> [@Cervaise](#): > > I don’t think she’s a troll, exactly, but I do think she’s a small-minded dingus who sweats through her shirt from the effort of forcibly suppressing her desire to blow the trumpet of her pet prejudices. The repeated deliberate misrepresentation of what other posters have said, characterization of openly offensive views as differences of opinion and claiming minority status after a long posting history of… differing opinions… suggests that the “golly gosh, I’ve just trying to have a frank exchange of views” approach owes more to sealioning than efforts to debate in good faith. ---

Being in the majority generally does give you advantages, but in some cases it’s a minority who have more power - for example, the very rich who can buy political representation the rest of us don’t get. No, those are bad analogies. It’s like someone disagreeing on what disabilities should qualify someone for parking in the handicapped zone, or who should count as black for whatever reason. Apparently, when we Pit her we’re like the 1% or something. Or the Illuminati or ZOG, who knows what she’s on about with that “very rich” non sequitur. ---

That disingenuous little troll needs to seriously fuck off and go away. I really don’t need get her desperate need for our validation. It’s pathetic. If she wants to talk to people that don’t [“vehemently oppose”](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/let-me-be-real-clear-this-message-board-does-not-need-conservatives/947474/1726) her, she should go to Breitbart or some other conservative message board. She will soon discover that they are all cesspools filled with rage drunk hate-filled morons. But instead of complaining that the only people smart enough to be worth talking to are liberals that disagree with everything she believes, she might want to take a self-reflective minute and think about why that is. I’m all in for intelligent opposing viewpoints, that’s why I read the National Review. But when idiots like @octopus @Sam_Stone and @DemonTree think that they are providing anything that approaches an intelligent opposing viewpoint…….that’s just the arrogance of abject stupidity. They’re nothing more than the comment section of Fox News made incarnate. ---

Aren’t you the doof who equates group competence and intellect with disposable income? That’s not really the idea that someone with more than a 2 digit IQ would and more importantly should advocate. To accommodate your different ableness I typed this extra slow. ---

Events referred to as doofs are now held worldwide and have built from a small set of social groups to a subculture with millions of active members worldwide, considered by some as a full blown culture similar to raves or teknivals. Doofs generally have healing workshops, speakers, art, live artists and DJs playing a range of electronic music,... ---

octopus said: “To accommodate your different ableness I typed this extra slow.” See, I get that you were going for a clever zinger here, but really - speaking of an “idea that someone with more than a 2 digit IQ” should avoid - you might want to abstain from the implication that the speed with which a post is read is dependent upon the speed with which it was composed. Because that’s kind of dumb… … you fucking doof. ---

Because that’s kind of dumb… I can’t believe this needs saying but… that’s kind of the point of the comment. It is a joke (and a rather old one at that, but a valid joke nonetheless) Unless you are going for a meta-whoosh? In which case, well done. ---
