And Trump is Putin's pet.
Nazi's blame all their problems on a grand Jewish conspiracy, BlueMAGA blame it on a grand Russian one. Ultimately they're both fascists.
Why do you think a conspiracy is necessary for Trump to be Putin's pet?
You seem to be convinced that I'm some kind of conspiracy theorist but I already told you I think Trump is a "Russian agent" through happenstance.
....
Blueanon is beyond parody.
Try not jumping to conclusions
"I didn't say anything about a conspiracy! I just said Biden is a puppet of George Sores!"
Least disingenuous fascist.
I didn't say anything about a conspiracy with Russia, and I certainly didn't say anything about George Soros (I assume)
Are you okay?
You know what I meant, I know you know what I meant, everyone else reading knows you know what I meant. What are you hoping to accomplish by playing dumb?
You're too much, buddy.
“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”
― Jean-Paul Sartre
You are the one who jumped to a conclusion and proceeded to liken me to a nazi. Quoting classical thinkers won't change that.
I did indeed liken you to a Nazi, what exactly is your point?
That you are all rage and no content
My content was that you a like to a Nazi. I'm gathering that you're one of those people who thinks words are just for insulting, and don't have deeper meaning.
I did not realize that was content. You surely don't expect some stranger on the internet to infer some deeper meaning to being likened to a nazi? In what way am I like a nazi?
Really telling on yourself here. Maybe you should actually read my posts.
My favourite genre of post: present a strawman in the form of a question, then scoff at how ridiculous the strawman question is.
How is it a straw man? It's a clear implication of your words. Explain how else your position could be interpreted.
"You didn't say it, but I have decided it's what you meant" Totally not a strawman
Try actually reading what I said, rather than trying to concoct some absurd, bad faith 'interpretation.'
I did. Twice now. Given the context, there is no other interpretation. Go ahead and downvote this too. It won't make you right, but I bet it makes you feel like you won something.
My man is legitimately having a conversation entirely within their own head now.
At least mine isn't stuck in a box. You gotta let it breath bro.
