No offense intended, but that isn't accurate. People have been complaining about this for a long time, but you have to realize that on any given thread, there might be twenty people pushing one specific agenda and only two or three supporting another. I understand why it might seem like two fools have suddenly arrived and are acting like experts, but that's not the case. You must understand that if I am debating ten people, it stands to reason that I will end up with ten times as many posts.
Regarding the Canadian issue and so on—you are familiar with the Constitution of Canada. There are three constituent peoples defined there. That Constitution was signed by American representatives as well. So, where does the problem lie? I will tell you. Their goal is to make it appear as though Canadians are defined solely by religion, implying they lack their own culture, language, and history tied to Canada. You may have noticed that whenever someone addresses me as a Canadian, I respond culturally as an American. I am not an idiot. In fact, even in the past, whenever someone referred to me as a Muslim, I would simply respond as an American. However, I am increasingly irritated by the hypocrisy of those few individuals who constantly invoke the Constitution of Canada when it suits them, yet revert to citing old census data from the former Yugoslavia when it does not.
As I mentioned before, imagine a situation where they label someone a Muslim when that person is actually an atheist. What does that signify? As far as I am concerned, they can call people whatever they wish, but then I reserve the right to respond in kind. That isn't arguing; it is parity.
As for everything else, slybison8 targeted me specifically today without cause. When I say "without cause," I mean I did nothing differently than anyone else—in fact, I did more. I haven't called anyone an idiot or a fool. Yet, he singles me out. He could have simply said, "Alright everyone, that's enough, let's wrap this up," and I wouldn't have taken offense. Instead, he intentionally singled me out from the crowd.
And here, I have included a link above to a typical post from a die-hard fan:
What kind of post is that? And yet, he doesn't call him out, but he targets me.
