The mocking of Carol based on her age was a separate example of the double standards and hypocrisy of that group. I didn't mean to imply it was the same thing as the happy exclusion of others from their ingroup.

How did they "ban" people from a space for not being LGBTQ when Jenny and Teja were also there?

I think you're confused about what you watched.

We clearly use LGBT here as a shorthand. It clearly includes approved allies.

I am sorry, I assumed that people would be bright enough to understand that, outside of pedantic gotchaisms.

Just because someone dismantled your point with ease doesn't mean you need to resort to personal attacks, dear. Just do better next time.

OK, point taken, next time I will not assume a level of comprehension and will detail every single point out so that some of the slower members can understand.

'dismantled'

Once again, just more cringeworthy personal attacks because you got proven wrong. Grow up love.

Was this personal against you?

I think that your reading comprehension is letting you down again.

I think you need to work on your reading comprehension.

You compared it to a Christian community banning trans people from a space. If you weren't referring to last night's episode of Big Brother, then where did that comparison come from? Reading comprehension is fine, your points just don't make a lot of sense.

Did you read the whole conversation? Do I need to explain the meaning of context to you?

You clearly missed what was being said in context of the entire conversation, to just then complain that it 'doesn't make sense'.

It did, you just didn't understand it.

I responded to a specific comment you made.

You implied that the Zelah/Feyisola group had banned people from a space in the house because they were not LGBTQ. When that was proven to be patently untrue you started this mental gymnastics and random attacks about how someone can't read or whatever just because they pointed out that what you said was incorrect. Sorry that it bothered you so much.

You responded to single part of a wide ranging conversation and then tried to pretend that there all there was in an effort to cry 'gotcha'.

It was pedantic and cheap.

I do not imply anything in what I say, I state my points very clearly. If you see anything else past what has been said then that is just in your imagination.

If I point out that it is either your reading comprehension or dishonesty that is the problem here then that's what I mean.

I would have been far more polite to you if you had engaged in good faith, but you started this from a point of a snarky 'gotcha' so I feel no need to treat you with respect at this point.

The conversation you drew from was actually pretty good and very civil, which is the sad thing.

Again, I am sorry that the fact I pointed out you were talking bollocks with that point inspired you to feel this upset but that's not my problem. Take the L and move on.

Abra, why are you working so hard at this?

Honestly, it's just a barrage of you trying to make out that you have upset me and claiming some kind of vague 'win'. You add nothing at all of worth to anything said in this thread up till this point. What are you even gaining here?

You seem to be in a war that's really only going on inside your own head, striking out when it's simply suggested to you that you didn't understand the point you were trying use use to score points with.

Because you clearly didn't.

But, ok, you win, you are the biggest brain here. I bend the knee to your clear genius.

Hopefully this can stop now and we can move on.
