do you think they would be more willing than you to stop engaging dishonestly?

[–] federatingIsTooHard 1 points 11 months ago

What’s hypocritical about noting, “these, ‘Got it. You just don’t x.’ responses are tiresome”? Do you not recognize the obvious snarkiness and straw-man fallacy? Are you saying I’m not allowed to call this out?

i'm saying you are doing teh same thing, and you're right that they are exhausting, so you should also knock it off.

why are you replying multiple times to the same comment instead of just consolidating your response into one?

i don't like to have multiple ideas in one comment, and i have found it's an excellent tactic for breaking up a gish gallop. you can read more here:

Did you do that?

Did you tell them as well that, “it takes two to tango”?

Curiously you did not.

i asked you to be the bigger person.

kindly explain your thought-process when you respond with simply re-quoting what I said

i was pointing out the hypocrisy

, I’m not really sure what the point is that you’re making.

i'm saying don't use dishonest rhetoric

another appeal to ridicule? can't you just accept that it takes two to tango, and you are actively making this place worse?

hahahah what the hell are you saying? You think PEW is flawed? Do tell how. Do you even understand how statistics work? I bet you didn’t even look at their methodology let alone MoE.

appeal to ridicule

everything is a matter of personal opinion, there is no right or wrong, and by extension there is no objective reality.

The purpose is to create a general sense that nothing you hear on the news is to be trusted, because everything is presented out of some hidden agenda, and since everyone has an agenda and everyone is obviously a miserly selfish narcissist like conservatives who ever only think about themselves, then why should you trust anyone?

why would you believe anything different?

I'm not pretending anything. I'm demanding evidence

[–] federatingIsTooHard 0 points 11 months ago

Literally the comment u replied mentions a kgb defector talking about it.

what evidence do you have that they were in fact a defector, they ever worked for the kgb? and, further, he only discusses soviet programs, he doesn't go back "centuries"
