One of the least pleasant traits of thoughtless extremists

Is how they chop up thoughts and statements of others in order to "prove" that they are correct.
It is nothing less than a cheap attempt at thought control and manipulation.
It is notable that the two here who do that the most on this bbs are Bowser and publius.
