Yes, but will he ever? It is addicted to its anger.

I remembered that when I was accused of trying to minimize the abuse of children by quoting from the government report that listed the amount of children that had died, and no-one wanted to believe it. Nor believe that only 60% of the Reform schools in Canada were run by Catholics, and neither the good Protestant or evil Catholic Schools were worse or better than one another. A report that I was pointed at by one of the people attacking me, and which I made the sin of actually reading. And which the very person who triumphantly gave me the link to prove how evil Catholics were then said I was lying about it, becasue SHE hadn't read it.Slim Cognito wrote: ↑Fri Mar 25, 2022 7:41 pm There's a good way to disagree with other members and a bad way to disagree.

Agree Estiveo but but but....maybe it is the retired litigator in me but I can't help but get into a good argument. I think it is a shame that Fogbow, my favorite site on the Web, has its own pet troll, but I want to join in rebutting it. However, BLOCKED!!Estiveo wrote: ↑Fri Mar 25, 2022 8:07 pm Better to starve the troll rather than feed it. I put him on mute years ago due to his homophobia, casual misogyny, and his venomous defenses of the atrocities of the catholic church. Some of his nastiness & bullshit bleed through when others quote his bilious blatherings, but mostly it's blessed silence.
If you're tired of his hate speech, attacks, and complaints of victimhood when called out on his behavior, join me in hitting the mute button.
Yes, pot stirring just to bring the fetid stench of homophobia, misogyny, and victimhood to everyone's nostrils. I muted several months ago. Don't miss it at all.Estiveo wrote: ↑Fri Mar 25, 2022 8:07 pm Better to starve the troll rather than feed it.

If I spoke to him, he would hear only growlings and roarings. Oh, Adam's son, how cleverly you defend yourself against all that might do you good!”
What I remember from that discussion is that you several times took my head off for agreeing with you. If anyone corrected any small error or added nuance to a statement it offended you and you accused the "perpetrator" of an anti-Catholic hate crime.Suranis wrote: ↑Fri Mar 25, 2022 8:13 pm

I also did not read the report in total. What I read did not give me the impression that it was all about 'REFORM' schools, but Residential Schools in general. Is this right?But I actually read the report, repeated what it said, and people attacked me for it. Falsehoods when challenged only grow and the challenger becomes the bad guy.
My post said there's a right way and a wrong way to disagree, a statement which itself agrees that people are allowed to have different opinions. But accusing those of us who disagree of masturbating to his words, that's just wrong.Phoenix520 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 26, 2022 1:48 am I’m not sure why suranis isn’t allowed to have thoughts of his own. You don’t have to like them; you can argue with them or ignore them. You really don’t need to be so snotty to him.
He lives in Ireland. His cultural influences, including with the Catholic Church, are very different than yours or mine, I dare say.
I cringe every time you pile on him. Either block him or ignore him.
Go ahead, block me too.
Having already decided to take the advice of the boggle and block Suranis, and done so, I'm reading back through this kerfuffle. Wanted to say I'm so with you on your first paragraph and half way through the second, and thank you for putting it so clearly. I do have a different nuance on the "loathe" point, as one of the women on the forum you bring up.SuzieC wrote: ↑Fri Mar 25, 2022 6:49 pm "You lot." "Masturbate to hating me." Why are you here Suranis? You are so consumed by hatred, especially for many of the women on this forum. Accusing people who disagree with you of being manipulated by Putin is perhaps the most ridiculous thing you have ever said, out of many.
I know Foggy is long time friends with you and I respect that. However, I believe that most of the women here loathe you. You are right, people hate you but masturbation? You give yourself waaay too much credit.
Agreed. A fall from a window is too quick. Karma demands he die a slow and painful death.
I mean, it does happen that he might fall out of the window several times, right?filly wrote: ↑Sat Mar 26, 2022 3:25 pmAgreed. A fall from a window is too quick. Karma demands he die a slow and painful death.
Fine. Fall out of a window *several time* and land in a cell with Ted Cruz. But that's as far as we can stretch this reasonably, I think.
Are co-ed cells a thing? Although, I do find it funny to wonder that if the 5 of them were in a cell, who would be the alpha? I'm pretty much ruling out Cawthorn and Cruz. So that leaves Putin or one of the ladies. Who takes everyone else's commisary money and cigarettes?
