For both of you: why would anyone respond to attacks?

Please allow me to respond to your disgusting hypocrisy with your own comment.

If you have an argument for me, write to me directly, rather than type this cowardice nonsense to someone else. Man up.

Then you inexplicably cry "mod abuse" below, as if.
If you think I'd ban you, then you're probably delusional.
I'm an extreme free speech advocate. Literally the opposite, of an abusive mod.

I'm a pragmatist, and I suspect you're probably donating to the site, which is great.
That's a meaningfully contribution to Saidit, and I have no intention of doing anything harmful to the site.

There are plenty of shills here who don't donate. So, you have a leg up on them in that respect.

Conversely, these shills seldom disgrace themselves by crying wolf about "mod abuse".

Nobody has to tell them to:

Man up.

I'm conclusion, my strong recommendation to you is to take your own advice.

If you have an argument for me, write to me directly, rather than type this cowardice nonsense to someone else. Man up.
