lonetrucker4 said:I won't argue over whether it was a "lie," because, frankly, I made a clumsy mistake. I meant to reply to your post, but instead of hitting "QUOTE," I accidentally hit "EDIT"—I didn't even realize what happened until it was too late, and my original text was gone.
If you happen to have that text saved somewhere, just send it to me in a private message and I'll append it to the post. If not, just rewrite roughly what you said and post it again as a new entry.
Even a kid in preschool understands the difference between an "edit" button and a "delete" button... surely someone with your level of literacy can grasp that distinction. Because if things had actually unfolded the way you're trying to claim, you would have edited the text, not wiped mine out entirely. So much for your clumsy attempts at making excuses.
And if you truly believe I’m narcissistic enough to be archiving everything I write here, then you are sorely mistaken—just as you are in so many other matters.
lonetrucker4, try being an objective moderator for once, rather than acting like some "Duspara American Civil War" zealot.
When you make claims—regardless of how much I might disagree with them (and believe me, I know you're wrong)—back them up with solid, reliable sources. Don't just present whatever fits your current narrative, or, as we see here, blatantly delete my words and insert your own lies under my username.
lonetrucker4, the war is over. This anti-war crusade of yours is pointless... there's no sense in trying to sell us this fog of uncertainty now.
One more thing: allowing insults against anyone is a failure of your role. You can despise Franjo Tuđman or Šušak all you want, but if you intend to be objective, you cannot permit personal attacks. An insult is an insult, period. It doesn't matter which side of the political spectrum it comes from. I would never go so far as to call someone like Stjepan Mesić a gutter rat. I won't call Parag a malicious, extremist idiot. Nor will I label Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović as some remnant of a failed regime. That’s why I maintain that calling Franjo Tuđman names like Šupak, Krivousti, or similar slurs shouldn't be tolerated if one wishes to remain objective.
But if you prefer to be a prisoner of your own obsessive frustrations—much like #worm—then insults will simply become your standard mode of communication. A level I refuse to descend to.
And please, don't let a blunder like this happen again. After all, you've been quite condescending with me before, telling me: "You're being warned!"
