I did address it quite directly, in my first post on this thread (first page).
since joining THIS forum, yet YOU are responding to the present reasonableness with emotion based on your perception of the past.
...and then again, later on:
this site, which I have never been a member of
That's pretty funny... You're acting like this is some brand new forum with no ties to anything and you're just a brand new member and I'm bringing up some weird distant past that has little or nothing to do with "THIS" forum. Yeah right.
negative antagonistic stupid political vitriol
Even funnier... These are some strong words. Find me ANYTHING in my post that actually "accuses" you of anything or is qualified as "stupid political vitriol". The past is the past and older members know what I was talking about (and the newer ones don't need to) and I wanted THEM (the old ones) to hear what I think about this. With or without Your Majesty's permission or agreement.
could have PM'd me as I offered, but no one has and that is on you
Funnier yet... I've no idea how the hell is the fact that no one so far has contacted you in PM is "on me".
issue you feel is black and white and simple that you are only slightly informed about
You have absolutely no idea about my level of being informed about it; I'll just leave it at that.
I [...] have more facts that reveal it to be quite complicated and not cut and dried [...] a complicated and compounded situation. This, is also a form of maturity; accepting that events really are as complicated as they are, even if what you want is a simple answer. If you cannot deal with that level of honesty, that is just going to be your issue.
Nope, "maturity" and "honesty" would be to openly talk about it. Yes, IN PUBLIC (e.g. in BTDT).
that is a lie [...] you ... do not have either the decency or the courage
Now there's maturity, decency and courage. Well done!
It's a fear of direct engagement.
Nah, you wish. It's more like not wanting to step into a pile of shit... (Although I guess technically you might call that "fear", I'll give you that. )
Nothing to discuss...
Yes, I had NOTHING to discuss, like I said I was making a statement, not initiating a discussion. But, naturally, you threw some personal attacks to draw me out anyway. I should have known better.
