They’ve already been quoted in this thread, but, seriously: > [@Martin Hyde, you're a fucking idiot](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/martin-hyde-youre-a-fucking-idiot/344078/80): > > Also, the majority of this board is nothing but the representation of the worst and most despicable section of America. Degenerates, the mentally ill, the unwashed masses of extreme leftism that are literally a cancer upon mainstream society. The _more_ credible I’m held by a bunch of degenerates the worse off I am as a person. > [@Martin Hyde, you're a fucking idiot](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/martin-hyde-youre-a-fucking-idiot/344078/277): > > I think most people, Bricker and John Mace and et al don’t recognize how patently insane this place is. Or maybe they just feel it would be wrong to point out to the madhouse the nature of its residents. > > I don’t feel that way. This is a poster who has for years (decades, really) by his own admission held the majority of the board in open contempt and readily admits that some of the vitriol in his replies are a half step removed from trolling. And has been repeatedly crossed the line attacking posters or groups based on their ethnicity. I know some people want to be “fair” or “see things from both sides” but as far as I’m concerned, that’s just another way of asserting a lazy form of moral superiority by simplistically assuming there must be a just and fair middle ground than doing the work to see that one ‘side’ may actually just be not only wrong but a once and continuing asshole. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-pit-martin-hyde/944407)._
