There is something like not feeding the troll.
Asking you to do such would imply that there is something to ignore
or to not answer to, when mostly there seems to be only noise and
extravagant word play.
It's unfortunate that such games are as effective as they are, as
the involvement with them, i.e. showing that some line of reasoning
is not valid, forces us to touch the stuff and actualize the
apparently false reasoning, which always appears to casual observers
as "there must be a point if discussion is heated"; when to the
inner participants it's increasingly clear that there is little to
be gained from discussion.
Of course this is one of life's tough decisions, but as I've grown
aware of this consistent insult/ad hominem situation, I see the
ambiguity/difficulty of the question. With that said, we are
hopefully in a space where we can ignore noise from time to time; so
it would not amaze me, if you take Cannabis' advice to take it easy,
and ignore John, more or less, from time to time. PGC
Wise answer, thanks
