Read this if you want and don't if you don't
I don't know you and you don't know me. Right? I have no idea about what you like or don't like other than in your original post you say ONLY that
you agree with the video. You then offer NO insight as to what the video relates to. Correct?
Now I also know that ATS frowns on slapping up a video and offering no comment or description of the content. Correct?
You then say
Civil discussion welcome.
I had begun to view your video and after several minutes still had no idea about what it was you were posting about
I replied
Civil discussion? Ok you start. What do you think?
You offer nothing but a two hour video and I considered my request quite civil.
You then came replied with this
Um?
I already said what I think in the OP?
I reread your OP and saw that you had edited the original version and added some content and comment so I replied with this.
I guess that I and American-philosopher replied before you came back to the OP and added your views in your EDIT.
Here I explain how I missed your edited comments to explain my original reply.
You then replied with
Yet when I answered you the edit had not yet happened.
That took place hours later on the advice of someone not just looking for a fight.
How am I to know when the OP was edited? All I know is that for the first hour or so, others were also in the dark as to what you were posting about.
And again your first reply to me was that you had stated your opinions, which I re-iterate now, you had not at that time.
But then you say that I am looking for a fight, and I was stunned. I had made no comment that I might consider uncivil yet somehow you had taken my
words in this manner.
Then you demean my demeanor. First you say I am looking for a fight, which I was not, and then you demean my demeanor and you know what? Now you have
my dander up a bit.
You then make an attempt to dismiss me from this dialogue by claiming a desire to stay within the rules as set forth by ATS , which I may point out,
had little bearing on your thoughts when putting up your OP.
So now, I will be done with it.
