I advise caution, I don't advise wholesale hysteria. People can judge for themselves if they are wary.

Knowing who your friends are these days is tricky enough.

Fear can work against you as much as it can prepare you for facing risk.

Fear is useful, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. It's all in how you use it.

No, you passively cast dispersion on my statement that the site is more than what you think. You also insinuated that what I stated is a touch hysterical.

Here's the deal and hopefully we can both agree. Placing your information on the internet and associating it to anything political has risks. A lot of people don't do put two and two together to make that analysis.

That was my point.

Your point was uniformed and pointless to the conversation other than to rebut mine with no sauce?

“Cast dispersion?”

Do you mean aspersions?

He didn’t. He expressed his opinion. Which is actually more similar to yours than you even seem to realize. Don’t be a drama queen, friend!

I think you happen to be right about this site, but his viewpoint is very reasonable. Relax a little.

Or does “critical thinking” have to match your thinking or it’s not critical enough?

TIL: "Cast aspersions"

Ah hell... and here I called him a colossal fucktard. Now I done brought the ignorance.

And to your point, his thinking or opinion do not have to match mine. I never stated that. I only ask that if you want to argue a point you back it up with something other than your opinion. I did.
