*** Official Politics Shitposting Thread ***

You are 100% a person whom is unwilling to have their ideas challenged by an intelligent viewpoint. To ensure you don't ever have to do so, you preemptively insult anyone engaging in dialogue with you. You condescend some supposed argument they will make before they've responded. You are the opposite of inviting to a contrary opinion, and you are single-mindedly opposed to the notion that 2 opposing ideas could be equally 'right.' You ignore the fact that almost every large-scale human system is epically flawed, but workable. You think capitalism is good and socialism is bad without nuance, absolutely blind to the many, many examples of how either can work just fine, so long as the populace makes it work.

You're a shitshow of insecurity and yes, you hide behind aggression so that you don't have to converse with a patient, intelligent person, but you attract vitriolic assholes to argue with. You have constructed the echo chamber in which your ideas ferment, and you prepetuate your ignorance by driving away anyone whom could show you that other world-views are absolutely working just fine for other people.

If you can't reflect on your own behavior enough to realize that you're an intellectual coward, then fine. Take some personal responsibility that you are surrounding yourself with idiots, because no actually intelligent person will engage you on your nonsense.


I don't understand how you can read and respond to the answer to your question, then repeatedly ask the question.
For reference, simply scroll up.
Drop the voluntary ignorance act.


I'll point out again that literally no one on FTR saying that interrupting TC and calling him a racist was rational.
I don't see why you can't get that.
You're so hell-bent on arguing about this that you can't see that no one disagrees with the core of your argument.
The only disagreement is that you see TC as an altruist, and no one else here does.


Get over yourself, man. I think ongie is the only one here whom has any respect for you, and I'd have to ask him if that's a personal assessment or simply his stance on free speech and letting people speak their peace. (piece? I always wondered)

Maybe dish out a little respect for the rest of us and drop the insecurity of hiding behind insults and watch everything around you become easier.

Just wrong. Bring me an intelligent viewpoint, and then see what happens.

What you're doing, is dumb. If it's intentional, then you're an ass hole. If it's not, then you're dumb. Which is it?

If you want to have an intelligent discussion, then you need to at the very least demonstrate some understanding of the issue.

This right here is completely indefensible

To the point:
TC was absolutely disingenuous in asking what diversity means and in postulating that it means the more different we are, the better

I completely reject the notion that TC was being disingenuous. The left says "Diversity is our strength" all the goddamn time. Tucker didn't make that up. That's not something he wrote. That's not a strawman he invented for entertainment value. That's something that gets said all the goddamn time. And it most obviously means "the more different we are, the better"

TC is asking, "Is that true"

I would LOVE to have an intelligent debate on this, or ANY subject. But it's never going to work if you can't even identify the question.

We're dozens of post into this TC stuff now, and you STILL don't even want to acknowledge the issue. Why is that? Do you not want to answer the question of diversity being our strength? Are you afraid of the answer? I think that's it. I think that you, and even folks in general, are afraid to follow this through logically and factually because the result may be something like "assimilation might be good". And that's something you (or folks in general) would absolutely HATE to acknowledge.

Now honestly Monkey, it's really hard not to insult you when you insist on dying on this retarded hill spouting Sesame Street rhetoric about "both sides" and "equally absurd". That's virtue-signaling at it's WORST. That's saying "I care more about looking moderate than I do about actually solving a problem"

[Poopadoop]

Just wrong.

No, it's absolutely correct.

Let's count the number of times on here you've actually tried to have an intelligent conversation with someone without insults and abuse.

0.

And if you feel it's because no-one else is intelligent enough to discuss the issues, then maybe you'd be happier somewhere else.

You're act is stale, mate.

Let's count the number of times on here you've actually tried to have an intelligent conversation with someone without warranted insults and abuse.

Now that the question is worded correctly, the answer stands at 3,618 and counting.

I've answered your question at least 2 times, and you disagree with my answer, so you assert that I haven't answered.
Childish, voluntary ignorance.

No one cares about TC. For you to pretend that he was behaving altruistically is nonsense.
Childish, voluntary ignorance.

For you to try to badger me into explaining the obvious to you for a 3rd time when you have not internalized my position yet is
wait for it
you hiding from the reality that you've received an intelligent answer which is in opposition to your assumptions.
(thought I was going to say Childish, voluntary ignorance again, didn't you?)


Why are you even posting on FTR, man? No one here is buying what you're selling. No one here has earned your respect after all this time.
Why are you here?
Other than to placate your own ego by getting yourself all riled up at the libtards, none of whom post on FTR, BTW, and shout at us about it.

Do you think that your inability to see nuance is mature?
We don't.

[BananaStand]

I've answered your question at least 2 times, and you disagree with my answer, so you assert that I haven't answered.

No, you answered a different question that you made up to distract from the real question.
Dumb

No one cares about TC. For you to pretend that he was behaving altruistically is nonsense.

When did I ever use the word "altruistic"? I believe his question is sincere and his desire for an intelligent response is authentic.

That's you making up words and sentiments again.
Dumb.

For you to try to badger me into explaining the obvious to you for a 3rd time when you have not internalized my position yet

YOU DON"T HAVE A POSITION!!! All you have is this immature baby wish that everyone can be right all the time and no one can ever be wrong. God damn it man.....you know you don't have to spend your life sucking post-modernism's dick. You just say fluffy stuff that sounds good. But that's never helped anyone solve anything ever.

It doesn't matter if Tucker's question is dumb, or if the answer is self-evidently obvious. Eliminating his ability to ask it, by threat of character assassination, is fascism at it's worst. It's literally dangerous. Not just absurd. Certainly not "equally absurd" as merely asking the question. I mean it is actually objectively harmful. If you can't acknowledge that without also contriving some rhetoric about 'the other side' then it is YOU who are the obstacle to reasonable discourse. I don't know if it's ignorance, fear, virtue-signaling, or what.

Why are you even posting on FTR, man?

I'm turned on by Oskar's avatar

No one here is buying what you're selling

I would like to bet a lung on the 'over'.

No one here has earned your respect after all this time.

How many times have you complimented my intelligence, just this month?

Other than to placate your own ego by getting yourself all riled up at the libtards, none of whom post on FTR, BTW

wut? Ok, out of curiosity now.....who would you consider a "libtard". Not just on FTR, you can name anyone.

Do you think that your inability to see nuance is mature?

I'm having a hard time reconciling the fact that you're an educator, and you think that the things you post here represent an attempt to explain nuance.

lol

Nice cross-post, poopy
