Then do so I'm all ears, but remember that a imbecile's whim could render

I am writing this post because of  your post, if you think its shitposting
then for god's sake stop shitposting.

I respond to political posts because I don't think they're thit, but why do
you?

Well what is your compelling argument for continuing this topic that you
think is shit?  You must have a reason because you're continuing to do it.

Don't tell me what sort of list this is sonny boy, I've been on it one hell

Then why are you bashing me on the head with virtually the same "shitpost"
you sent before if you don't like "shitposts" and think they do good? I
eagerly await your next long political post explaining why political posts
are shit ending in a demand that nobody should ever send another political
post again.

having the last word.
