    Your anger is my comedy.

    Damn.

    OK, like I said "if you think….", if you don't that's fine.
    You are saying people should boycott an entire company because of one of their products. You are trying to silence him by threatening the company is how I read it. If you frame it differently, no problem.

    I was responding to a post that said we should boycott a publishing company because they're putting out a book you don't like. That is intolerant, in my opinion.

    You make it difficult to sympathize…..as always, I rise above.

    How about just letting people have different opinions about things, and defeating their ideas rather than trying to silence them or trash them personally? If you think all intolerance is coming from the right - look in the mirror.
    And no, you can't justify intolerence by saying "i'm intolerant of the intolerant" -

    Yeah I definitely wouldn't consider forcing anyone to listen to him.

    Have a great day cliffy. We're all just shooting the shit here - no one's opinions make them a monster or stupid.

    I don't know what you're talking about, yet I have an overwhelming suspicion that you misstated what happened. I am absolutely positive - again, knowing little about anyone involved - that he didn't encourage anyone to make real death threats toward anyone.

    I'm talking about how people deal with me personally.

    Its fine if you think that - its the determination to bring someone down that is off-putting.

    I sincerely hope you have a wonderful day.

    No I'm thinking you could probably be nicer though.

    OMG you are the worst person in the world for having a certain opinion.

    God this place is so weird and hostile.

    I've actually never been there. Weird comment - why would you say that? I'm a democrat. In fact, I said above exactly that he *doesn't* have unique insight, just interesting. Maybe slow down a bit here? Or not, carry on, whatever works for you, but at least try to communicate honestly.

    No no - he is like Hitler. See below - you don't have to be responsible for millions of deaths to be held to that same level of contempt.

    What is this even supposed to mean? I'm not so pathetically insecure that crude **** talking like this will have much effect.

    Thanks for the respectful conversation.

    What does your soul look like?
