People here are insulting me.

...
addendum: For what it's worth, Mao was a thug who was willing to sacrifice innocents on a truly horrific scale in an attempt to justify an unworkable socio-economic model.

Nah! That's just western propaganda.

He was a national hero, anti-imperialist, fought on the side of the Allies of World War II, overthrew the feudal landlords and freed his people from totalitarian serfdom.

What's not to like about a guy who can organise a party?

Words of wisdom: Wanna get that cute Chinese hottie into bed? Then, don't go calling her hero a thug.

Just sayin'.

Funny you say that; I've got the app on my phone.

I just joined several days ago, haven't started that many threads or responded in many threads yet people here are insulting me from the beginning.

Is this allowed in the forum? If so, then can I insult them back?

Look, in all seriousness, not just on this website but in real life, to expect 7 billion humans to always say nice things and never bitch about others is absurd.

I do think this website if I am not mistaken, does offer a block on individuals so you don't have to view their posts.

I bast your claims because they are absurd. If you are going to take it personally you are only hurting yourself. Instead of assuming everyone hates you you need to consider that you have it wrong. Human rights deserve value.

None of the admins as far as I can tell at this website will ban you for merely making claims. But your claims do not deserve taboo status even if you are allowed to claim them.

I was bullied as a kid. I get a lip twitch when people here who are not being forced to post here cry foul. If someone was forcing you to post via gunpoint, then I would agree that you are being bullied.

You know what you are into, so it is your choice what you post or even to post. But if someone here wants to pick it apart or make fun of it, then you can't complain.

Christians, Jews, Gays and atheists living in Iran are bullied and even arrested and murdered. You are merely offended.

What is worse Brian is that this precious little thing is TAKING offence at any and all things that his puny little mind does not agree with. He's been banned from a few sites for similar behaviour.

I would recommend a cup of concrete for this little one so that he/ she can "harden the fuck up" the world is not a nice place full of fluffy bunnies and unicorns that fart rainbows

You know what kills me? I am dealing with some well intended liberal atheists on another website who think I am being too mean to religion.

Holly crap are they spoiled. I get the good intent. But when you have Christians and gays and atheists and non Shiites who risk arrest and physical harm in places like Iran and Pakistan it makes me vomit when they say "You're being an asshole".

If "assholes" were the worst humanity had to worry about the world would be a much more peaceful place.

This is true Brian

The world is falling apart and the only thing that occupies the plebeian mind is what the other guy is fucking or getting?

Oi vay!

That's the thing. Why are liberal theists or atheists worried about my cussing and blasphemy when I am not demanding arrest or having people murdered? Isn't the real offense what is done in the name of religion?

People are insulting you for very good reason, namely:

Were you drunk when you posted that?

I don't think that I was not far from not being drunk, though I negate not being far from the opposite of being sober, while not fully admitting that I could or could not be entirely unsure of the truth or false response.

...but maybe, and maybe not.

A gentleman would never ask a lady such a question. So long as she doesn't actively object, he should just do her.

Nah, I probably can't do that at least until I retire. Then watch out.

Is this why you wont until you retire?

I haven't been too careful to hide my tracks lets say. I prefer to think I don't have anything to hide, but even more to the point I doubt I have the savvy to hide it anyhow. Better to assume that everything is traceable back to me.

I wouldn't want to be responsible for the years of therapy necessary to expunge the image of one's math teacher's digit. Not to mention the awkward meetings with their parents.

I don't mind my opinions and sense of humor being on display. But I'd prefer not to deprive you of whatever fantasy you may be nursing regarding my equipment. Perhaps I'll have a coming out party when I retire, no more than three more years.

"Banned from a few sites". You mean one? You have to lie about someone to make yourself feel important. A moderator from that site did advise me to not start threads that contain certain topics. I thought it was stupid to not be able to talk about Israel's horrible treatment and racist bias against other ethnicities and races. So I got banned.
