I'm not going to read that. Unless you're the opinion columnist for USA today? Cause I asked you about your opinion.


You asked about why they have that opinion. They provided a link which covers the reasons they have the opinion they have.


All they did was reply with a link.

For all I know it's selling me essential oils.

Is it so much to ask for some basic human decency?


Is it an “opinion” that Elon Musk blocked links to Mastadon and the account that was tracking his plane using publicly available information?

Or do you just refuse to read anything that contradicts your world view?


And we're into ad hominem attacks.

I'm sure I deserved that for asking your opinion.


You don’t need an “opinion” about whether Musk is blocking Twitter links he doesn’t agree with.

That’s an easily verifiable fact that you could have found out about just by reading the link you refused to read.


I apologize profusely for deigning to ask you to talk to me.

It's not an excuse but I thought your opinion might provide me insight, but your behaviour makes clear it'll be utterly worthless.
