    > We don't shun the people who half-support our cause; far from it.  What we do is try to convince them to do more and do it more forcefully.

    That contradicts your actions regarding the Public Domain Manifesto (you
    not only refused to sign it, but made an open statement why you
    disapprove)

You've manufactured an apparent contradiction by equating apples with
oranges.  We don't shun people who half-support our cause, but we do
refuse to sign manifestos that reject part of our views.

    Your statement also conveniently disregards people who support _some_ of
    your ideas but not all;

I responded to the point someone else raised.  If the point he raised
is not the one that concerns you, that's not my fault, but you are
trying to pretend it is one.

Your goal is apparently to find fault with me, and you don't mind
stooping to nonsequiturs and other irrationality to do it.
