A spiritual sequel of sorts to this thread.


9) Perhaps most importantly, I want to see MacArthur cry.

----------------------



Although I enjoy plenty of memes dunking on Gen Mac when he makes the posts., such as the one about Bernie or Else was really hilarious. I think its unfair to just bring him up randomly and nearly makes your posts as repetitive as his can sometimes be. I get its a good joke but do it when the time comes, sometimes a meme can be over used such as your brilliant BTRD post which you used on the 7 deadly sins post which was a fairly substantive post which deserved reply.

I know, it's getting bad. With BRTD, MacArthur, and Lyndon, I sometimes just can't help myself. Though I should note that I have no animosity towards BRTD; he might be annoying but he doesn't make bad-faith arguments in the way that the Radical Moderate Heroes™ do.

I mean I don't like comparing Mac to Lyndon, Lyndon was just unnecessarily being a dick to everyone with random quips, I can respect at least Mac does his research on his topics to some degree and I saw a lot of claims that might have gone uncountered if Mac didn't have desire to defend Biden or Bloomberg. You say you like opposing viewpoints, and I do too, on this forum having these weirdo establishment people is a rarity unlike in real life so I think its probably a good thing he's here and considering how many of your posts are probably personal attacks against him I can say he probably isn't reporting them.

I don't know how much time you've spent on the 2020 board, but Mac has been consistently pretty awful to SawxDem and Scott, two posters who I hugely respect. Again, I like opposing viewpoints and I'm happy to have MacArthur on the site; I just want him to reform the way he expresses himself. I think Twitter has conditioned him to think that all internet discourse has to be confrontational.

Yes I agree he should be less confrontational but often times aggressively attacking him back probably doesn't help especially for the point of just triggering him when he didn't say anything yet, I would say tone it down with singling him out, I would even recommend having a discourse pm with each other. Im just here to encourage a decrease in animosity for the sake of a better forum overall.
