        Ooh ooh - name calling! What perfect timing to illustrate the point being made.
        Who exactly did I call a "name" in that post?

        In that post I've not said any particular person on this thread is disabled mentally or physically, I've not quoted/misquoted or quoted out of context.

          Who was your comment aimed at? The "name" being:

          youth wing of the National Farage/Neil Front/Nigel Fromage fan club

            Comments do not need to be "aimed at" anyone.

            You know, sometimes it's possible to play the ball, not the man. It's possible to debate and discuss ideas without attacking individuals.

            ...but sometimes responses perfectly illustrate the point being made, eh?

              Ok let's debate and discuss the idea of "the youth wing of the National Farage/Neil Front/Nigel Fromage fan club"

              What's your position on this 'idea'?

                      Good boy, Bean. But what was the point in posting evidence that some people call some people Nazis, as an attempt to rebut my point?

                      Did you not understand my last answer? I kept it simple for you.
                      Bless. My point is that, usually, anyone disagreeing with e.g. the transgender lobby is called a fascist and/or Nazi. However, you are correct that, this doesn't equate to someone disagreeing with anything someone else says. There are a few topics this happens with (and mainly in the USA): Trump, Wage gap, transgenderism.


                      I understood it, but just don't feel you're being genuine, hence my repeating. i.e. Why did you make post #58 at all, if you completely understood my answer in post #57, which had already answered the question to both post #56 & #58 ?

                      Perhaps you agreed with misunderstanding my post, but disagreed with being labelled special?

                      Perhaps it was the duplicate posting forum bug?

                      Perhaps it's simply a case of an older person repeating themselves?
