Remember, you said I didn't answer the question. And, then he changed his tune. And, now you are, too. And, never mind that in the general, collective sense, didn't even make sense in the context of the discussion that got us to that point. It's so much fun when you all get yourselves twisted in knots trying backtrack off of things. Anyway, much of the criticism sounds like radical left lunacy. Comparing Trump to Hitler, Trump will order the murders of citizens, Kirk was a Nazi, etc. Say lunatic things, and you just might be labeled a lunatic. You didn't "call me out", you obfuscated, deflected and changed the subject. I'm not twisted in knots, I can see exactly what's happening and I do not need to try to remember which news organisation is "fake news" or what "alternative facts have been told today or what utter nonsense Trump has spouted. Comparing Trump to Hitler is very easy - just try reading a little world history or even some fiction. Orwell is a good place to start so is Sinclair Lewis.

It's instructive to read your outrage at being misrepresented but seem to have no insight into how dependent you are on that same misrepresentation (among other tactics) to "defeat" your rhetorical "enemies". Well, it's your rabbit hole and I'm noping out. I made a good faith attempt to explain my POV as best I could in a short-form forum. Either I failed and you seriously misunderstood what I was saying or you deliberately used misrepresentation to "prove" me wrong. So, don't ask me a question unless you want to hear the answer. Think twice before you belittle me or try to invalidate my thinking by misrepresenting what I wrote. I won't help you dig your rabbit holes. Don't start nuthin', won't be nuthin'. Sincerely, LRL, still keeping my feet dry.

The post of mine your're quoting and replying to was not addressed to you. I only ask questions I'd like an answer to, and the last questions I've asked of you have yet to be answered. What is it that you said that you think I'm misrepresenting?

She used to tell litigants on her show who were obviously trying to con her, "Don't pee on my foot and tell me it's raining.” I don't know where it actually originated. Sincerely, LRL

Either way, I would think that would be RLL. After so many times I thought I'd clarify. heron said: The references to rain and dry feet refer back to Judge Judy Scheindlin.

Remember when you and @GrumpyRN said I wouldn't answer a question? You were sorta snarky about it. And I actually did answer it when I realized it was meant to be serious. Now you both avoid my questions. Seems like Judge Judy is helping you deflect...
