Like I said in my initial post he's definitely crossing into trolling territory but I don't think we need to start dragging the discussion down to personal attacks. I've had a poster in PM condemn me for my "character judgments" and I'm like WTF? You don't even know me outside of some posts on a forum but you think you can call out my character? Some of you take this stuff way too seriously. Nobody really knows anyone here and I think we need to be a little careful about throwing words around that may or may not be true.
You're the one coming to the defence of a low-effort troll who hasn't expressed the slightest interest in good faith discussion, and also hasn't expressed the slightest indignation at his treatment (which isn't to say someone should have to complain to not get ridiculed, but the golden rule is simply playing out here).

This is not an example of the uncouth "Left" brow-beating a poor victim for having the audacity to espouse dissenting views, no matter how much you want it to be...I can't imagine any other reason why you'd jump in like you did, but feel free to enlighten me.

If you don't like the devolution of the conversation, then why not offer a thoughtful comment that would lead to meaningful discussion? There is no shortage of topics right now.
