Aaaahg, so bad on so many levels (that I even spent an extended period of time hunting up that image so you could all see it).

This is not the sort of nonsense I expect from a Sun newspaper, which is usually one of the saner newspaper brands around.

(For those unfamiliar with the chain of Sun newspapers in Canada, they only bear superficial similarities to the Sun of the UK, being tabloid format and having a very attractive and scantily clad woman on the third page.  The Canadian ones are normally fairly solid, if brief, in their news coverage, and quite noticeably unfriendly to the Left.  The Toronto Sun was the start, and emerged from the ruins of the Toronto Telegram when one of their unions drove it out of business during a strike, so this is quite understandable.)

And someone deleted the conversation.  Wow, stay classy @OhHeyTDK & @Huscoon.  So much for #Respect
Assholes.
As I just posted on Twitter (not a fail):

My experience with them reminds me of a friend of mine, Lord T Hawkeye when he first met with furries.
Basically, they were arrogant smarmy liberals (like most furs are) to the point where he didn't join the fandom. In Hawkeye's own words:
"Suffice to say, their arrogance makes you long for the chance to shove their heads into their torsos and let them drown in their own bile."
Oh, furry fandom, I try to love you, and as someone who has been into it at least since he was 16 (10+ years now),
you'll always have a place in my heart. But goddamnit, why must you be so into leftist mysticism?
#AnarchoCapitalistProblems #RationalistProblems
Needless to say if I didn't find the fandom before politics, I'd have never joined the fandom, and would probably be a sympathizer like my friend Lord T Hawkeye.
Kinda makes me wish I screencapped the convo. Oh well. Personally, I don't see how it was a respectful conversation.
When the SJW was being a smarmy arrogant and dismissive ass, ignoring contradictions in sources and double standards, and definitions.
That kind of dishonest behavior is NOT respect. It's not even a cheap imitation. It's browbeating, and bullying and more worthy of a
cult member like from Christianity, the cult of the omnipotent state, or Scientology.
I wish there were more Libertarian and Anarcho Capitalist furries. :(
Of the hundreds of thousands of furs, I can count the ancap/libertarian ones I know on one hand (maybe two) and they're nearly all felines..
..for some reason. Independence + cats. I guess it makes sense. XD
I swear, I'm the only canine ancap fur I know of. At least I match half of the black and gold flag. X3 #BlackAndYellow

Here be his responses after last night:
Quote from: @OhHeyTDK
@TravisRetriever @Huscoon Wait what?
@TravisRetriever @Huscoon Oh snap I know what happened. I was deleting old tweets with an app and it must have been caught accidentally. :o
@TravisRetriever I'm sorry that you think that I was being disrespectful towards you just because I disagree with you.
@TravisRetriever And I am far from a SJW, believe me. Besides, I used to be libertarian just like you until I had a shift in views.

@TravisRetriever And yes the convo was deleted but so we're about 2,100 other tweets. So I wasn't trying to cover anything up.
@TravisRetriever I was just cleaning out old tweets from four years ago. So there you go."
Emphasis added by me.  So apparently he lacks reading comprehension skills in addition to basic logic and research (dictionary.com plz.  Capitalism does NOT mean what you think it does if you seriously think that a paper on capitalism and partnership is going to overcome that contradiction I presented) skills--I never said or implied he was disrespectful for "disagreeing with me." He was disrespectful for lying and refusing to acknowledge contradictions, double standards and special pleading.  THAT is disrespect.  Honest people know that.  But I guess he wouldn't know how that works, lacking in honestly and being as smug, smarmy (and moon hoaxer like, etc) he was during that exchange a few days ago.  And certainly wouldn't have, whether intentionally or not, censored me when I was just trying to get the information out there.
Also, "I used to be a libertarian until I changed my point of view"? How many times have I heard that bullshit?  Yeah, right.  Like Kirk Cameron "used to be an evolutionist."  Sorry, but the truth exists regardless of your "point of view." If he was really serious about finding out objective truth ( http://v.i4031.net/StatistFallacies/AgreeToDisagree ), he'd ditch that shit and would have stayed and gotten more into libertarianism.  Really, anytime someone uses the opinion card ( https://www.bogosity.tv/forum/index.php?topic=295.msg22315#msg22315 ), I've always taken it as an admission of defeat and failure on their part.  We're NOT dealing with opinions people.  Learn the difference!

But it makes me wonder why the hell Twitter saw fit to make it so that if I have a conversation with someone and delete my posts or top post or whatever, it deletes all of theirs too.  What the hell, Twitter?

PS: The responses he made screencapped and added as an attachment.  Because I learned my lesson especially when I go to his Twitter and find them deleted, and with this added:

Mother of God, The statheists in the comments are just beyond painful.  Someone telling Shane that if someone steals his car, then that doesn't qualify as harming him.  Statheists--even worse than Young Earth Creationists.

I'm just exhausted by the stupidity.

To Shane on the above TF video.

Um, yes, if you put your time labor and/or resources into it, then yes, it IS an extension of your personhood.  How could it not be? And no one is saying it's sentient, so I don't know where he's going with that...twat.
