Your comment was dismissive and empty of any logic, reasoning, facts, argument, citations or anything else. I believe that you should disagree with someone substantively, or not at all.

BUT, very important., nearly always when I make such a comment, I have already checked to see that the person in general does not contribute anything of value. I did not, and you can clearly write and aren't some right wing crazy.

So I was very much in the wrong. My apologies - I need to be more careful. And to be frank the barrages of crazies are wearisome and have made me sloppy but that's a bad excuse - "not answering" is always an option.

(Regarding Martinchek, I strongly appreciate her efforts to drag the Overton Window back to the left, without agreeing with everything she says.)

Thanks for the polite rebuke, and have a good day!
