Absolutely stellar response. Thank you for taking the time to write this. In a world where I had more free time, I would love to take the time to research and make an equally well composed rebuttal. As it stands, your response is very informative, and it has helped me to understand the point of view better.
You're welcome to stay and learn from the lemmygrad community. If you do i think you will find we are generally quite welcoming and willing to take the time to explain our point of view and answer questions politely (and hopefully competently, though that is for others to judge) when approached in good faith. It is only low effort trolling that we tend to react quite allergically to.
That being said most of these questions have already been addressed before, and much more thoroughly than i ever could, be it in exceptionally well researched and sourced posts by other comrades or in the classic theory texts. So if some of the responses you get are somewhat terse, it might have to do with the frustration at having to deal with the same misconceptions over and over.
Although we do try, as Sankara said, to never stop explaining, we are only human...
