We passed in hyper ole town a long time ago.
Yea its been escalating. Very common when a person runs out of runway for their argument.
I have no real issue with admits. Like yea its bad faith argument but nothing so vile that i had to raise ajy real issues.

You obviously never heard of sarcasm. That's what I was using (in the context of the discussion) while "standing my ground" after your rather bullyish suggestion I should "move on".

sometimes it doesn't translate well to plain text, especially when you don't have any real conversation history with a person. I have known people to mask real contempt as sarcasm in the past which is also difficult to determine in this context.
Sometimes it's useful to incorporate some kind of indicator that you are being sarcastic if a risk of confusion exists.
@thatguyoverthere @admitsWrongIfProven @freemo @lmrocha @pj as long as this thread is going nowhere good 😆 earlier I mentioned pysch meds as a possible contributor. Well lookie here... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11965687/Louisville-shooter-Connor-Sturgeon-treated-depression-anxiety.html 25 yo male who was probably on SSRIs and/or anxiolytics. SSRIs cause a hypomanic state (rage monster) in some young males. And they are not all that effective in treating depression either. Some controlled studies have failed to replicate that they even work better than placebo.
@freemo @thatguyoverthere @admitsWrongIfProven @mike805 @lmrocha
Why do you think it's a bad faith argument?
@pj @thatguyoverthere @admitsWrongIfProven @mike805 @lmrocha
In tbis case im refering to the fact that he is just trolling at this point. Earlier it wasnt bad faith... but also no important, he isnt doing anything wrong.
@freemo @thatguyoverthere
Yes, a little bit of an agitated reaction from @admitsWrongIfProven but nothing so overblown or any major excalation as the two of you are presenting it.
And you may agree that a heavily armed person with unresolved issues and no social support or interactions is a very scarry proposition.
