You’re confusing frustration at the consistently negative and non-constructive content and tone of your comments with a personal attack.
No one wants to hear non-constructive negativity all day long. Come up with something constructive.

You sure got that one wrong.

Then stop writing it. Ad hominem attacks on commenters that with whom you disagree add nothing but irrelevant negativity.
On the other hand, mass extinction is not a very constructive or positive thing, but it needs to be talked about.
And advocating for a new Democratic Leader instead of bought-and-paid-for Nancy Pelosi is a constructive thing.
No democracy, no justice.
I appreciate the question. It’s not really how I look at things but, because you’re asking, I will try to address it.
Here’s that line I noticed in your criticism of @georgeh:
any time someone does start to do something constructive you scream about that too.
This criticism simply posits that the thing he is criticizing here is fairly described as “something constructive.” It ignores the fact that this particular “something constructive” is itself questionable.
So the question persists: Why is this new committee “constructively” designed to be significantly less powerful than its predecessor?
For what it’s worth, I’m pretty sure @georgeh would like an answer as much as you and I would!

Yes, I agree, but that does not mean those comments are justified.
(And I agree also that such unjustified comments rarely come from you.)

Are you saying the committee should be abandoned because it was established by Pelosi? @georgeh attacks everything Pelosi does simply because it’s Pelosi. It’s what he does. Are you in agreement with that?

No, of course not.
If that’s what you understood from the “legitimate questions” I highlighted, then …

The frustration here is the drip drip drip of constant negativity. The repetitiveness of it with the same thing over and over and over. It’s not one comment per se. It’s the cumulative effect those consistently negative and non-constructive comments have.
But I (and others) did in fact respond to the arguments, which let’s recap what they were:
- Humans are going to die
- Global warming = cancer
- Pelosi is evil
- Everything Pelosi does has an evil motivation
- The human race is going to become extinct because global warming = cancer
Each and every one of those has been addressed.
And btw, cancer is also inevitable. If you live long enough, you’ll eventually get cancer.

Nancy Pelosi has shown little advocacy to do what desperately needed to be done to prevent global warming her entire career. She has not and still does not treat the threat of mass extinction with the gravity and urgency it requires, and this new “Climate Crisis Committee” is just another example of that.
But you still want to make this discussion about me. Sheesh.

We’ve already addressed your belief that Pelosi is the most evil human being on the planet. You’ve never convinced anyone of that and the reason you’ve never convinced anyone is because all you do is shout, panic, and make non-constructively negative comments about everything.
If a different person than you were doing that, s/he’d get the same reaction.

You know what’s amusing?
Others may be frustrated by “the rah-rah-rah of constant cheerleading. The repetitiveness of it with the same thing over and over and over. It’s not one comment per se. It’s the cumulative effect.”
In my view, frustration of any kind does not justify abuse of any sort.
Right.
Keep ignoring those questions.

I also get frustrated by that and have called it out on occasion. My doing so is one reason I’m so unpopular here. My irascible nature is another reason.
Abusers get called out. That’s what you see yourself doing, right? @georgeh is abusive in the way I described. He’s getting called out. If calling him out is unjustified then what you’re doing is unjustified as well. Can’t have it both ways.

What makes you think I did? See you’re being intentionally obtuse again. Really not a good look…
Of course, I never ever said Pelosi was evil because I do not believe that. I never said that “Everything Pelosi does has an evil motivation” either. Those are flat-out lies.
I do believe that Pelosi is the wrong leader for this time in history, and that this committee is another example of her lack of understanding of the consequences of global warming.
But you can’t get away from your lying and negative ad hominem attacks on me that add nothing.
Done. Have fun, and happy new year.

Color me skeptical. Maybe you can do something to change that impression, which I and others have taken from your combined comments.
