Why? Wouldn't you rather debate him to prove him wrong?
What world would we live in if we only surrounded ourselves with people we agree with?
Oh, wait.
Because a die-hard nazi is so going to listen to me.
Sometimes, you just gotta remove the problem, rather than try to talk it away.

Exactly. As I said way earlier this morning, and some people seem to repeatedly miss the point...
people are not required to show up to every argument they are invited to. Sometimes it's better to just be the bigger person and walk away. It's the immature ones that always need to have the last word or pick a fight that are the problematic ones.

If and when he does leave, one way or the other, it won't be because of his views. I just want to put that out there so it's clear.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I'm out, not worth any trouble, therefore i'm just gonna ignore them.
And that's of course fair, Stimbo. Even though i disagree with him, i know it'd be wrong for him to be banned for his views. Not exactly something that a forum for debating wants to do, is it? (And just making sure, none of that was sarcasm, in case it comes off like that.)

I, personally, know that, of course. Which is why I tried to convince him to play by the rules, so he can participate in discussion on these forums without getting banned from them. It seemed to work, at least a bit.

Jfc, I'm gonna laugh so hard it hurts at the irony of some people. It's like pot, meet kettle. And they still don't get it.

I've tried putting certain people here on ignore. The features of the forum make it increasingly difficult to maintain that point of no contact. I do try, but I'm only human and in the end, it just doesn't work for me. Especially when I see someone else being targeted in their own post by an insulate little prick who want's to provoke shit and then act like it never happened.

Then respond with violence.
