In particular, a long time ago I asked you and your allies

"Me and my allies."

I refuse to frame a debate in such terms for obvious reasons and am despondent you have chosen them. Honestly I think you are being mind-killed about this and are pattern matching my positions to ones I just don't hold.

You are completely correct. This was indeed indefensible and inexcusable of me, and pretty much a direct spit upon your goodwill. I was frustrated by my inability to "get even" with an opposing group that has long trumpeted its honesty and accused my views of hypocrisy. I let this primitive emotion get the better of me.

Such little things are what shits up the whole discourse. I understand and agree. I'm sorry.

Up voted. I hope you know you have no more hard feelings from me on this.
