I think people attack Mikesez personally quite often.  Often the people who do it contribute nothing else to the discussion.

You're killing me, today, Marty. Are you reading what I'm typing? Am I doing this wrong? I mean, sometimes I type stream of consciousness, so maybe it's me. I'll try again.

Mike made a post after I spent a good amount of time trying to clarify different ways people use the term, "woke." His post said, "Is that really what the great red/blue debate comes to? A few dumb commercials?"

To which I said the bit about a few dumb Mikesez posts. 

The reason I chose that response was because Mikey knew I wasn't trying to distill all of the red/blue debate into "a few dumb commercials." He's not stupid. He's just using a reductio ad absurdum argument tactic. In return, I did the same thing except about him, personally. 

Mine statement is not true, in the same way his is not true. That was the point. 

Is that clear?
