Well, then go fuck yourself, Mr. Argumentative.
I'm not spinning anything. How in hell would I know what headgear some guy who I only know via references to his name on Net54 wears? Obviously, I don't.
Now I'm going to go cry, because some random internet clown who spends 24 hours a day bitching at everyone doesn't like me. Boo hoo hoo.

I think most of us have seen Probstein. He's pretty well known in this community. If you have never seen him and this was news, this should now make sense and the explanation should not make you throw a little bitch fit? I guess not.

The spinning non-apology was about Fuddjcal's comment after unbanning.

Good job though, you managed not to be a racist prick, so you're above some of this thread.

I don't think he was accusing YOU of spinning the situation.

Correct. JollyElm, as a third party who didn't make the comment, would be nonsensical to accuse of "

. As a third party who didn't say it, it makes no sense at all that an apology would be expected from him for anything. Only the person who made the racist comments would be expected to apologize.






Perhaps the next fit will be over something reasonable. So far this week we have 1 because I was against shooting people or drawing guns over non-minor card show thefts and 1 because I wrote against anti-semitic racism. I can't wait to see if the next fit even approaches the realm of the reasonable. We can do it if we try really hard, team!

Good one. Nice narrative. My post:

I checked Wikipedia for the hell of it and the listing is Beanie (seamed cap). Can't find anything about Judaism there.

Color me confused about the anger flying here.

Attachment 636944
Clearly in the very first sentence, I state that I have no horse in this race, which I don't. Can't recall ever interacting with the member taking all of the scorn. Maybe a contrarian will dig up posts that show me conversing with him, but it would be a surprise to me. And that's followed by me saying that I have no interest in getting wrath for bringing it up.

Literally, nothing there to argue about. I stated that I was confused about the anger and basically asked, "What's the problem with mentioning a beanie here?"

See, any rational person (which would exclude you), might say, "JollyElm, much like Steven Tyler with his scarves, it is well-know that a yarmulke is sort of Probstein's trademark, and that's why there's blowback."

I would've said, "Okay, thanks for the info."

But you??? Of course not, it has to be an argument. You quoted me, typed your bullshit implying that I'm some sort of apologist, and now want to pretend I started it????????????? HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You very well could be the funniest person alive.

Now you can stop and just move on and I'll do the same. Ball's in your court.

There's a transcript. I explained it, you misread the post and then responded with a bolded go fuck yourself. Obviously you started it. You apparently are still not understanding it. Why would anyone want you to apologize? That sentence was very, very obviously referring to Fuddjcal's spin - is it not obvious that only the person who made the antisemitic comment would be the one to sincerely apologize? Why would anyone refer to YOU having a "a non-apology plea of ignorance"? That makes no sense.

I don't know why you want to keep screeching about a thing you made up, but you do you . It's pretty funny, please keep going.

You know, it is possible to make the point that someone is behaving badly without going beyond that. Just take a breath and think...
