What happened to the right wing on A2K???????????????

You never debated at all honestly.

You sealioned and when people refused to indulge your pointless time wasting you the claimed victory.

The fascists weren't driven away, they lost the argument and slunk off with their tails beneath their legs.

The reason people aren't responding to your posts is your dishonesty and the fact you're not a very interesting person.

Sorry.

Let me clarify what I said. I didn't mean I'd had a dozen diseases in the past 10 years. I meant I'd had a dozen vaccines.

And no sense of humour.

Yes, I know that. That's why I singled the two of you out as not being anti-vaxxers.


It's hard to see how anyone could actually be "driven away", though. This is free speech forum. You can basically post anything you like and simply ignore any response. There may have been members who broke the rules of the site and drew suspensions, but that isn't the same as leaving because your opinion is unpopular – that's "snowflake" behavior. An online mob wielding verbal pitchforks doesn't really put anyone in physical danger, especially when you can simply choose not to read or respond.

But I can see the why someone might not feel that it's worth the effort to put your best into an argument and I don't think I'd spend any time on a MAGA site trying to engage in an actual dialogue.

Blatham and georgeob carried on some good discussions. But I think that was partly because they had met face-to-face at a meet-up or two, and were able to conduct their arguments sincerely and respectfully. I was disappointed when it became obvious that georgeob had turned into a Trump loyalist. He lost his conservative credentials when he turned into a MAGA partisan and subsequently fled.

I would prefer a forum where the opinions are more evenly divided to one where whenever I express my opinion, five people rush in and call me names.

Nobody has called you names, your tactics and character have been adressed with good reason.

Back in the day I could argue with the right wing about policy.

Now it's bloody reality.

Instead of whining why not trying to debate in good faith.

That means no more time wasting, no insistance that people rewrite newspaper reports in their own words, no refusal to accept established facts.

No silly rule making, rules incidentally that only apply to others, never yourself.

No declaring victory when people refuse to indulge your pointless time wasting.

One example of you demanding proof of an established fact is the huge difference between shootings in the UK and US.

Nobody else never needed proof of that.

For once be honest and stop playing the bloody victim.
