Nah, I'm just giving Stu a hard time...while trying to show him how ridiculous he can be and how him calling me a hypocrite actually is a Rorschach test for him and that in doing so he's being hypocritical himself but I don't expect him to see it. I realize that. I wish there was a better way to mend online fences, though. Billy Goats Delic can offer any bridge he lives under, I have no intentions of building one with him.

And this is an excellent example of your hypocrisy How about the apologist thing? You say you like being called an apologist but when I do it you bristle? But I don't expect you to see it... You're taking the discussion out of context or changing what I said. It what all the CGC members do when they start to ramble on and pour their haterade out.
They never quote people directly or keep the quote in context which is typical for people who are intellectually dishonest.
I never said being ANY apologist was a good thing. I said I didn't think the term apologist had a negative connotation when Steve took it as a negative thing.
What you are an apologist for matters, though.
Being an apologist for pedophelia would NOT be a good thing.
Being an apologist for a reasonable topic like picking a religious or a political side is an entirely different matter.
When you take people's words out of context or change their meanings, THAT is hypocrisy.
Take note.

Yep, that matters.

Doesn’t “building a bridge” and “mending a fence” seem completely opposite from one another? For that matter “burn bridges” and “tear down fences” both sound destructive, but one is considered a good thing, while the other is not. It’s a wonder we’re able to communicate ideas to each other at all.

Backpedal faster Roy, you can change the past!

With the exception of "Parker", I don't know who anyone is over here that is over there unless you use the name over there, over here.

Would being intellectually dishonest include people adding on qualifiers that are out of context? Not according to your quote: "As far as the term apologist, I've never had a negative association with that term". Maybe you should stop using the word "never"?

It’s a wonder we’re able to communicate ideas to each other at all. An experienced Constructor knows the similarity. Context. All the activities you state are similar. Not everything is a riot or protest context or negative connotation. My opinion, and mine only. Unless anybody disagrees, because then we are done communicating.

I can't believe after all these years they still haven't incorporated individual post links into their forum. That should have been there on Day 1.
