When that applies it is what I'm going to say. You don't claim that the things I said are untrue or that they aren't common arguments from the left, you just object to me calling a spade a spade. Well I have heard these arguments I labeled as common quite frequently, some are new, or new-ish, common thought thread but different flavor, and I don't label them, and label or not I explained my objections.

Most people feel that way, not sure how true it really is or that its an admirable thing. Anecdotal experience is often a very bad basis for drawing conclusions off of, and certainly bad to prove cases from.

You wouldn't need to, you regularly insulted various right wing beliefs and I outright said I agreed with them, I am very unclear on why it is deemed offensive to use 'common arguments'. I called out one of yours on the grounds that it was common and used what I consider to be very flawed logic, which I explained. I happen to believe life begins at conception, more or less, you wouldn't offend me by saying that was a common right wing argument. I'd object to the 'gun nuts' bit, I don't recall having said anything equivalent but I might have.

Still I agree this is a good place to call it quits. As I said a long way back I didn't expect us to make any real headway, you can exit when you please and this is probably as good a time as any other.
