Name-calling defeats the purpose

[MrReason]

When I see someone call someone else a name, I immediately dismiss their argument.

For instance, someone here called Rush Limbaugh a “pill-popper.” While that was true in his past, he no longer does that, has admitted to it, and sought treatment.

So when I saw someone post about “Quid Pro Joe and Kamal Toe,” I immediately dismissed it because that is in Joe Biden’s past, and the other accusation, so far, is unfounded.

How do you feel about racial slurs or homophobic slurs?

I don’t use them.

They fall into the “name-calling” category, whether it’s from a homophobe, straight, white, or rap music.

Name calling is a typical Liberal thing. Just look at the vicious attacks on this board. The Hate Hounds have an excellent track record.

Yep.

I’ve been called many nasty names and told “F—-You!” several times.

Yet, I refuse to resort to name-calling. It’s against the rules here, and I won’t do it.

Our staff researchers are still puzzled by this post...

I know. Why would anyone call me names?
