The point that you want to provoke a reaction from me is point itself
enough to illustrate your kind of reasoning in these exchanges. I stand by
my statements in their contexts, especially when confronted by bigots,
obscurantism, same tactics over and over to prove, and excessive pride that
have nothing to do with topic, by trying to undermine it sans substance
with fancy linguistic attacks. This is not some competition for high school
status. Some people are trying to learn here.

And when somebody is making an ass of themselves, one should have the
courage and the courtesy to tell them if one is honest: I know you don't
care about pronouns or entertaining alternate hypothesis... So why pretend?
Right, to bash and feel good/smart about ourselves. I'm guilty of the thing
myself; but do I have to make an orgy out of this in people's inboxes and
keep wasting people's time in the same loops?

Unlike you, I fortunately do not have the time to dig up your ad hominems.
Nor would I bother to be honest, as my point was to spare people, including
myself, further irrelevant, distasteful, crude loopy nonsense concerning
these topics from you on this list (fat chance, I know, but mistakes of
youth...), and I don't have to do that anymore, because with each post you
make, this becomes more self-evidently clear. Everybody here, pretty much
has grasped this. Thanks for making it clear again, John. PGC
