    So if I have no proof the protests didn’t cause this, and you have no proof they did, I’d say it’s a wash and both are wrong.

    Which was my point all along.

    Just accept that a good thing happened without taking credit for something someone who you do nothing but shit on did.

    Also, Internet discussions aren’t something one worries about “crushing” when they’re an adult. I’m not here to “crush” anything. I just disagree with your definition of “proof.”

    Nothing more. Maybe relax a bit. We can just agree to disagree.

      I’m not here to “crush” anything.

      It’s redundant to point out what can be readily observed by all, but however ineffective you are, it’s clear you are trying to “crush” this.

      I just disagree with your definition of “proof.”

      You appear to actually disagree with my definition of evidence, since I’ve been open about the distinction, and you’ve ignored repeated offers to engage with my evidence, opting instead to double down on demanding proof in the face of overwhelming evidence.

      One last try for posterity: why are you so sure that the protests had nothing to do with it, given how numerous, persistent, widely covered they are, and given the fact that they are happening during what may be the most impactful US presidential race in modern history?

      Maybe relax a bit. We can just agree to disagree.

      Your gaslighting is as clumsy as your attempts at discourse. I am writing this from my mobile phone, sat at a nice lakeside park on a lovely if overcast day, during my lunch break. You might be excited, but this isn’t even taxing my pulse. Maybe stop projecting. We started this out agreeing to disagree, I just wanted you to check your tether to reality, though it’s clear to me now that it’s been dangling uselessly for a while now.

        Right. I’m trying to crush being the opposition in a wind-tunnel.

        Get over yourself man. This smug self-righteousness works in high school, but it’s obnoxious to an adult.

        I made my point. I wont apologize because you don’t like it.

        Blocking you now.
