I can't figure it out. I always get into some stupid flamewar that I admit is always MY fault! And a lot of members don't even like me, so why the hell do I keep coming back? I must be some kind of stupid troll who doesn't realize he's a troll!

And I bet bet I'll get banned again won't I?

The other guy sort of started it by posting that video. He doesn’t like leftists too much.

I think he was talking about how our culture has become depraved, rather than gays, per se.

Sometimes, you go a little overboard. Sometimes, it’s just not worth arguing.

I dont think you were both idiots. I think you both got blinded by your passions.

It's my fault I'm afraid. My mere presence here makes this place too alluring.

I think that this was somewhat of a communication problem. To broach such a conversation in a tactful way would not be an easy thing to do.

It’s hard not to get upset when it’s something that you feel strongly about.

I snapped again like I always do. :( I need to control my temper, but it's hard.

Maybe politics is something to stay out of? That topic can bring the worst out in people, NT and neurodiverse. Which is the reason why many places don't allow politics, same as internet groups.

I think the problem is I actually do enjoy dicussing politics, religion, and world issues. It's interesting. But I have a short fuse and I need to work on that. :oops:

Working on something through posting is a good reason to stick around. I think I have received a certain amount of refinement over the years here through trial and error.

You keep coming back to WP because...you crave the pain.

And why not?

Many religions say that mortification of the flesh is good for the soul. :D

The same reason I keep coming back. WP is very addictive.
