I read a really good article about the advantages and drawbacks of libertarianism so I searched it out and posted it for him. He couldn't possibly have read it in such a short time frame and immediately attempted to rip it apart. Naturally, he didn't understand it at all and simply wanted to argue. Case number one. I let it drop.
Later he was attempting to claim that P Buchanan was not a racist. The reason this is ironic is this asshole is a blatant racist using the N word often. So I again dispensed proof that PB certainly is a racist and that proof came from politicians, respected politicians in his own party. He disregarded it and started with the name calling. Case number two. I let it drop.
Not very long ago he keyed a post about the great genius of Dean Martin and how wonderful his music is. I agreed but I told him that his daughter and others have written books about DM and he wasn't such a really nice guy. I explained also that his daughter loved him to the max but he was never there for her. Now one would think the appropriate response might be...oh I didn't know that...or geez I am sorry to hear that...or maybe hey can you give me the titles of those books I would like to read them. Nope, he started a huge argument with me name calling and all types of other shit because I informed him that one of his heroes may be an asshole. He kinda thinks that actors and singers and entertainers are actually what they pretend to be on screen or in theater. Now tell me if you enjoyed an entertainer but had no other clues about him except what you saw on stage would you argue with books written by people who had intimate knowledge of that guy. No of course not, anybody with half a brain would not. Naive, no just stupid.
So my assessment of silly is he is really dumb, really dumb. He fights with people over complete nonsense, his opinion trumps facts. That is the sign of an immature, uneducated bully. You think he would be embarrassed, can't embarrass the really stupid. Impossible!
