Aaaand we're done here.
You do realise that you just did exactly what those you were just condemning do right?
A piece of information comes across that you did not agree with, and rather than inviting critical debate or conversation, you dismissed the comment because it does not adhere to your current paradigm. This is the cognitive dissonance that you speak of, demonstrated by none other than yourself.
I have neither the time, patience, or interest, no matter what my opinion is. I have too many projects I have to complete, and this is a time waster. Not even sure why I said anything to begin with, frankly.
I'd also like to point out that I actually like you as a Steemit user, and I'd rather not jeopardize that with some stupid conversation about topics that we happen to disagree on, and which neither of us are even directly involved in.
