Absolutely.

I guess their trauma changes all the words around on my posts.
And there you go. Acting like the victim. 

You make vaguely comprehensible posts usually utilizing the aforementioned shorthand where you think that everyone should easily understand you, and then you cry foul when suddenly people don't understand you like you're being wronged. 

Quick tip: if nobody ever seems to understand you, sometimes it's not everyone else who is at fault.

Data on the actual efficacy of our education system.  Facts, not feelings.
What data on the actual efficacy? I want to see it.

What facts? I want to know them.

He said he doesn't have them, never claimed to have them, and my response was apparently "stupid", I'm not sure how exactly, but I'm stupid.

He claims to get picked on around here after posting very clear articulate posts.  It seems to happen often.  Then he basically goes away for a while and ignores any questions.  Fine with me, I would too.

I thought they already had subscriptions, whatever, I don't think this will work very well.  I see subscriptions all over on business news sites, have none of them, some are quite pricey, over $100 per annum.  I mostly use the sites to get quick stock prices without logging on to my account.  Schwab has made logging on incredibly easy now.

Not a criticism of you at all, but I'm tired of shit like this.  'What people think' IS NOT 'how things actually are.'

20-25 years ago, there was a MASSIVE shift in news obsessing about how people feel about a thing vs what actually is.  I guess it's because it garners more eyeballs, but it's breaking our society. 

I don't give a shit if 40% of people are delusional dipshits, I care about what's true.  What is. 
Keeping tabs on ratings for news hours or channels is a society-endangering thing. 
So, tell us what is true.

Data on the actual efficacy of our education system.  Facts, not feelings.

Sure thing, and I explained why I personally think "what people think" is important.  If he doesn't, fine with me, though it's of course unknown in this case what "facts and data" he would use to make judgments about our educational system.

I've never seen someone on social media so consistently claiming he's picked on and misunderstood.  It's quite amazing.
