And I'm uninterested in whether your opinion is identical to mine. You publicly made an allegation,... I've "alleged" nothing about you, and owe you no more. Sorry. No, you don't actually owe me anything. It's just that I suspected you weren't being honest, and your response to my enquiri...

Why are you telling me this, what's it got to do with me? :? It's a aid for your understanding, because you often express incomprehension, and you apparently have not grasped the gist of IC's patient explanations. Once you understand, you may begin to care. See it as an exciting change in your atti...

I am interested in your opinion that certain books are "perverted", And I'm uninterested in whether your opinion is identical to mine. You publicly made an allegation, and I think it reasonable that you should be expected to account for it. That is what this is about; not whether our opin...

Question: What is the purpose of the Motion Picture Association film rating system? Answer: It's purpose is to provide guidance on how films should be rated. That's just an educated guess, btw. Very good. It's to provide guidence ... for parents to guide their little children. Now that you've grasp...

...you won't give me the information... You have it. You have an abundance of videos of actual parents quoting from actual books, citing specific cases. I'm not interested in what parents might be quoting. I am interested in your opinion that certain books are "perverted", and which books...

For the record, on a scale of xs: xxxxx I reckon I'm second from the right.

Well, to be strictly accurate, I must admit to being LXIX.

You seem younger. I would even have been shocked to find out you were W years old.

X is about right, but maybe a small x.

No, I am not. How old are you, Will? Let your age be X. My age is also X, but I thought Will was younger than me. 🤔 How do you even know you aren't the same person? Because when you quote Will, my notifications don't say you quoted me. Is there any kind of problem both being and not being X years o...

My age is also X, but I thought Will was younger than me.

And yet, I did...and you couldn't be bothered even to go and look. You said so, yourself. You said: " We're talking about the "educators," particularly in Florida, who have been grooming children in public schools with perverted books", those were your words, and all I am asking...

Yep. I knew it. And I knew you wouldn't be able to back up your allegations about "perverted" books. And yet, I did...and you couldn't be bothered even to go and look. You said so, yourself. You said: " We're talking about the "educators," particularly in Florida, who have ...

Well I don't care all that much, so I won't check the videos. Yep. I knew it. And I knew you wouldn't be able to back up your allegations about "perverted" books. If it were my job to decide what is suitable reading material for children, I would make my decision after I had examined the ...

You made the claim that "perverted" books were being read to school children, and it surprises me that such a thing could be the case, so I am asking for the names of the books you have condemned as being perverted so that I can see for myself. Please, just tell me the book titles. I've p...
