That's kinda less a defense of my lengthy posts as an attack on those who claim to be educated and intelligent but who fail to show such qualities in practice.
Being long winded doesn't indicate intelligence nor any level of education. Really, when it's done
correctly all it shows is an inability to make their own thoughts concise. A good speaker can convey their thoughts in a concise manner. Though, that requires an accepting audience. I'll get back to that point in a moment. However, you fail at even that. A majority of the your paragraphs are just a series of questions that don't actually explain anything, but alleviates you from having to think for yourself and instead attempts to fool your audience into doing the thinking for you. Finally, seeing as how you're never interested in discussion of any sort, but to go at lengths to say "GBAJI RIGHT, YOU IS WRONG," it makes the length of your posts pretty irrelevant. They're all the same. You're right, everyone else is wrong. Even when you're so wrong that there is no possibly reasonable way an adult could argue out of it,
you still try to argue out of it. The most innocuous error on your behalf must be, in actuality, someone else's error. So really, it's a waste of time for everyone else to post long winded, when you've already decided going in that you're right and that's final.
Now, I said that it also requires an accepting audience. You're not an accepting audience. That's been proven, time and time again. Basically, it's a waste of time for everyone else to write more than one or two sentences since you're already at your conclusion. It's where you start. There is no discussion. You're not interested. All you do is trumpet whatever pro-Republican or anti-Democrat view point you can find. You're a one trick pony, and just because you can draw it out doesn't make it impressive, nor does it really show intelligence.
Take this post for example. You started at the first letter and have already concluded that what I say after that first letter of the first word is wrong, and your view point is the correct one. I just wasted time. Yours and mine. It wasn't intelligent on my behalf, nor does it show a higher tier of education than just simply calling you a moron. Now, you're welcome to
say that this last paragraph is false, but I've personally had months of witnessing this behavior, and others have had
years. It's funny, but I'm willing to go out on a limb and bet that that story about the cousin that reminds you of me reminds them of you. Notice how time, and time again you come in and say something and no one agrees?
Maybe that brilliant analysis isn't nearly as brilliant as you thought it was.
