You called me an idiot after a few hours of us talking in what was apparently good faith. This isn't tone policing because it's not the way that you're formulating your argument that I'm objecting to, rather, it's the fact that you're mixing arguments with name-calling. There's very little point in us continuing to engage as everything I say that doesn't confirm your worldview is more evidence that I'm a shill. Where do we go from there? You're clearly not interested in a discussion.

I mean you could just say "I'm not shilling for China" and that would go a long way. Maybe list a couple of the horrible things they've done.

Either way, I'm willing to engage with you, I'm just skeptical of your motives.
