I get the lying about things and arguing from a position of fake authority. I wasn’t aware of the timeline between the banning and the supposedly irrelevant off board posts.

Fortunately you not knowing the details didn’t stop you from having a very strong opinion about it.

I could say the same about most of the hive and their economic, social, and political views. Other than the detail about it being fortunate.

Well as he was banned before he typed out the “supposedly irrelevant off board posts” you can edit out your supposedly. You’re just embarrassing yourself at this point.

Maybe instead of whataboutism you should say, “You’re right, I should withhold judgement into the future until I know what the fuck I’m talking about. My bad! Carry on everyone, and have a nice day.”

So asking for the link where he admitted all this is embarrassing? You all are very easily shamed if you think asking for a link and being unsure about the complete multiboard time line is something to be embarrassed about.

The implication here is that there was a point where he **wasn’t** embarrassing himself.

Asking for the link was fine, it was your twatwaffle response after that was douchey.

Using the word _supposedly_ should embarrass you in this case.

You’re either trolling or too stupid for words.

Misreading what I quoted for you a second time is pretty embarrassing.

You really suck at this.

Because Octopus had been trolling us for 8 years. Martin\_Hyde is the major leagues.

He really seems to hate it here. If I didn’t like a place, I would stop posting there. I really enjoy the conversations on the SD. I think it’s the only place online to have a real discussion with good moderation. O, on the other hand, spends his time complaining about this place, rules-lawyering, and defending the indefensible. What a weird way to spend one’s time.

I’ll give **Martin Hyde** this, he was a good troll and actually very knowledgeable in many areas and great at researching others. I would never say this about Octo, He is probably our dumbest long term trollish poster.

Both methinks. He is just basically jumping up and down while yelling “over here! Look at me!” The irony is that real octopuses are quite smart for invertebrates.

There is value in reading opinions and debates that look at issues from a different point of view. Unlike the evergrowing number of woke-usts that inhabit these forums I don’t need to be part of monolithic hive. I can tolerate other points of view. Sometimes I actually learn something.
