He can not, because that would spur an inflection point where he would look to himself and admit wrong doing.

You see, the ego must be protected at all costs. It takes courage to introspect.

Then she needs to publicly apologise to MickeyD.

I just got an infraction from MickeyD for "Trolling and Disturbing the forum". I will, thus, not be posting on this matter any more because my honest views are deemed troll worth and a disturbance.

In that case I image it will be called black privilege and it is equally bad.

So, to your mind "privilege" is always bad? People can't have the privilege of having more money, resources and support than others? Are you a communist?

Are you going to publicly apologise to him for your accusations?

If your views were honest you would be willing to substantiate them.

This is why mybroadband.co.za is simply the best platform. Claims are scrutinized, that way sticking closely to the truth. It keeps the conversation going. It's kinda like, what the constitutional court is to law; is what mybroadband is to electronic communication platforms.

You see conversations are superior to arguments; because when people are arguing, they are set in their beliefs. In a conversation, there is connection, and rational thinking; this makes learning possible.

I love nothing more than robust debate and often post dissenting views or query certain posts for clarity. When shown to be wrong I don't hesitate to apologize and will accept that I have been taught something new. You have been making accusations against my person and refuse to substantiate it.

I would like to. But I am between a rock and hard place because my views are deemed to a disturbance.

Ultimately, I endeavor to respect the rules of the forum at all time and I take an infraction seriously.

No your views are not deemed to be a disturbance...

You make baseless accusations against forum members and then refuse to substantiate them.

We all enjoy robust debate, but that relies very heavily on points being substantiated.

The truth as you see it? Or the truth as RMF sees it?

Sure, myBB is good platform and I love it. But I do fear that, because of its make up, other views are not taken in the same light as others. The forum is mainly sympathetic to white view of the world and anything outside of that is considered hostile. #jussaying.

Complete and utter bollocks.

You may well be right, but you did not receive your infraction for your views, you received it for accusations made against a fellow member that you refused to substantiate. I don't agree with you at all but I enjoy that you are here and vocal.

There is no one who apologizes more than me when shown the truth. ToxicBunny will attest to that. He is a recipient of one of my apologies. Also I did not refuse to prove my accusations I was working on it - it takes time to dig up previous posts. Having said that, I respect your decision to issue an infraction and the associated consequences.

For the population here, an idea that contradicts itself is considered stupid.

Truth is universal. It's far below the surface.

ie: If I say to you the sky is blue;

and you say to me, no it's purple...

We can investigate together... I can walk you outside, and say, you see, have a look.

And you can say, "Oh wow! It is blue! It's beautiful! Why is it blue?"

Then I can say, It's the colour diffracted (I think diffraction is the right one) when the sunlight hits our atmosphere.

And we can both sit there saying wow, what an amazing world we live in.

Nope. You see. There is no predisposed make up. That is where you're steering off, that way, you are painting the picture into your belief; and then arguing against it.

As above, speaking of truth. If you have a point that is truthful, people here are all willing to give space for you to speak about what you want to speak about. Then, it's possible to investigate together.

One apology (which wasn't really an apology) after I refused to back down when you were going to just ignore it and move on. Your baseless accusation against the "majority of the forum" still stands and you re-inforced it when you "apologised" to me, which I think you still need to apologise for as well.

No, you were ducking and diving and using this "time to dig up previous posts" as an excuse.

What if his purple is your blue, then what?
