How dare you! I am mentally ill myself, and attacking me shows your bigotry.

Again with throwing someone else's words at me as if I agree with them or have to apologize for them. I thought I had made my opinions on SJW tactics pretty clear.

This is like talking to a particularly rigid telemarketing script, which doesn't even actually accomplish anything when its assumptions hold. Now that I think of it, I could swear I've seen that tactic somewhere before...

Now you understand. You feel defensive. As if you have to apologise. That's how mental illness is operationalised. That's the lever of power.

I don't feel defensive because I've possibly argued against a mentally ill person at all, since I don't think that's wrong (I'm also super circumspect that you are mentally ill).

Seriously, do you just have your side of the conversation written down somewhere and refuse to deviate from the script?
