One summer many decades ago when I was in my early 30s I played on a softball team. On our team were twin brothers. During one game one of the brothers made some kind of error or baserunning mistake, I don't remember exactly what, and his brother yelled out from the bench, "YOU ASSHOLE!" Later in the game when one of them stepped up to the plate to take his turn at bat, someone called out from the stands, "Are you the asshole?"
Just because I point out that you're an asshole, doesn't mean I've been triggered.
Yep. They're trying to protect themselves from being identified as a sphincter by saying that if you point it out, you must be the one with a problem. What they are forgetting:
So you're both proctologists after all. Hanging out where the sun don't shine explains your pale pallors. At least now I know who to turn to when the shit hits the fan. To each they're own.

What they are forgetting:
An elderly Winston Churchill finds himself alone in a train compartment with a comely young woman. They fall into conversation, and he says: âTell me, my dear, if I offered you a million pounds, would you sleep with me?â
The woman is a little taken aback but ponders for a moment and says, âWell, you are a very old man, sir, but obviously very distinguished. I would have to think about that.â
âWhile youâre thinking, let me ask you another question: Would you sleep with me if I gave you one pound?â
âMr. Churchill,â she responds, indignant, âWhat kind of woman do you think I am?ââ
âMiss, we have established what kind of woman you are. Now we are merely negotiating the price.â
I thought that was George Bernard Shaw at a dinner party
Brand is not my cup of tea. Gives off wannabe cult leader vibes, IMO. That said, your language choices here are pretty much NSFW and shallow. Pay more attention to what OV has to say.
Nice pearl clutching there. Some of us remember your history though so it comes across as well.... pretty shallow.

Attacked? I can assure you that you haven't been attacked. That's another level of disagreement and reserved for special cases or bad days.
You seem a little full of yourself if not outright insecure. None of the reasons I posted the video link are about you or your opinion of the men speaking. It's about the subject matter, so you don't get to decide what the "nature" of the debate is. There wasn't a "debate". Either listen to the discussion or don't. Dropping in with no interest or intent other than to cast crude aspersions might get an unsavory reply.
Since you seem to have such a conscience for forums and fair, thoughtful participation, let's talk about that for a moment. You want thoughtful and reasoned content? Provide it. You want the derision and disrespect put forth as in your example, continue to provide that and it will come back to you if that is what you choose. Or, maybe it won't. Maybe you'll get lucky and be ignored as an idiot.
Two meatheads jacking each other off. Wonât be clicking on that.
