OT: Current Affairs and Politics

[Suitman]

You're just upset because I pointed out your attempt to get up on the soapbox again and start moralising. After which you'd often attach laughing emojis to posts criticising me, when you'd just told everyone who'd listen you were above it all. Sorry to hurt your feelings but no one bought it.

Upset? Lol. I'm just calling out your bullshit replies.
You haven't hurt any feelings. I find your replies amusing if not somewhat misdirected and ill-informed and ignorant.

No you don't. That's why you had a meltdown yesterday. And not for the first time.

Wow, Russia is a special place.

I didn't see her tap on... Fair game IMO....

 

[Bandwagon]

So we agree, it's new.

Childish, borderline moronic.

Like ignoring the difference between legacy media and social media. One allows discussion.

You're desperately clutching at straws.

Yes, pointing out that censoring social media is censorship of the public is so sad. Choose a better hill.

Now you're ranting, and virtue signalling.

Nice combo.

Not particularly convincing though.

Not convincing to you, no. But any objective person would acknowledge the difference between legacy media and social media. There's no rant here.

It's irrelevant.

But keep clutching them straws.

Yup, pointing out that silencing the entire population is different than silencing just traditional media is clutching at straws. But hey, nothing burger.

 

[parra pete]

Wrong thread Oooooooops..

 

[the phantom menace]

Yup, pointing out that silencing the entire population

Uh, bit of an overstatement there... doncha think?

 

[hindy111]

Wrong thread Oooooooops..

That made me LOL

If you want to point out people who never admit they're wrong here you're going to have to take aim at others too.

I do.

 

[Gary Gutful]

It's certainly possible. Like I said I'm not an expert and was just replying to hindy with my opinion that scepticism is warranted. And given all the failed predictions about climate change that's fair enough.

There is a difference between scepticism and denial though.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Yep, it's not that hard to understand, government propaganda and censorship existed well before Twitter and the 'rona, and will continue to exist well after. Like I said, it's more that there's a whole new bunch of folks who've twigged that it can and does affect their lives.

Yep...

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

I do.

Not really. There's a couple of people that get special treatment. And yet here you are having a cowardly and misguided dig at me over a nothing post. If you want to have a dig at me just own it.

It was a test to see if you had enough self awareness to recognise yourself in it.

 

[Gary Gutful]

There's hope for you yet you argumentative, boring shit merkin of a human being.
