Nah, people try once or twice, see that you're more interested in defending yourself than seeing anything new and give up. Sometimes they just make fun of you for a while after that for the lulz.
I know you'll insist that this isn't what's happening but so it goes.
The number one misconception with posters on this forum is the belief that opposing opinions equal stupidity. Do you honestly believe that I don't realize the truth in your statement? The fact that you are implying that I don't understand that concept makes it even more ironic when you refuse to accept that I'm equally "toying" with you.
I've said numerous times over, I love to debate and it becomes blatantly obvious when the poster doesn't make any effort in explaining their position IN A DEBATE, then they have no position. I'm not talking about two or more attempts of an explanation, I'm talking about ONE attempt.
Nadenu (Samira? I forget) made a comment about "where does it stop?". I responded and their response to my comment was "You don't understand and I"m not going to explain" which really meant "I was wrong but I'm not going to admit to it".
I knew I hit the nail on the head, so that's why I said "oh, ok explain it to me". I realized that it was a possibility that I did misunderstand it, but not likely. Their lack of explanation supported my claim.

Being on the winning side of that equation, I don't have any real incentive to bang my head trying to convince you otherwise.
Winning side? Well, if you argue both sides, you are technically "correct" in at least one way.

If it makes you feel any better, Gbaji is the same way and is, like you, convinced that the only reason he gets so much sh*t (far more than other conservatives) is because he's some special little martyr-flower who no one else understands and not because of any particular character traits on his part.
Whether you admit it or not, we are "special", not in the sense that you are implying, but in the sense that we are the minority in most views. That isn't an opinion but a fact. The more we disagree on topics, the more that builds against our overall "image".
As I pointed out in this thread and many others, when posters only focus on countering my arguments when other posters equally disagree, you can't deny the obvious. In this thread, someone made this absurd statement that Europeans came to the "U.S" and called it "America" so because it was called "America" first, then they deserve the right to be called "American". Not only is that obviously wrong, no one else believes that, yet no one made any countering statement to it. At the same time, posters spent 2-3 pages arguing with me on the usage of "America/n".
So, you can live in delusion all you want, but it's blatantly obvious what's going on.

That's how it was for me. A post or two trying to get him to understand and then the rest trolling him. I can't even be bothered to troll him anymore though.
That's because you fail at trolling, Mr. "I'm ignoring you".
