Good job not reading any of the links and just seeing the word 'trans' in one of them and assuming it was all about trans rights.

Good job for linking bombing and making a baseless claim.

When has Trump ever threatened as you claimed ?

Three links is not 'link bombing.'

And I see no reason to answer your question if you can't look at the links that show you're wrong about Trump. Entirely.

It isn’t my job to dig through pages of propaganda to try to find your claim.

You made the claim, it’s your job to clearly cite it.

I read through it and couldn’t find once where Trump said let’s execute the gays or anything of that nature.

You clearly did not read through it because you thought it was all about trans issues.

I never made that claim but that is the bulk of the link bomb. So once again, can you specifically cite your claim. Otherwise, I’ll just chalk you being incorrect as always.

First of all, not only did you make that claim, but you admitted you didn't read the links:

Gay and trans are not the same. I’m not going to trod through a bunch of vague accusations.

Secondly, three links is still not a link bomb.

Thirdly, civility is the rule here, so I would advise you not to make personal attacks.

I’m not making a personal attack. I’m asking you to specifically to back up your claim which you refuse. That means your claim is false since you can’t back it up. As I said I perused through the link bomb and didn’t see anything to backup up your claim. I on the other hand provided a cite that did backup my claim. So I’m leave it at that.

This was a personal attack.

Otherwise, I’ll just chalk you being incorrect as always.

I do not moderate my own discussions, but I am going to be watching you from now on to make sure you do not make such attacks towards others.

If you wish to argue with me that it was not a personal attack, I guess you'll be surprised when your post gets deleted when it happens again with someone else.

I hope this is clear.

I get it. You can’t backup your claim so you throw the mod gauntlet down. Well played. I would expect a mod to act in good faith by backing their claim and not just link bombing then making personal attacks about the other persons I’ve learned you don’t act in good faith from this discussion.

You can claim I don't act in good faith if you like and I am happy to continue this discussion if you wish, but I wanted to make it very clear to you first that personal attacks are not tolerated around here and if I had seen you say that to anyone else, it would be deleted. It was a violation of community rules and the only reason it wasn't deleted by me was because you said it to me.

So I'm not sure why you think me saying I'm not going to moderate this discussion is some throwing "the mod gauntlet" down, but you're welcome to believe that as well.

Let me know if you ever look at those links.

I have told you at least three times I read through the links. I asked you to specially callout the cite as I did not see anything to support your claim. A person acting in good faith would callout their evidence to further the conversation to add clarity. A bad faith person, tried to insult the person, throw down the mod gauntlet and won’t clarify their position.

When you want to be a good faith person, let me know. If trump really threatened to execute gay people, that would change my vote

If you read the links, what does this mean?

I’m not going to trod through a bunch of vague accusations.

Also, when did I insult you? Please quote me.
