Ok, Rikky, I tried to explain (as did several others in this thread) that the Cafe Society is not the place to debate political beliefs. You however continue to tell everyone else they are wrong and are attempting to jusifty your arrogant and self-righteous hijack of that thread:
We didn’t jump the OPer because he wasn’t debating: he simply made a comment, which others chose not to address. You chose to debate in that thread instead of creating a new thread either in GD or here, as was suggested. It has nothing to do with your political beliefs, you self-righteous prick (which I couldn’t give two shits about BTW) it’s because you’re hijacking the thread after being asked to take it elsewhere.
Tell ya what. When you know what my politcal stance on the war is, then maybe you can call me a hypocrite or not. You’re assuming I disagree with your beliefs, when the truth is I DON’T CARE. It wasn’t a political thread. It was a thread about a TV movie that had one comment in it that you found distasteful. The OP was about the movie, not about politics.
And now we have personal attacks in Cafe Society. This is a no-no, I don’t care who’s doing them. I know msmith537 called you a dumbass first (which was also out of place in that thread), but how does that justify a personal attack on the OPer? More than once before you were called a dumbass you were asked to start a new thread in GD or The Pit. However, you were adamant in your stance to stay there and continue your pet debate. Ergo, you are a dumbass, which is why I’m not going after msmith537.
And BTW, before you claim I’m not going after msmith537 because we share the same political beliefs, let me asure you, that had msmith537 called me a dumbass in Cafe Society, he would have been called out on it by me, and taken to the Pit, where we can flame each other to our hearts’ content or until the thread got closed, whichever came first. You however, took the name calling as a reason to personally attack the OPer, who had nothing to do with calling you a dumbass. You see the difference there?
We didn’t critique him because that isn’t the place for debate. The comment was ignored to discuss the film.
And is there a cite to support your martyrdom?
Fine, they opened themselves up for debate, but read the forum descriptions. There’s a whole forum called Great Debates. Guess what goes on in there? I even suggested you can start a new thread and link to it in the Cafe Society thread so you debate to your heart’s content without continuing your hijack, but you preferred to rationalize thumbing your nose at the rules of the fora.
And I just have to toss in this little nugget of arrogance, which I just absolutely love this, after I twice informed Rikky that his opinion did not equal truth:
Now, here’s the quote that Rikky calls slanderous, inaccurate and ignorant:
Ok, Rik, now we’re in the Pit. Now we can debate and call each other dumbasses. The statement may be sarcastic, it may be an over-simplification, but how is the about quote slanderous (actually libelous since it is a written statement), inaccurate, or ignorant? If doctors had guns pointed at them, then it is accurate. How can this be libelous if no one’s character is being hurt by this remark? And how can it be an example of ignorance if this indeed what happened?
Oh, wait, I think I see, you believe it is all three of those things, therefore in your mind, it is a FACT. That’s not how facts work, sparky. There’s lots of little kids that believe in the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus, but that doesn’t make their deeds FACT, does it? Or is the only prerequiste for a fact to be a fact that you believe it to be so?
Now, here you have your very own thread to teach us what is truth, fact, or hypocrisy according to RikWriter. Now shut the fuck up in the other thread.
