So, the earnest search for common ground might go something like...
"Look, even though I believe A, and you believe A-prime, I bet we do have some things that we share. What do you think of this pipeline project that they are doing? Or, how do you apply your A-prime to your family? Maybe I do the same thing." etc. |

The thread was supposed to be about first principles (yours, mine, his, hers), not cookie recipes (or pipelines or family or...).
Don't worry about it: the thread served its purpose (still is).

Then you should have called it search for complete agreement... it's not a common ground sort of thing

Wasn't lookin' for complete agreement...was lookin' for a comparison of principles...after a fashion: I got that (still am).
As I say: don't worry about it.

"That is contempt for all others."
Nope. I just like my way of quoting better. # "A characteristic of an extremist." Takes one to know one. # "You only want to 'wreck shit'." Some shit: yep. # "That is your common ground." Nope. # "Screw everyone else." Nah, not everyone, no. You? Absolutely. 凸(-_-)凸

Maybe he doesn't want anyone to read what he's written.
