He's a factophobe and won't click any links or argue their merits of anyone he disagrees with. he's here for soft jabs and circle jerking and nothing more. but engage him if you like, i generally just wait for him to make a claim then ask for his source so i can make fun of the www.christainfamilyplanningresearchcenter.org or something similar source with hacky paid for results methodology.


I just don't get why he isn't in general chat then, that's what that place is for. I got all my warn there back in the day then once I decided to adult I came here for grown up conversations, lol.

Endless has a long running rapport with many FAR left individuals here, and they engage him. His only goal is to "collect liberal tears", he doesn't care one fig for winning in policy in reality, he's just a child who wants the other side to be mad behind the guise of caring about how this country is run, much like most of the alt-right. In gc people smell a troll a long ways off, for some reason here they get engaged more even when their feeble attempts are as transparent as endless' always are. All he needs to do is log on a few times a day and post "liberalism is a mental disorder" or "liberals are afraid of facts", or even worse state some stupid claim like "homosexuals disproportionately sexually abuse their children", to which he has no proof or more often proof he isn't smart enough in stats to understand.

on a personal note he's been accused for years of lying about his credentials he waves to act superior, i personally think he's half as smart and educated as he pretends.

Ah. I've said too many times that I'm just going to ignore him, I don't know how he always baits me into replying. I'm just gonna stop now. Thanks ;3

the less intelligent a person is the stronger they can invoke your reaction to tell them off for being wrong. sometimes i ignore it sometime i choose to engage him if he's especially wrong, but his tendency to chalk an entire conversation up to "well colleges are all liberal" so that he can avoid addressing a study entirely made me stop posting sources preemptively. its more effective to ask for his, as they're usually so bad that who ever did the study got paid to lose tenure over them and join some conservative/christian thinktank org.

Well typically I can tell who the trolls are around here but sometimes he acts like he's half-assed serious about having some sort of debate. But then I just get pulled into shit like this. I have literally never seen him post a source for anything though, it's always "do your research from those types.

there was a running tally for a while pre-election of terrible sources he posted from christian and conservative biased think tanks. post election it's been mostly meme level posts from him with the occasional debate. the irony of him denying sources because they vaguely come from a potentially biased massive institution while also seeking out the most biased sources in existence is either lost on him or a part of his "troll".

that example i used is one he did. claimed gays sexually abused their children, then posted a study where the professor lost tenure for that skewed data collection for physical abuse with zero mention of sexual abuse. also raised voices was the bar for abuse. and the researcher chose gays who had either married later in life or worse yet brought in children from former marriages and contrasted them with nuclear hetero families. it was honestly one of the worst studies ive ever seen, and it didnt even say what he claimed at all.

My favorite was his claim that college makes you less knowledgeable about economics.

His source was a garbage paper in a 0.001 impact factor journal that boiled down "economic clarity" to like 4 garbage questions.

After that he's been very hesitant to post sources, and when he does he isn't even willing to defend them.


Most recently it was "intelligence is 80% genetic" and he posts a thesis instead of a journal article, and the thesis didn't even contain the claim he made.

Usually after those events he scampers off for a few days to lick his wounds and convince himself he's a super smart 130+ IQ.

They're also ignoring the wallstreet journal ceo council where the majority essentially admitted that the money will be going to shareholders, not investment.
