every post I make, this guy almost follows me, but also he defends anything and everything Obama and of the official Democratic Party. He’s one of those who says that calling Obama “polarizing” is “racist.” Tries to use the no true scotsman argument whenever someone points out how weak on radical Islam jihad Barack Obama is. And on every single issue, he takes the liberal side, be it foreign policy, race relations, you name it. He also is one of those who always defends Islam, but never any other religion. I’m generally left of center, I have some positions left (abortion, LGB rights, economics, environment), some positions right(foreign policy, worldview), and some dead-center, like race relations and police. The always-to-one-side stuff isn’t what I expected from a site like this. ---

So, in short, he has different opinions than you? Weak. ---

[ISIS has lost a considerable portion](http://www.businessinsider.com/isis-losing-territory-2016-5) of land it once controlled. What more do you think Obama should do? Or is it because he won’t say [del]Abracadabra[/del] Radical Islamic Terrorism? Would Moderate Islamic Terrorism be more acceptable? > [@](#): > > Operation Inherent Resolve spokesman Col. Steve Warren said during a Pentagon briefing on Wednesday that ISIS (also known as the Islamic State, ISIL, or Daesh) has lost 45% of the territory it once controlled in Iraq and 30-35% of the populated areas it once held across its “caliphate” in Iraq and Syria. ---

Awesome, my first pitting! And it’s by an ignorant, cowardly bigot whose latest idiocy is implying an upcoming DNC speaker supports terrorism [based on nothing but his name and religion](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=19501959#post19501959). Khan is the father of an actual non-cowardly patriot – someone who, like me, joined the military and served in the years following 9/11. Unfortunately, unlike me, he was killed in action. And, **DerekMichaels00** , instead of commiserating or sympathizing with the man for the loss of his son, you suspect him of supporting terrorism based on nothing but your own vile bigotry. I have nothing to judge you on but what you post. You’re a young guy who claims to be a patriot – normally, I counsel young men who claim patriotism to join the military. But not you, at least based on your posts – cowardly, ignorant bigots aren’t worthy of the US armed forces. Fix yourself and grow up, or stew in your vile, bigoted, disgusting and cowardly juices. And I’ll add lying to the list, considering all the bullshit lies you’ve spewed about me in the first post of this thread. Stay away from the US military, coward. There’s no place in it for cowardly, ignorant, and dishonest bigots. ---

You’re a bigoted imbecile, **DerekMachaels00** , and your _always-wrong-but-never-in-doubt_ posting history is a testament to your lack of intellect & character. Instead of pitting your betters, work on trying to become a better human being. ---

Cool, another pit thread bound to backfire! Hey, OP, remember when you hated on tranwomen simply because you’re too vile to date and insecure about it? ---

The always-to-one-side stuff isn’t what I expected from a site like this. Whatever position you take, it’s generally ineptly and stupidly presented and defended. Regardless of the issue, you’re one poster I would never want to have on my side, because you invariably make whatever side you’re on look bad. ---

Maybe I have too much patience for trolls – I often can’t tell, and err on the side of giving them a chance. But I have no patience for overt bigotry of the type that **DerekMichaels00** has expressed. ---

When I saw the thread title, I actually thought this thread was going to be an at least somewhat tongue-in-cheek pitting of \*\*iiandyiiii \*\*for being too patient with trolls.
