> Drop the "mischaracterising" routine. You're asserting specific things, so expect to get challenged when they're nonsense.

If I said "Coca Cola wants to lay claim to being the best cola soda in the world", I'm sure you would also say to me: "Patently untrue. Where exactly in Coca Cola's public statements are we to find that statement?!", instead of, perhaps reflecting, and asking yourself -- is that a reasonable belief for one to hold, given Coca Cola's marketing?

If I am not conforming to your expectations, perhaps it is because your expectations that need a reset.

Ubuntu wants to lay claim to "the Rust distribution" and it's hard to blame them when Linux wants to lay claim to "the Rust kernel".

You stated this as fact, as an active statement and goal. It isn't. At all. It's made up fantasy.

Trying to reframe things after, by changing that statement into "oh, that's just an idea I had!" and then blaming others, is invalid and dishonest.

You seem to want to blame others for your made up, untrue statements being challenged. Give it a rest. Your attempts to blame shift will gain no traction here.

You stated something as fact that is not. You were wrong to do so. You are wrong to blame me for pointing it out. You are wrong to continue complaining.

You are wrong.

Clear?

Ugh. Well, I suppose it must seem very unfair to live a life without the benefit of figurative language and/or subtextual meaning. Know that I'm praying for a cure.

Good luck sir or ma'am!

Nothing you alude to above is remotely accurate, and simply another attempt to redirect.

You've now crafted multiple lies, over your muktiple replies, to explain away your untrue statements. This too is wrong.
