    This is putting your fingers in your ears and hoping they go away. That doesn’t work with these fucks.

      If someone walks up to you on the street and stabs you, do you engage them in reasonable conversation or do you run away/have them arrested?

      This is the internet version of that - there are some people you talk to, and some people you walk away from.

        I think most reasonable people would fight back. But I guess that requires some amount of spine that certain people cannot muster.

          Did you ever watch Back to The Future? Because I think you could learn a lot from Part III and the “he’s an arsehole” scene at the end. And from the scene with Needles and the rolls-royce.
