- Civility ended when you wrongfully and baselessly accused me of being a fascist. You're making a lot of assumptions about me based on a single book I cited and that I stated that the earth can't sustain populations in the billions indefinitely (which isn't even a controversial statement). When you fashjacket people, don't be surprised when they tell you to fuck off.
