: Unless you've already left America, I'm pretty sure we're
: on the same continent.
Didn't you say you were European sometime? Sry bout that, mate! My bad. ;)
: For the record, in answer to your other post, I think
: this thread took a turn for the political right around
: here...

Perhaps you haven't really heard of it, but there's a type of speech known as sarcasm. Then, perhaps you just haven't known me long enough to recognize my sarcasm, or instead, you could be like Seraph, and you're unable to recognize sarcasm, period (in print) (no offense, Seraph! ;). Whatever the case, that post was intended "sarcastically." =)
: I guess somewhere along the line you got the impression
: that I have some sort of beef with your politics. I
: really couldn't care less what you believe
: politically. If you'll look back at what I've said, my
: beef has been with your style. You happily fed into
: this thread reciting your views and telling others why
: they were wrong without ever offering support for your
: argument. Perhaps you felt you didn't need to support
: your views for people you don't know, and that's fine.
: But if that's the case, why mention them at all?
: What's the point?
But of course. As said previously, I was not attempting to convert people, merely to state my opinion (in a humorous manner, btw; if you do not find my manner humorous, that's really just your problem), as I usually do with things not concerning Myth. I don't even care enough about my own opinions to try to back them up. All I do is tell them to you. (rhyming is fun...) ;)
: I have no interest in trying to change your views. I
: don't even know how you could be sure I would disagree
: with your views. But if you insist on sharing your
: views with everyone, in the interests of proper
: discourse, offer some support for them.
What if I don't want to? >)
Nobody cares
: what you or I believe if we don't support those
: beliefs. And if nobody cares, why mention them at all
: and risk jumping the rails and going as far off topic
: as we are now?
I believe you're the one who took it this far... All the rest of us have already moved on to "types" of government. I dunno why you're still stuck in this rut, so don't look to me for answers... ;)
: If I want to talk politics, I'll find some one interested
: in, or capable of doing so. And if you want to throw
: around empty, substanceless comments designed,
: seemingly, for the sole purpose of inflaming others, I
: suggest you do the same. My problem isn't with liberal
: or conservative, my problem is with words without
: purpose.
That's more or less what most of what we discuss here aside from Myth is intended to be... And so far as I'm concerned, any support I would think of giving for political arguments, especially on a Myth forum, is meaningless.

Domy!
