I think I opened up Pandora’s Box with this thread... But hey, once you're in, there's no turning back

Grace, I know what my quote is. It's in black and white. I'm not sure what disconnected wires prevent you from understanding this but let me try it again in simple terms: You say things other people don't say and then claim to be quoting them.
Nobody, me included, needs you to copy and paste shit like you're making some point. I challenged you to show where I stated what you claim I stated and you ran to the closet to see if your mothballs are still fresh.
I brought your granny into it? When did that happen?
Why would I do that? As I wrote my best friend doesn’t believe mtf should play in women’s sports (she’s a former d1 college vball player) but also on reflection acknowledged the issue is more complicated than she thought. That, unlike some of the little boys here, is classy. And veritas too has been open to examining his priors, which is classy. Even dad4 and watfly (much to my confusion) is to the left of me on drag shows. That’s classy. The issue is with the slobis of the world and those that nod along with him.
Veritas did admit to a subtle bias that he doesn’t like being touched by other men. But he’s aware of it, which is all we can ask.
Kind of like... "we've been to the border. Well, not really. I haven't been to Europe, either. What's your point?"
Like that?
Did I say that? Didn't think so.

I like to keep things real Slobo. I did not pursue a gay massage man. Troy was recommended from a dear friend. Troy helps to pen point each knot in the tight places. The stress to have to make $15K+ a month to pay for youth sports, a wife and happiness for everyone took a toll on my lower back. All these years later, I have no back pain because of TROY
What part of this is wrong. You say the person”will become a target” if you decide not to forfeit. You say is the person “walks in the same bathroom” as you daughter ( you did not say do anything wrong or qualify what you meant by “man” beyond your ongoing slur). And you declared violence “willingly or by the throat” and that you’d “take your chances with the jury”. Moreover this is now your ninth chance to clarify what you meant if you meant something different and yet you still don’t clarify.
Buddy, I support you making a grown man decision for yourself.
... but you'd better get Mrs. Doubtfire's approval or there will be 5 pages of thread Hell to pay.
I guess I take a different approach. I take people's comments at face value without extrapolating some ulterior meaning or applying to other issues not in evidence. Except if someone orders their steak well done. Then I make all sorts of assumptions about the persons character.
You accused me of directly hurting a minor boy playing in a girl's league and beating a tranny to death in the bathroom.
Not really the same thing, is it? Nevermind... you misquote everybody. You either can't, or won't, recognize your disability.
That fair. Buts it’s different when ethical issues are being considered because there are a variety of different ways to look at the same problem. It’s the only way to get to “Veritas” or truth of the matter. Because otherwise we are just blinded by our biases, which we all have.
The biggest challenge incoming law students have (until the paper chase came out at least assuming they’ve watched it) is they come in thinking they are just going to memorize a bunch of rules. Instead they learn the law is fluid and filled with conflicting principles and questioning is not only the only way to arrive at truth, it is also the only way to learn how to think as a lawyer, philosopher or ethical person.
Hmm...
Adversarialism, eh? Alright then, to start I want to point out that philosophers have been pushing this macho schtick from the beginning. Socrates is indeed their hero; if only they could do what he does, whether it be reducing their debating partners to silence or, even better, extracting succinct concessions to their intellectual superiority: “Yes, Socrates,” “You are quite right, Socrates,” “That is indeed true, Socrates,” “I dare say, Socrates,” and so on…
Socrates was an asshole. Imagine how frustrating it must have been to try and explore ideas with this elenchic-obsessed wanker who never, ever listens. Don’t believe them when they tell you that he raised his questions in good faith! In fact, not once in all of Plato’s so-called dialogues does Socrates say something like “you’re right, I was mistaken” or “I never thought of it that way before” or “thank you, I’ve really learned something here.” One translation of the ancient Greek “dia-” is “between,” which tells us that genuine dialogue requires at least two interlocutors (since only that way can there be a between) each of whom is open to being changed by what they hear. Otherwise, you get only unidirectional monologue. “It wasn’t at all like conversation,” thought Alice, “as he never said anything to her.”

Now you are putting words into my mouth. I specifically said you couldn’t hurt the minor because you wouldn’t be allowed on the field…you’d have to instruct your daughter and teammates to do the targeting if you refused to forfeit. I never said “to death”. I accused you of using violence which “by the throat” and “don’t care what the jury says” certainly is. “By the throat” is a legal battery. I then invited you to clarify what you meant. This is your tenth opportunity which is what you’ve refused repeatedly to take.
This is a very fair and thoughtful criticism of Socrates himself, but not necessarily his method. Jesus engaged in violence at turning over the temple, played favorites and it was Paul who brought the message to the gentiles. Muhammad engaged in what many consider questionable behavior. Ghadijii was a stubborn fool at times, was a bully and also engaged in questionable behavior. All fair critiques. Thinkers be flawed.Hmm...

Nevermind. I beyond done with this attention seeking behavior from you. It's all there for anyone who cares about it now... meaning "Grace T."
I wrote what I meant. No need for some "invitation" from you. Time to move on now. Call me whatever you like.
You still claiming I badmouthed your grandmother?
Since I’m not a granny what other granny is there? The only other granny around was my mom…you talking about her?
As to “go cry to your mother” you know that means I’m calling you, not your mother, a whiny little baby instead of a real man but apparently pew didn’t pick up on that.
