Why should I engage with your chosen subject? I’m not interested. The only reason I even opened the post was because of the downvotes, not the premise or title.
And when I did, I found you, actively, either accidentally, or intentionally, pissing people off. You’re being abrasive and adversarial. You’re either trolling, or inadvertently turning everyone away from the thing you actually wanted to discuss.
I don’t care whether it’s deliberate, the explanation for why you should stop is the same.
Yet, you feel the need to continue to go “nu-uh, everyone else is the problem” even as the number of people telling you otherwise, and just the general disapproval, increases.
“Ground yourself in the observable.” How people react when you say and do things, is part of the observable, my friend.
If I succeed, I’ll have made you nicer to talk to. I’m a lot more invested in that. Probably not for me. You likely hate my guts about now, and wont admit it to me even if do make you rethink things.

Remember way back when I suggested that you return to discussing my point?

This is a non-response.
Read and reply to what is said, or don’t respond at all.
Anything else is a pathetic attempt to feel like you got the last word.

To be clear, your extended tangent into clumsy self-stroking is no fun for me. I want no part of it. My point, otoh, interests me.

Stop trying to dictate how people engage. And also, of the two of you, only you appear to be engaging in “self stroking”.

Then stop replying.
Or derailing your own thread by being an ass, for that matter.
