In my book that equals trolling.
It's fine to disagree and if a person needs clarification, they should respectfully ask for it; I find it a disservice to the cause to try and pin someone down and back them into a corner to suit one's personal purity test.
Enough pontification. Offering a confession, now.
I get so discouraged so easily that I have to limit my exposure to the outrage that is today's world. At night, I try to think of puppies, kittens, bunnies, ducklings and brand new baby pigs in order to quiet my mind.
What's your go to warm and fuzzy image?
