    It’s an indicator that a person uses a particular type of rhetoric - or worse, actually thinks in a way - that is incredibly harmful to any sort of rational discourse. You know it’s false, the person you’re pretending to quote knows it’s false, it’s exclusively said in bad faith, there’s no reason for anyone to ever say something like that. It doesn’t help you win an argument or convince anyone. It’s exhausting and childish and a waste of time.

    Just make an honest argument, of which there are many. Don’t waste anyone’s time with that crap.

        At leasts insults are amusing. The type of hyperbole you used isn’t.

        Think of it this way: you know I’m willing to support insulting and trolling people and even I found what you said to be so bad I wish I could ban it. That should showcase exactly how bad it is, right?

          A person saying insults are amusing just screams ‘ignore me’. I hope you will look back at your statement soon and feel at least some kind of embarrassment. Good luck to you.
