drad dog: Fuck you, you smug, douchebag troll

@WordMan

What does that even mean?!?!!

You bring fresh meaning to the fallacy of reductio as absurdum. Impwessive.

For more fun, see post #83.

@drad_dog

Let’s say Julian had called her a “chink” when he was 7. (I’m sure he never did such a thing) This would have really meant he was asking for attention and probably in trouble somehow. But with narcissists you can’t be a child. You are considered culpable, for what they did to you.

Then, in response to Word Man,

@WordMan

What could you possibly be going on about?

What if Julian insulted her during a Leap Year??!? Would John be allowed to be mean to him once every four years?!?

@drad_dog

This is serious, and not snarky, because I do care about you: Can you explain what you just said here, by relating it to my post? It sounds like you are making reference to the solar calendar for some reason and getting really excited. How does that relate with anything?

Then drad dog continues to set out his bait:

@WordMan

I am saying I don’t understand what you are asking. It sounds like you are asking us to imagine* some scenario where jerk John is somehow even jerkier, or his jerkishness is somehow highlighted in his treatment of Julian. It’s some reductio ad absurdum scenario that has no bearing.

John was a jerk. He was damaged and it manifested in how he treated Julian and Cynthia. He also wrote about, and in some ways demonstrated, a desire to be a better person. And wrote some brilliant fucking music. What more are you looking for?

*heh

@drad_dog

You don’t understand what I said but you’re just making sure the place runs correctly, with the right ignorance fought in the correct way?

I said he was more than a jerk. It’s child abuse as I see it. You are pushing back because you want it to stay right there at “jerk”? Why do you have an agenda about the kind of father JL was? I already explained why I do. Why do you need to police content of other posters?

I was responding to this in my previous few posts. Please look up at the OP. Have you read any of the last 10 posts for content?
