Agreed. I dont know why people still respond to someone who knows nothing about whats going on (now or in the past apparently) and just parrots the same shit over and over...Guys, guys. Give it a rest. DF may be a long time member of this forum, but he's still a troll when it comes to politics or culture. He's been doing this for freakin' EVER. When things get slow, he starts trying to get a reaction, and there's generally someone who'll bite. He loves it. He's about as predictable as the sun rising and setting. In my nearly 10 years here, he's never supported his bumper sticker analyses of politics, and I can pretty much guarantee he's never read a real history book, you know, one with depth and nuance, one that isn't written as a long stream-of-consciousness collection of bumper stickers.
Write your responses for yourselves or because you want others to read them, but you might want to just quit trying to make him "see" anything, because, ain't gonna happen. You will type many keystrokes, write well, and support your assertions with numbers, or examples, or history, and he will not discuss by showing you how you're wrong and supporting his assertions with anything he's read, he'll respond by deflecting with another bumper sticker, or one sentence about how he believes what he believes because he believes it.
Remember, facts mean nothing, and historical reality means nothing. We are in post-reality America and you're going to bash yourselves bloody on that insensate wall unless you pace yourselves. HE is so not worth it.
