wow, trivial
Voltaire is widely quoted for lines like “Common sense is not so common” and “No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thinking.”
However, some popular attributions are wrong—for example, a well-circulated “absurdities/atrocities” quote is described as a hoax and not found in Voltaire’s own wording.
@Damocles he did change my post.
The job of reporting minor shit has been given to Mr. Tiny Penis. Stop being a whiny Karen; let that asshat handle the snitching jobs.
I have never done it before, but since he got my thread removed by whining, Ima do it.
I knew that.
So you posted it anyway with an attribution you knew to be false?
16. Quote Box Altering:
One can alter a quote box by removing some of a wall of text to expose the specific part you are responding to, or splitting it apart so you can respond to each item one at a time. However, altering the words posted and changing the meaning of what they said for whatever reason (a joke for instance) is not allowed unless you either change the "quoted by" portion of the quote to make it clear that the original poster did not post what you are "making" them say or if you leave the original text with a strikethrough and a "correction" and/or inform that you have "corrected" the quote in your response to it (something like "fixed that for you" or FTFY will do fine). We will begin by deleting these posts, and if it continues we will get into banning. I will update this rule with changes until it settles in.
Example:
A bad "quote" that we would delete:
An altered "quote" that would not be deleted:
Yes.
It is funny how you can trace a quote but cannot figure our the meaning of words like "absolutist."
Well, then.
Like I said, you cannot understand simple terms like "absolutist."
I don't recall saying that.
Because you always lie.
And you are a half wit who gets lost in discussions not involving pasting stuff from grok.
Do I?
See, now you are trolling. This is why I usually ignore you. You know this and persist.
I asked you a question about a claim that you made. How is that trolling?
Wrong. I answered a question and you repeated to ask same question. Don't fucking waste my time--it is all you do
