>You call taking a hat off at the table “manners”.

it is. again, look at all the responses to the question of "whats wrong with men wearing hats indoors/at the table"

>I said it’s not manners, it’s appeasing the mob. I.e,
>people such as yourself who see this as a significant issue
>that requires someone else acquiesce to your archaic and
>arbitrary demand for conformity.

where did I say all that (you pointed out elsewhere, legitimately, that is not cool to misquote others)?

>The fact that you and others like you ultimately fall back on
>it being a social norm as your logical endgame it’s pretty
>much the definition of a mob rule.

that is very bizarre logic. well played.

you still didn't answer the question though...

the OP was about a specific person asking another person to take their hat off at the table during mealtime, I asked YOU why that got drawn out to being a mob?

you didn't answer, directly anyway.

instead you went all ...wherever....

so, from that indirect response is it fair (to you) to say that all what you typed (particularly the bit about "definition of mob rule") is the equivalent of a YES response to my above questions?
