fanatical perspectives such as hating most men can be dismissed without much thought.

insults going with your vague posts, before anyone truly gets what or where your post is coming from.

no link? no context? no clue?

fail.

It's not what you pretend it to be.

Slight of hand, misrepresentation... surely, you are a bit better than that.

Neither stop me from recognizing "collective guilt" as a spectacularly fuckwitted display of inadequate critical thinking skills. That, I have little doubt, was the point of the OP.

against any whole group of people for any heinous crime. It's lazy, dishonest and used by people who've decided that dividing and shaming is a fine thing to do ....... 'why', I will never understand.

and without asking, but just throwing out insults, you are correct in that you will NEVER understand.

I just said I didn't understand using that tactic. What else, according to you, won't I ever understand?

And why so personal? What insult did I throw out?

Is there something else you think I should understand? I don't need to 'ask' you, especially, about anything. I stated exactly what I don't understand, if you don't agree with that, it's your perogative, but please don't assume I need to learn a single thing from you, k?

What insult did I throw out?

Why so personal?
