[QUOTE="overgeeked, post: 9460636, member: 86653"] So now we're adding mind reading? That's not good. You don't know what's going on in other people's brains no matter how sure you are that you do. Every post here is an opinion. You know that. So why pretend that some posts are not opinions? Someone else is using rhetoric you don't like and you want to stop them. Their use of rhetoric you don't like doesn't remove the knowledge from your mind that they're still posting an opinion, not a fact. So why pretend they're posting facts? Likewise with your "misunderstanding" that posters using rhetoric you don't like are still posting opinions, not facts. You take exception to their rhetoric despite knowing they're posting an opinion, but you shift the problem to the poster instead of you. Bottom line: You can't control how others post, so stop trying. The exaggeration doesn't help make your point. [/QUOTE]
