Let me guess, you buy lottery tickets?
This happens every time the lottery is discussed lol.
Nope
I just understand that the world is mainly shades of grey instead of the black and white version most people here seem to see.
Sure bud I totally believe you, thats why you are arguing with everyone that the lottery is good and great and smart.
I literally said in my post I knew people like you were gonna come argue about it, and I couldn't care less. No matter how responsible you are, it's a waste of money, idgaf if you don't believe it. Have a nice day go do something else.
Where exactly did I argue that the lottery was good or great or smart...?
I 100% do believe it's a waste of money. That's why I don't do it myself. You seem to have assumed an awful lot just because I don't view everyone that plays the lottery as a stupid person.
Gambling is a horrible industry and it destroys lives, the world would be better without the lottery existing. I believe both of those things too, but it doesn't make everyone who has ever gambled a moron who can't manage their money.
Please show me where I said "everyone who has ever gambled a moron who can’t manage their money."
I clearly said "the average" do you not understand how language works? Why would you argue in favour of it, and why do you literally lie about what I said?
I am not wasting any more time with you, you are clearing acting in bad faith.
You didn't, and I didn't say you did either...
Heres the one point I was making (not even to you, but you've jumped in on half the comments I made interestingly):
You say I don't know how language works, but also that I've argued in favour of the lottery. Show me where.
Who is it that's really lying? The only lie I can see is you claiming I've lied. By all means provide a quote I've said which is an example of me acting in bad faith or outright lying about something though.
I'm more than happy leaving it alone but equally happy to continue the discussion, you're totally free to stop replying whenever you like :) x
What the fuck are you talking about? You said that I said "everyone who has ever gambled a moron who can’t manage their money" and I didn't, you can see the context, you lied that's not a debate. I didn't say those words, or other words you put in my mouth, you can't find me saying them because I didn't say them, the proof is right in front of you.
That is acting in bad faith, that is the lie, I have no idea how you cannot understand this or why you would think this is a debate. You claimed I said words I didn't, that in itself is an act of bad faith arguing, are you literally this dense or are just so dedicated to the debate you've abandoned all sense. The quote I provide is literally both of our last posts lmao, if you have the mental capability go look them up.
I am done with you, blocked.
Where though? I literally never said you said that.
You don't need to block me, I only reply to replies :) x
