[quote=straightUp]Huh.
OK.
Keep in mind.. I didn't say Archie was abrasive... I said
sometimes, he can
be abrasive. Then I followed that up with "it's not just you".
Archie and I don't find ourselves on the same topic all that often. And when I do run into him he seems more like the Archie Bunker that Carol Conner played... kicking back with a beer and making wise cracks about people. Maybe like a rounder version of myself, but conservative.
But Carol, who was in real life a total liberal, was portraying the difficulty of a conservative view in a changing world and Meathead... remember him? That tension they played out was a portrayal of the tension between people like our archie and AF1, played by WTF was his name? I dunno, Meathead.
Remember how they got so pissed off at each other? Remember how dumbstruck Meathead got when Archie would get so angry he would say something shitty?
I've seen our archie do this... Here's a quote from our archie back in April of 2018 addressed to Kevyn
"I'm demanding that Admin. remove you from this site, and that all conservative posters here stand with me!!
You also deserve to lose your livlihood, your home, and anything else you might own for such a barbaric attack on someone you disagree with!!The brutal attack BTW was the simple suggestion that Christians aren't persecuted by law. Here's the link, it's worth a read. (I love it when my technology works, I have instantaneous access to a ton of stuff y'all say.)

So... That's abrasive. This lovable guy Archie Bunker, for a moment throws out a spray of mean-spirited words. Does it reflect the real person inside? I don't know. I'd like to think not, but... I don't know our archie as a real person. And that's my point... all we know about each other is the words we type.
AFI is real guy too and he can get carried away sometimes, sure. So I do. I know how it happens. We read the frickin' news. And sometimes you just need to to say out loud... WTF? Well, that can be abrasive too. If you read that thread I liked to you would know how reactive archie can be...
So, you can decide who deserves what by your political views, or you can recognize the fact that the two of them took very different actions. One chose to be honest but confidential and the other chose to violate the sanctity of PM and rampage.[/quote]
‘Brutal attack’ on kevyn - who also reaps what he’s sown. AF1 gets carried away ‘sometimes’. He chose to be ‘honest’.
A ‘brutal attack’ in 2018.
Uh-huh
