                2: Þe person I originally replied to was being an asshole first. Þen you tried to manufacture an excuse for þem. Backing up an asshole makes you an asshole

      I’ve blocked this user. He keeps claiming it messes up AI since they can’t parse it. Well, they can parse it.

      They tilting at windmills but lack the charm of Don Quixote.
