because you post some compelling record. No matter what any of us do, this place will continue to be a nest of some of the most ignorant/sexist/racist/etc dumbfucks. However, there are also plenty of level headed good folks too. But look, I understand, sometimes the shit really gets under my skin too. I'm notorious for carrying on like a total nut when one of these complete fuckwit shitbags starts up their nonsense. But at a certain point you just have to let go and carry on. I mean, don't roll over and turn the other cheek completely, but say your piece, shoot em a dagger and then just drop it. By reacting how you're reacting your just playing into what a troll wants, you are getting wound up by obvious wind ups. I'm not defending anyone who has wronged you, i'm just saying that there really isn't much you can do and your current reaction just makes you smaller, so don't do it.

Point taken, I'll drop it now.

I second this.
Great explanation of what to do when someone won't stop a useless online debate.

I thought that was pretty witty myself. But you never do understand jokes do you?

Just one note: When you offend, it's always a joke that the other person didn't understand and you always manage to even point to it in a condescending manner. But if one just dares to criticize you, all hell breaks lose.

But I dropped it, so no further discussion from me.

So much drama in the LBC

THIS THREAD IS THE BEST EVER. I REALLY LIKE THE PART WHEN SOMEONE TRIES TO ACTUALLY REASON WITH FUNKEN AND TALK TO HIM AS IF HE'LL ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND.

I LOVE YOU GUYS.

*HUGS*

You shouldn't use capitals so much—it looks like your yelling, so people are going to think that your angry...
