Is it possible to expect people to show the weakness of being wrong? Or changing their view?

We have posters here that, from I can tell, act like any number of other cyber-forums.
Sarcasm is called lies. Mean stuff is inaccurately referred to as sarcasm. Analogies taken out of context.

Things that are just pounded home day after day. Useless for the most part except to try to needle someone.
Sure, there are times when a "reminder" makes sense. Priceless stuff.
Most of it ain't priceless though.

Once in a great while when someone admits they were wrong a modicum of respect is shown.
Maybe even a greenie or two. So why is it so rare?
Is being an infallible Chatroom Champ really that enticing?

There many examples of all this crap but I'm starting out neutral.

Is there an example of you leading by example?

It would have quite an impact, coming from a Mod of your stature...

If Fonzi couldn't say the word.......maybe that was pre-internet foreshadowing.

Ok....I'll lead...


I was wrong a couple of years ago.

@*HooooeyVagina asked me where I believed surveys of Presidential scholars would rank the Biden presidency.

I suggested he would be ranked in the low to mid 20s.

@*HooooeyVagina was right to scoff at my prediction.

I was wrong.


 

That was really cathartic.

I was wrong for calling Blackvegetable a Karl Marx worshiping Communist. 

No, wait, I wasn't wrong about that.

The difference between you and I is I admit when I am wrong.  In the very instance you do admit you are wrong it is not because you are rarely wrong.  It took you MONTHS, literally months, to adit PK was a mistake.  You ran and ran from that one.  You still have not admitted Biden was wrong, was lying, make the 5x comment.  And you still have not admitted it was not a gun in pieces.

That is just to name a few.  You blame others, you lie, and basically are a dishonest POS.  If your daughter thinks you are wonderful she too is a POS.

Just stating the facts.

It is rare because I don't stick my neck out or shove my nose into things of which I am unfamiliar. You are a perfect example of posters that could never admit to a change of heart as alluded to directly in the OP.

A perfect example is your unwavering support of an incompetent and fully incapable president even as his decline became more and more evident. You are sort of a Joe Scarborough here. Many posts, very frequently wrong-headed, unable to admit to anything... A true Chatroom Champ.

Also, your post is a great example of your predictable "accuse others of that which you are guilty".
Thank you for participating.
 
 

You always learn more from losing than winning.

I was wrong to say Maindunce was a cowardly deserter....he could have died for all I know.

I'm sorry.

Your grief, shallow as it is, still is grief. An admission of this type will help you sleep at night.
Thank you for your support.

Anyone serving a reality isn't neutral about how evolving actually happens in plain sight. Almost every mind follows a faith life exceeds adapting eternally separated by genetic position alive now as traditionally believed over the last 400 generation gaps lived in time debating anything else is possible.

those that challenge humanity as a whole disappear one way or another. Ignored, shunned, exiled, executed, by the minority in charge of what majority believes true, from day in and to day out.
