#msg2210629brightlights : Do you have a comment on topic?
 
ParksideRes : I believe I have multiple times here. What, now you don't don't even bother to read others' posts?
 
Try it on by not responding to this.

#msg2210621I didn't intend that to be a good thing.
 
brightlights :
I got the sarcasm. But if what I said put me in "good company". I'm alright with that. Thus the thumbs up.

#msg2210626sandman : Yes. That is avoiding the issue as it doesn't actually bring anything to the discussion 🤣   As an aside, it's fine but you've still not brought anything.
 
ParksideRes :
My participation in this thread was limited to sharing an anecdote about a Canadian friend encouraging her American friends to attend the No Kings protests. That's it. I haven't offered an opinion on the protests themselves, nor do I intend to, because frankly, the subject doesn't interest me enough to debate it.
 
If you expect every comment in a discussion to meet some committee-approved standard of relevance, complete with fact-checking, peer review, and your personal stamp of approval, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed.
 
All I wanted to share was the irony of a Canadian citizen encouraging Americans to protest against kings while living in a country that actually has one.
 
If my little anecdote doesn't meet your minimum standards for meaningful discourse, I have a remarkably simple solution: scroll past it.
 
You don't have to agree with it, appreciate it, or spend your precious neurons trying to turn it into an argument about something I never claimed.
I'm not arguing for or against the No Kings protests, nor am I debating whether our president behaves like a king. Those are arguments you're apparently eager to have, just not with me.
 
You keep insisting I'm avoiding a debate. I'm telling you there was never a debate to begin with.
 
Buen día.

Did you scroll past what you didn't like from me? 😉

If you haven't realized it yet, that is what I do with the majority of your posts. I absolutely do not mind if you do the same with my posts.

Of course now I need to do a fact-finding mission. "How many posts has sandman made in the last 2 months and what percent did I reply to?"

sandman : Agree with everything you're saying, but you're speaking to a brick wall as an exercise in futility.
