He's trolling hard.
Again, the article was badly written. We just differ in opinion on the substance and therein lies the rub I suppose.
In our highly charged social climate this is not surprising.
I wish you well.
Let me fix this for you for your own edification:
"Please don't refuse to explain your position to me even though I've already proven I won't hear a word you say! I promise I won't listen again."
"I can't see my own biases so I can't understand anyone explaining them to me. Please don't try to explain them, it's upsetting!"
"I hate it when people peg me with my own words! Just let me use my anonymity to help you ignore my everything I've just said!" waves hands
"I resent it when people try to be nice or acknowledge my attempts at communication after I've insulted them, I won't let you!"
Oh and your last insult is a real gem... :)
"Since I lack real substance in my positions, I cannot see or acknowledge any substance from any alternate point of view"
As as side note, brick walls are fun conversation only if you're interested in hearing an echo ;)
(Of course that all depends on the acoustics of the space as well but I digress)
Regardless of it all I'll say it again, had the original commentor been more altruistic in his take, I'd say you gave thoughtful feedback. I had thought your comments were well-meant initially in regards to clarifying that commenter. I had even acknowledged some ideas (we agree the article was not well written even if we differ on the substance). However by your words it's shown that wasn't your real intention - you being more interested in defending the negative bias of the comment (and it was negative) than the underlying content of the comment.
I do wish you well.
"I do not want to defend my stance. My positions are obvious so no explanation is needed from my side"
"I see bias everywhere, but I won't do anything to try to understand how what I see may not be a bias."
"I will attribute intentions to the person I am speaking with and make assumptions about who the person behind the computer is. I will view what (s)he says through that lens that I have chosen to wear. I will not supply any avenue for that person to point out defects in the lens."
"Thanks for trying."
There is no substance here, so nothing I can respond to.
