[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 1052425, member: 55747"] Then maybe if you are truly interested in a constructive conversation you should be asking me some questions as opposed to calling someone a conspiracy theorist. I can pinpoint what I like and dislike about RE actions and what I dislike. Same about WR's. You just start namecalling, dodging the issue, apply that selective memory of yours (the folau thing on this thread was a beauty given how the case ended) and if push comes to shove, you just play the mod card like you've done in the past and use an argument form authority. Other than when I am breaking a forum rule, why don't we just ignore each other? You provide no argument whatsoever and just called the opposing view tin foil material. Thanks but no. You only comment on the bad and have made no effort whatsoever in finding a common ground. What's the point. I've asked a few quite important questions on this thread to which I have received no answer, yet. Those questions explain my position. No one, NO ONE has even attempted to answer them. Ok, Old Hooker gave it a shot, fair enough. I thought it was not a good shot and explained, i believe in detail, why. Let me point you in the right direction. Old Hooker's last post. 7 Likes. Mine and 6 others. Guess what the flags of every one of the 6 posters say? I'll give you a hint: starts with u and ends with k. They all support the same team that's on this very tour. I might have a bias, sure. [B]Please point it out[/B] but kindly provide at the very least an iota of evidence to back it up. Something along the line: "you clearly want the B&I lions to lose because xyz." You have skin in the game, you support one of the teams. I do not. You think i am biased? Ok, how and why? You can even challenge my view "i do not believe you because hjk"? But at the very least have some dignity and justify your arguments before you start labelling others'. That's why your post is mind-boggling. Your behaviour on this thread, actually on the forum in general, is a textbook example of someone comfortable in his echo chamber. I am looking for pretty much the opposite and that is why I participate in a forum where I don't get to use my native language, where the overwhelming majority of people are not from the same place as I am, different backgrounds, education, culture, etc. I want to see what people from other places and different backgrounds think about certain issues. Truly, sincerely understand them. For the lack of a better word, learn. Doesn't mean i have to agree with them. I am quite eager to listen to what others have to say, and I am willing to review and correct my position. Not easily, course, I need arguments, but I am willing to stand corrected. You are just interested in confirming your bias. That's the difference. Again, let's ignore each other's posts. For the record, if i am ever supporting a position that every argentine here agrees with and most of the people with no skin in the game do not, please let me know. I will love to be aware of that when and if it happens. [/QUOTE]
