In reply to the discussion: Real respect for others beliefs [View all]trotsky
(49,533 posts)I didn't compare you to a right-winger, I compared a TACTIC you were using, namely the fallacy of false privation. Etc.
But there is no context that makes your name-calling and insinuations of stupidity look any better.
And while I know how Leon Trotsky was assassinated, my username has nothing do to with him. I acknowledge you had no way of knowing this. But I don't give a shit about that, the insult was to my intellect. And for that reason, yeah, I'm not amused. So if you need to avoid addressing that insult and just claim I'm "walking away in a huff," fine. I don't give a shit.
What you are most guilty of, it appears, is jumping into THIS thread without being aware of the context - namely, the other thread where guillaumeb was the person who got all upset about "religious intolerance". He's the one you should have jumped on. Everyone else has been mocking his claims of religious intolerance or pointing out the religious privilege he is enjoying in order to make the claims of intolerance, and you've attacked them instead of him for his initial "whine."
