Now you’re trying to gaslight me into believing that as a result of me calling that out as completely unproductive I’m somehow of the opinion that no one but myself can add value to the discussion?

If you don’t like my suggestion that would somewhat address the fact that there currently are no term limits because you don’t think politicians would go for it maybe you should try suggesting something that would have some impact on the issue that they would be more likely to go for, not one that they would be less likely to.

I’m not taking what you wrote as an attack on me, I’m taking it for what it is. Unproductive nonsense.
Came out of nowhere? That is the whole purpose of community forums. Someone posts something, other people read it and post replies and discuss a topic. You posted something that you claimed would definitely reduce the number of crappy career politicians and I disagree because your proposal allows for those crappy politicians to potentially hold their position for 16 or so years which doesn't solve any of the issues related to crappy career politicians.

I'm sorry that you see disagreement as such an affront to discussion but you won't always get buy in to your ideas. I subsequently offered my opinion on what could be done and you dismissed it as offering no value. You're throwing stones from a glass house.
