>I don't want to belabor the obvious, but many would find this domineering diction offensive and derogatory. It's outrageous to pretend people might disagree with those truisms and it's a totally transparent vehicle for the name calling that follows. No doubt it can be loudly protested that it's only true if people don't "understand of believe" the list- but it's a personal attack to even suggest anytbody here might not understand or agree with such a list. There's nothing new or clever about this sort of tactic that is intended to put somebody on the defensive rather than responding to their point. As a debating style it's absolutely disgraceful, but it collapses if the target remains calm and insists on arguing the point, not the man.

So - as I said, you're completely misstating what I said - and you know it. I have not called you or anyone else on this forum names and you are proving my point here. If you take offense to me calling a racist a racist or a sexual predator bad then that's your problem not mine.
