No. They call that your early, formative years of internet political discussions, while you're still thrashing around like a two-year-old who has learned to assert their independance but hasn't learned how to master their temper tantrums; before you gain a little maturity and begin to understand that finding the kernel of truth in your opponent's argument means that you actually learned something that day. We all have our less than flattering moments, but as they say about cheating in school, you're only hurting yourself.
