Ah, a fellow intellectual, I see.
My position is perfectly straightforward: by asserting their belief that their own behaviour of calling people "dumb" with no elaboration was acceptable, that user gave us all implicit permission to speak to them that way without any objection from them, lest they betray a hypocritical stance.
I responded by doing just that as a parody to demonstrate that it clearly is rude behaviour. I subjected them to the discomfort of having such rhetoric leveraged against them, a situation they clearly neglected to consider in their hasty self-serving defence. If I had elaborated any further, it would have defeated the purpose of the parody.
But in your case, I decided upon an overly verbose self-serious tone, also as a form of parody. Is that assessment sufficiently intelligent for you?
Sorry, I thought you were the original guy.
Lol, okay. I hope my unhinged bullshit was at least entertaining then :)
It was.
