You are right. That statement, which I uttered
after your accusation, is in fact contempt. I have nothing but contempt for your baseless attempts to psychoanalyze why I post on the internet.

My intent was not analysis, as you judged through your apparent filter of contempt, but understanding.

Sorry, but attemts at "understanding" stop at "Why do you do X?". You making guesses afterwards is just rampant speculation/attacks in convenient question form.
By your logic, if I had said:
"Redzed why did you post such a false statement? Is it because you're dumb? A moron? Utterly fucking stupid? Is it because you were dropped as a child?" et cetera, that would be a legitimate attempt at "understanding".
You and I both know that's not the case. They pass the realm of "legitimate attempt to understand" when you start speculating. That they were in question form is inconsequential.

This has nothing to do with how much I know. I never once mentioned quantity, nor did I suggest people should care how much, or what, I know. I said you should care about the truth or falsehood of what I said.
2+2=4 is true regardless of whether I care a lot or I care a little. It is true regardless of whether I'm stating it in a "sick pathetic attempt to bolster my ego" or if I'm stating it in a healthy attempt to eduate you.
So, like I said, you should be interested in the truth or falsehood of what I say, not why I say.
Though if you want to discuss the "why" of things, why not start with why you only get this convenient curiousity when it's against people you disagree with? Why don't you ask these very same questions to Obbe, for example, who has called me a dick multiple times in multiple threads?
