Yeah, I tend to agree. I ignored him for years, but this last time he returned, he has said some ridiculous stuff that just begs to be blown up, it's so insane, as the election nears.
Of course, he will never concede even a minor point, so to me, the fun is watching him twist himself into a pretzel trying to defend his asinine positions.
His tactics are typical slimy lawyer moves in front of a jury. He will pick one or two words or a sentence out of a full post, go after that, and ignore the rest of the post.
Or, he will respond to something you said in an earlier post that had nothing to do with the one you quoted, so no one can easily see the pertinent argument, which then requires you to go back and dig through everything to copy and paste the pertinent part, and it just becomes too tedious to bother doing.
Or, he will just invent a straw man, and hit that.
In almost any thread he chooses to jump in, he typically winds up with about 20-25% of the posts, no matter how long the thread is. So they never end.
But I wonder how it goes if we all just agree to completely ignore him? Then maybe he would disappear again for a few more months, or maybe permanently.
