Honey it's not a brigade, you're just wrong. It's not pedantism, you just sound like a fool.

I've been around long enough to know that 10-12 downvotes on every comment in a dead thread with only three participants is a brigade. You can say it isn't but that doesn't change that it is and that anyone who looks at it can see that it is.

"The sky is red, millions of people are dying, and we can save them."

"The sky isn't red."

"No, my point was millions of people are dying and we can save them."

"But the sky isn't red!"

That is the literal definition of pedantism.

My main point was that some starting points aren't worth negotiating. I'm sorry that you missed that. It was apparently clear to most readers. That extremists are extremists is a minor, establishing statement and absolutely true. That anyone is arguing that instead of my main point is pedantic.

Here's the thing...I don't care what you or anyone else thinks. That's why your insults are meaningless to me. You want to piss into the wind, go ahead and I'll just keep mocking you.

I'll be here if you want to have an actual conversation.

You think it's clear to most readers, yet ignore the largest evidence contrary to that and instead try to explain it away with conspiratorial thinking, interesting.

I know you don't ask the question because you didn't actually want an answer. I answered the question anyway. I could have answered down here in this dead thread but no one would see it. Instead I answered in the original comment.

The word vomit in your last comment didn't make any sense at all or have anything to do with anything I wrote. I'll ignore anything that you are any of your circle jerk buddies say unless it's an actual good faith comment free from insults and logical fallacies that materially advances the conversation.
