I gave my opinion pro or against something - usually with links and even abstracts (*). When someone comes down screaming that I never tackled a certain topic I simply point out that I actually did. What should I do? Copy & Paste 20 times something because 20 people are too lazy to, you know, read the thread they are posting in?
I'll call this out as well, because it's an important concept.
The answer to your question?
Yes.
Yes, that's how we have discussions. Look at the main covid thread, I've repeated some of the same arguments many times. That's because it's unrealistic to expect new readers to be familiar with every last post, to know who posted what, or to follow every last volley of insults in case there was a relevant nugget of content, and then to synthesize all that in a reply to a throwaway assertion. Discussions are cumulative, but we also have to recognize the limitations of the medium, and discussion boards are more conversational than scholarly. We need to periodically summarize and restate.
But that isn't the real issue. The real issue is that most of the time, you don't even make your central thesis, and when people reply, you ignore their replies and post something else unrelated. Remember the time you posted something, and I had to infer that you were asking for an explanation for why the death rate in the US was higher than in many other countries? You never actually stated that. I had to guess what point you were trying to make based on a few statistical references. Many of your posts are like that. You don't make a point, you just post a bunch of links, or claim that people haven't refuted your claims, or simply claim victory, without making a clear argument.
And then what happened after I responded to your post? You didn't address any of the points I made, like how the US was a trade hub, or the high rate of obesity, or the large elderly population, or how some states did a terrible job protecting the elderly in congregate care hubs. You just ignored all that, and tried to dismiss my entire post on the basis of the governors I listed.
You do this all the time.
