I'm going to mute you now because you never actually say anything. Just waffle on vaguely without any noticeable point.

At least then I'd know what you're getting at. No need for all this vague meandering about never actually saying anything.

Harris was mentioned in passing but there are others like him. You seem to be in denial that such problems exist

Look. I'm sorry if you were genuinely trying to be clear, reasonable & relevant. Maybe I could get your point if there were more time/cpace
