I'd assumed as much and I appreciate the heads up. I just really enjoy a good argument and nothing beats stomping the guts out of a smug liberal on the internet.

I don't think I could do otherwise lol.
Just play their game and start asking them questions. Especially if you know they're not a shill. Answering a question requires that they think about what they're saying, rather than going on autopilot and parroting MSM propaganda.
I'm not saying there's a 100% success rate, but making people think about the words they say is rarely a wasted effort.

Ah, I thought you were trying to shut down the discussion.
Thanks for the heads up on your being a waste of space at time.
Don't believe everything Yin says.
He's not able to produce any sound backing for some batshit crazy ideas he's been peddling, and is lashing out at me, probably from the cognitive dissonance.
There's no chance a shill would bother with a corner of the internet this small.
I do confess to trying to broaden the ideas here on saidit, because reddit is something of a monopoly in the link collector space at the moment, so competitors are a good thing. But any rational person visiting here for the first time would read the crackpot and racist things being posted, and never come back.
So I think a rational counterpoint would be a good thing. Maybe saidit is a lost cause, but I'm only one person, and I only have so much time and energy for rational discourse with madmen like Yin.

See, you cannot even explain your views without sounding like an arrogant dickhead. It's not that everyone disagrees with you, it's that you're kind of insufferable.
I have friends in IRL life that I disagree with on a fundamental level, but they don't walk around with their nose stuck in the air constantly.
The reason people say you're a shill is because you act like the most stereotypical "smug liberal". People who think and act like you infest literally every space that isn't reddit and try to turn it into reddit.
You all use the same arguments and justifications. I've heard the "I'm just trying to broaden the ideas around here" meme so many times I can't even tell you.
Just try thinking outside the box for once. Just once, entertain an idea that's completely foreign to you.
