Why people do that

Yeah. Betting on Grav's balls is prudent.

Tw ignores facts with numbers. Tw ignored facts that cigarette producers hired tw's father to advertise for them and tell Americans how just good they were. When one brand was promoted, all brands benefited. The tw family promotional propaganda for cigarettes has contributed to more than 480,000 deaths annually in the United States [CDC] and nearly 6 million deaths annually worldwide [CDC] due to cigarette smoking. Still, the developmentally impaired tw whines about others causing 60,000 total American military fatal casualties in Vietnam over 20 years, 5,000 total in the Gulf War to Mission Accomplished, and having to pay too much for gas at discount gas stations THAT SELL CIGARETTES. Tw refuses to acknowledge facts because tw's infantile brain can comprehend only tone in which facts are presented, not content, just like an infant.

Tw propaganda technique, learned from his father, undermines American freedom of expression and targets The Cellar to hate on Americans. Developmentally impaired tw despises Americans stating facts and so recognizes only sources who appease him in their form of presentation and redirects conversation away from facts to who's doing the presenting and how they're doing it. Tw subverts any facts that fall outside his propaganda line. When was the last time you got the impression that tw liked you; or, valued your opinion and wasn't just feigning interest so you'd continue to listen to his rhetoric [rhetorical]? Tw is just a propagandist abusing this venue.

Unfortunately this reality must be restated often until developmentally impaired tw finally realizes the reality that he's behaviorally an infant who's been brainwashed to hate on Americans. Tw is incapable of acknowledging responsibility for his actions just like Hillary. Tw continues to enthusiastically subvert the venue that is the Cellar.

Why associate me with someone who only posts insults.

Sexobon now Xeroxs the same insults (not one fact or honest statement), word for word, to my every post. A perfect example of an adult acting like a child. Why associate me with that child - who has never posted anything but insults in my direction?

Because he routinely posts insults at me, I too much be a child?

UT - you have banned people previously for much less. Since sexobon has been doing this for so long, then it is acceptable? Or is it necessary to start matching his nastiness before you notice?

One made mildly insulting comments because, we later learned, she was suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning. Her comments were mild compared to sexobon. So mild, that I (and others) was surprised you did that you banned her. Why a double standard?

It is a shame you now condone daily Trump style insults.

How many people did you call a child? How many did you call emotional? How many did you call Trump supporters? How many did you call stupid for not understanding the simplest of your statements?

You started the nastiness in this thread. Go back and read it if you don't believe me.

Sexobon ... after maybe ten posts of direct insults and not one adult (logical) reply. Apparently you never noticed how many insults he posts before I finally reply to one.

Now, an adult that acts like a child is not an insult. It is science. Sexobon's insults were defined by well proven science. Some adults remain emotional - do not temper the 'child in the adult' with what adults develop - a prefrontal cortex .

If you think that is an insult, then you have not let learned the science. You have choosen to respond emotionally rather than logically. For most, a prefrontal cortex takes control about the age of 16. Researcher note that does not happen for some until 24. And some never establish what is necessary to be an adult.

Clearly the science (an adult who is still a child) is not an insult. It is science that explains why some take insult at any statements they do not like. Adults who respond emotionally are still acting as a child.

BTW, asking if Trump has a mental illness also is not an insult - even though Trump supporters jump to that conclusion. It is also a logical (adult) question based in science.

Explained many times. Maybe you did not read it. Or maybe you so dislike proven science as to deny it. That is for you to answer - if not here, then for your own benefit.

Which paragraph are you now insulted by? Some adults here do respond emotionally. A obvious difference easily separates one from another. An adult also includes perspective (ie reasons why) with a conclusion. Adults who are children rarely if ever do.

Sexobon has recently 'cut and pasted' his emotional outrage on many different boards. None of those duplicated posts are based in or justified by any facts. All represent his emotions. That (including the he cut and pastes then so many times) is a classic example of an adult acting like a child. Not an insult. A fact explained by psychology.

Actually your first three replies in response to me were nasty. Your reply was clearly disparaging. And then followed by intentionally misstating what was clearlyl obvious. Since you did not like the reality and could not challenge it.

An adult would have replies with numbers or knowledge that disputed a well demonstrated fact. Discount gasoline is the more expensive gasoline. Repeated again because nothing posted here contradicts it. Others have posted facts that also demonstrate a reality you do not like.

So I reply to you in the only way you understand. What the fuck are you talking about you fool. That is your attitude. That was your many posts in reply to me. I ignored your insults and replied with more facts. You - not me - posted the first disparaging comments.

Of course you will deny it.

Tw learned propaganda techniques from his father who was in advertising for big tobacco. He's learned how to mix just enough truth (what he'll refer to as facts) in with deceptions (the conclusions he'll try to impose on others) along with demeaning (he'll call everyone who disagrees with him whacko, a child, extremist...etc.) to either string people along whatever agenda he's pushing; or, try to shut them down just as big tobacco tried to shut down the medical community. Tw identifies those he thinks are the most gullible among us and throws throws them a bone ('ataboy); or, something pleasant (humor) every so often to keep them hangin' on. If tw tries to get on your good side, it means he considers you a weakling.

If you watched the video UT posted, "Jonathan Pie explains it", then you know how tw has always operated. You're not allowed to disagree with him. If there isn't sufficient conversation going on in the Politics forum, he'll push his agenda in other forums and make a political connection there. It's been a losing methodology for tw just as it was a losing strategy for Hillary Clinton. Both of them still firmly believe that you can fool most of the people most of the time and if you repeat something often enough, it becomes the truth. Both will even wave the flag (as in - Patriotism, the last refuge of a scoundrel). Neither of them will ever learn simply because they're too full of themselves.

I, OTOH, didn't need Jonathan Pie's explanation. I know how propaganda works. The Reserve Psychological Operations Officers Course I attended covered propaganda techniques fairly well. Much of it is used in civilian advertising such as tw's father did. I readily see what techniques tw has picked up and employed here in the Cellar. He's not very good at it; but, because most Cellar peeps are even worse at recognizing it...he thinks he's a genius. If everyone here had my knowledge on the subject, tw would have been gone a long time ago. That's not the case though so the Cellar is a classic environment for someone like tw to thrive. And he knows it.

To the extent that tw is a propagandist that I can counter just for fun, it may be a good match.

BTW, when was the last time you got the impression that tw liked you; or, valued your opinion and wasn't just feigning interest so you'd continue to listen to his rhetoric [rhetorical]? Tw is just a propagandist abusing this venue.
