ANOTHER came at me. He said he'd "owned" me with a rebuttal after I'd blocked him, then proceeded to spam every comment I'd left in the last 24 hours with a challenge. After waiting all of an hour.
So I looked.
My original point? "Kavanaugh's own calendar didn't match up with his repeated perjury."
His ownage? This link. https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/10/03/retired-fbi-agent-doj-lawyer-ms-monica-mclean-attended-kavanaugh-hearing-with-blasey-ford/
It "proves" Ford was lying because her lawyer friend was... standing kinda near her? No calendar mention at all.

@zebratron2084 yep. seriously, either they really do (to be *extremely* nice about it) have quite a bit of difficulty following any particular train of thought, or (far more likely) they're arguing in bad faith and using the same goalpost-moving, knee-jerk, "lol I win because you said a thing" tactics they always do, and in their shriveled rotten little hearts they know they lost a long damn time ago. :D

@troodon See, YOU get it. That's what people always used to miss when they'd cluck their tongues at me during the Livejournal days. The first thing I learned about these people is they are TOTALLY LYING about their lack of emotional vulnerability.
You CAN beat a troll. You just never get the pleasure of seeing them adjust the scoreboard when you do. But you gradually learn to recognize the tells that they DO know, and they WILL stew in it, as they deserve.

@zebratron2084 and sometimes, *some* rare lovely times, one of them comes to you years later and says "omfg I am so sorry I was such a jackass it turns out I'm weirdgendered and otherkin and I was in such deep self-hating denial, thank you for planting the seed of discontent that blossomed into me realizing what a shithole I was in."

@troodon Yes, yes they do, and I love them to death. <3
This is one of the things that gives me hope for doing Parallax. So many times, I've seen one of those people actually recognize that we can give them a much better offer than the side they're on, and convert.
And fuck, I wasn't even offering those people healthcare and a living wage. Imagine what the DNC and DSA could do in terms of conversions if they didn't both completely suck. :D
