Debating is most of the time about having different opinions mack.
However, once you see clear facts to a discussed subject and you keep trying to peddle the same opinion, then you are closing your eyes to the truth and it is not an opinion anymore. It is more like a desperate attempt at clinging to something you'd wish would be true.
I asked you many questions completely outside of any MSM content. You rarely bothered to answer them and instead deflected to another often fringe theory....similar to the MAGA cult deflecting with "but Hillary's emails".
If you had the feeling that I ever attacked you personally, that was never my intention and I apologize for that. I say thinks like "are you that blinkered?" because you often resist to look at facts and keep insisting on bits of information that is typically found in conspiracy theory forums.
Several people have remarked to me they don't know how I put up with some of the replies directed at me, and tbh I have developed a certain amount of immunity to the slights and attacks, up to a point it goes with the territory but this year [I guess for various factors] it's gone up a notch.
Still it's not something I'd report as I don't believe in that approach to debates on an adult forum, and if the staff reading see no problem, will have to suck it up; but it is toxic - no better word to describe it really - to members on the receiving end and probably neutral readers.
[People often say social media is toxic, so no doubt it's endemic elsewhere on the internet too.]
I'm sure my posts and those of others can be challenged or disagreed with, without the need for blatant rudeness. Vorcirion's post above is typical, basically stating to my eyes, he intends to carry on attempting to wind up and annoy people he disagrees with...in the end no one will want to post and engage as a result.
Re this biden story I'm not so biased not to realise giuliani isn't capable of tricks, but I'm still interested to see whether the story has legs. If the 2nd debate had gone ahead, we'd be discussing that instead no doubt.

- and as an added bonus, what would Trump look like if he were Asian... 

. He's certainly leaving/scrapping all treaties/alliances he can. Selling a faux "golden future", very much like it happened in the UK, and the blind/deaf sheeple will follow him into the abyss.
