What a good way to shut down conversation. I think that's what's wrong with the political climate now days, you get in an echo chamber and any deviation from your echo chamber and you shut down conversation saying that any deviation from you is 'inherently dickish.'
If you'd actually like to discuss, I'm here.
If you can't help but to be a dick in your comments, I won't care to discuss.
It's been explained to you but you lack the understanding of the definition of words so your comprehension has failed utterly.
What's been explained? That you refuse to discuss this with me because you're always 100% right and that any other argument that deviates from yours is inherently 'dickish'? You've made that known.
Once again, I'd love to discuss if you'd like. Having an unpopular opinion really helps me engage with the other side and know where they're coming from. I think sometimes you should give that liberty to someone you disagree with.
Do you practice being this stupid or does it come naturally?

So it's both.
Look man, you can insult me all you want, doesn't matter. I'm a young conservative in an extremely liberal state, I've heard it all.
