"Yes, really. There was a specifc reference to that comment but also the thread in general, which didn't mention shills, and a reply which didn't reference that comment, but the thread in general."

I have no idea what you are talking about - the comment I was replying to made a statement that many other comments including the one about radicalization are the product of the 50 Cents Party. It's the only way it was talking about other comments.

Perhaps, your statement about 'poor reasoning' and 'poor dialog' applies to you as well and your sense of superiority is unwarranted.
