I don’t 
You are both as bad as each other. Do stop it.
This kind of thing is why people believe you are trolling. I mean, it’s just fucking pathetic. It really is.
What? Proving your use of language to be demonstrably incorrect?

I did try. Threw out the olive branch but it landed on stoney ground.
You’re mixing your metaphors there…
I know, thankfully my drinks aren’t metaphorical and I like them mixed too.

Should we try this again?
Just leave it? We’ll never agree so what’s the point?
I notice you haven’t attempted to engage with any of my points, you’ve just tried to derail the conversation with a pedantic argument about the meaning of a word that everyone understands. That’s what you normally do when you’ve lost an argument. So yeah, let’s leave it.
What a thoroughly charming person you are. I resend the invite.
Because you can’t play the post, you play the man. Oh the irony. You’d go utterly beserk if I posted what I really thought and to be honest, I’ve had enough fucking this fucking that from you. There’s nothing pedantic about clarity.
And you’re right, I am transphobic. Last time I saw a man in a wig I had to jump onto a chair and scream.
I suggest we leave it and you agree AFTER the shitty comment. Classy, possibly even world classy.
This morning I posted a very long response to your argument about Biology and the history of our species. You have totally ignored it, and instead tried to shift the goalposts on to a bizarre tangent about the literal definition of the word transphobia. You are in no position to have a pop at anyone else for not engaging properly.
This is debating at the level of a child. You know what you are doing. You have disregarded everything put to you that explains why your argument is bollocks, and are focussing on this phobia thing as a distraction. It’s pathetic.
And sorry? Man in a wig? Seriously?
I think this topic is a difficult one to discuss, even with close friends. For it to be worthy in a forum like this, it has to be done in a spirit of good faith and humility. Otherwise it goes to shit.
We have lots of engaging and intelligent posters in here, and when we are at our best I often find myself reading and learning something, and it is an enriching experience.
Perhaps this thread needs a temporary closure and a chance for a reset? Hopefully where Klopptimist and Mascot take it private, and find a way to get along better so we can function, or if not, then agree to avoid each other?
I don’t know what the solution is, but it feels like it needs a time out.

I remember you used to have a sense of humour.
As for the rest, you probably didn’t notice my two posts suggesting we drop it. I won’t now have the last word or the obvious retort.
I’ll just stop.
Thanks for your compliment
We could drop it but what will happen is in a little while, when the next story is posted, you’ll drop some trite meaningless bullshit about biological facts and the history of the species. We’re now on the third or fourth cycle of this particular argument, and you’ve been told multiple times by different people why these aren’t the slam dunk argument killers you think they are. And yet you staunchly and resolutely refuse to be remotely open to learning a fucking thing.
Calling trans people ‘men in wigs’ has never been funny. You don’t get to post hateful shit and then do the ‘it’s just a joke’ defence.

I actually struggle to comprehend how your brain works. It was obviously a light hearted comment. Read it back. If anybody thinks that’s hateful (except @mascot) do please let me know.
Oh and just to keep the theme going I’ll throw some fucks in fuck fuck fuck fuck. Should do it. None of them aimed at you though, you’ll note. Or not.
Why don’t we fucking leave it?
4th time.
which goes back to this

those are your opinions, clearly stated above. not facts, because you don’t know.
Thus, this conversation is then open to discussion. There will be opinions you clearly don’t like. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and a lot of the time it’s just shit.

best take that statement back to the beginnings of nCov-19 and see how well the WHO performed on that pandemic. At the end of the day, the mandated vaccines didn’t do SHIT to keep people from getting the virus, just lessened the severity of it. However on some instances, the side effects of the vaccine were worse than the virus itself. Now we’ve got a bunch of anti-vaxxers running around spreading conspiracy theories and refusing to get their kids done up for rabies, mumps, rubella, smallpox, etc etc. it’s a shambles. we’re literally going backwards.
