THERE'S BLOOD IN THE BOX

i don't know, chum, it looks like you're arguing with it 🍿

holy shit those ufc fighters are gigantic

That's how you get Magna Carta where the aristocrats, the most powerful people, go to the king and say, we want power too.

Tell me you don't know what the Magna Carta is without saying you don't know what the Magna Carta is.

he's literally correct about what the magna carta is

yeah, but it still specifically protected barons, not the common person

when he says this:

That's how you get Magna Carta where the aristocrats, the most powerful people, go to the king and say, we want power too

he's correct

dropping the emojis again i love it

your post boils down to "marxism good because i say", which is a shit argument for marxism

there's really nothing more to it than that, and it's pretty obvious that you've realised it at this point

hence how pointedly you're avoiding actually engaging with anything i say and i'm here for it every step of the way

it's hilarious that you think that has anything to do with your post

ah and thus we arrive at the final stop of our journey

"the right answer is right because i say it is right", confirming that, at no stage did you have anything resembling a good point to make in its defense

i'm glad we could all reach this together i'm so happy for us

oh my god it was beautiful

it was nearly an argument and then it just crashed and burned so quickly, and it was so clearly meant to be some kind of coup de grâce

reasoning about the actual mechanics, and thinking through their implications

okay so if a person grows up in the wrong environment, and so they reason about the actual mechanics, and think through the implications in a way that you don't like, it's bad

but when they do it and get an answer that you do like, it's good

the only difference between the two scenarios is your personal opinion on their conclusion

excuse me buddy i think you need to work on your

reading comprehension

let's try again

can you trust a person's gut reaction? yes or no?

oh my god is that the point you were trying to make? i kind of assumed it wasn't because it actually doesn't help your argument in any way

like, okay, you're shaped by your surroundings. so? so you can't trust your gut because your surroundings could have shaped you to have the wrong gut reaction?

incredible that you're actually arguing against yourself now

the magna carta protected the rights of some barons, not the common people, so he's actually correct

my guy it's actually comical how shit your comebacks are getting

can you trust it? yes or no? it's a pretty simple question

can you trust a gut reaction or not? i'm getting mixed messages here

have you forgotten what your point was? because a minute ago it was that you could trust the average person's gut impulse when it came to political philosophy. now it's that you can't? are you feeling okay?

taps the sign

Donald Trump, a fascist, is currently polling about equally with his opponent, who is not a fascist, because while his policies are fascist, he isn't describing them as such. People are willingly voting for them because they think they're a good idea.

If he campaigned on "I am a fascist", he would not be polling equally with his opponent.

Please explain how these two ideas put together aren't an example of what you advocate for in your post.

You'll also notice that me referencing polling figures doesn't mean that I agree with the outcome of polling. Absolutely shocking that I need to make this clarification, but there we go, I suppose.

Or, you know, continue desperately avoiding making an actual argument because of how obvious it is that you accidentally made a pro-fascism, pro-eugenics post and for some reason can't accept that fact.

don't make me tap the sign

also to preempt pls nobody do the intellectually dishonest thing of pretending me following this line of argument means im in love with eugenics and am here to argue for more eugenics or that i just dont think eugenics is such a bad thing after all thnk u

on the other hand, your post advocates for fascism and eugenics

Says the fash who thinks that most people support eugenics.

buddy i'm not the one making posts in support of fascism

if you say "sorry i'm stuck at work" it doesn't mean that your boss has literally chained you in place
