I know you have to think that, because the alternative is introspection, and you are very afraid of that.

There's a reason I typed what I did to snipa, because there are people in this exact thread who I have many disagreements with and do not call a shill, and this totally upends your defense mechanism.


You are projecting. I like debating because it's a fun mental exercise. If you make bad arguments, you learn to make better ones.

Snipa is a moderate guy. You have a problem managing your emotions and it results in you lashing out. Think of it as an opportunity for introspection.

The only time I get emotional is when the other person is not arguing in good faith. You've been especially dishonest these past few years, and I'm not the only one to point it out.

Still, you're over-reliance on this "you're getting emotional" thread is so you can avoid that you have very obvious contradictions. You want to paint Democrats as a country destroying force so you can reconcile your shameful support these past few years.

I don't see how calling someone a shill means you're being emotional. It can be an accurate description.

Like they didn't talk bout Biden son issues. It's the same shit on both side. I been saying it for a while. The real losers here are the people. We're getting fucked sideways and we have to take it and stay silent. Just look around, we all locked in curfews with huge fine if breaking that law for a political virus that made corporation BILLIONS. Each fake virus as bad as the flu will bring them BILLIONS. That's how you print money. Through MSM/Fearmongering.

The amount of families that lost their family business, the small companies who were staying afloat now closed because of the flu. Who you think will benefit from that? People who flip real estate/open new business at these prime locations. Guess in who's pocket that $ will go? Yup. Don't worry, here's a 1200$ stimulus for the month that you gave us last year as tax form. We'll take it soon but hush now!

Few years ago it was USA VS NK
Then USA vs Russia
Then USA vs China

Now it's the COVID and the division between people (#BLM, #PROUDBOYS, #KKK, #ANTIFA ....)

It's real fucking easy to follow their agenda. You just need to take a step back and forget your part of a group that tunnel vision one way of living. See things for what they are. Ask yourself if that's normal or if whatever shit sound legit.

At the end of the day, do you really believe the corporations care who's the Gov? Look what they did to JFK. Anyone is a pawn in this world and everyone can be bought vs money. If a group of thug that is more powerful than the Gov tell someone if they don't bend over, byebye their family+their lives, what you think will happen? Everyone is disposable in this world.

The two most powerful thing in this world are: MONEY and The power to communicate an idea to the people. If you are able to do both (Have $ and convince people through the biggest media (MSM, Facebook, Twitter and any other massive media platform) that's when you have real power as you can put an idea in people mind that will slowly grow into hatred/love bout something.

Money talk.

We all know there was voting fraud and that Trump got stolen an election. Am i trying to say Trump should be the prez? No he's fucking trash. What i'm trying to say is, if you guys are willing to let something huge like this slip because of your political conviction when there's at least a dozen ONE IN A MILLION CHANCE situations that stacked together show that whatever happened is fucking sketchy.. That's when you give up on some of your human rights to prove yourself you're right on something that doesnt matter for what YOU/THE PEOPLE need.

Try not to read between lines that aren't there. I'm not sure what good or bad faith is. I try to construct strong arguments. Sometimes we make arguments because it's interesting to see where they go. That is part of healthy discussion.

You feel shame when you've done something wrong. Beliefs are what they are. Sometimes it's necessary to adjust, and some things remain the same. I would love it if the Democrats became the party of liberalism again. I have no desire to see antifa raging in the streets or professors fired for giving voice to unpopular beliefs. But that is the reality in which we live, and it seems likely to only get worse. One can disagree with Trump and despise the direction in which the left is taking us, the two aren't exclusive.

Considering you spent virtually zero time making any criticism of Trump for the past four years (I literally never saw a single post from you doing so), yeah. Hard to take you seriously. You've tried to play the "I hate both sides" act while criticizing the left and bending over backwards to defend Trump's lackeys.

You're honestly just like Cam in that regard.

He needs me to be emotional for the same reason Sunny spent the last three weeks calling me a not-white foreigner. If I'm not emotional then I might be right and his ego couldn't handle the necessary introspection that would entail.

Of course I have, dating back to well before the election where I was criticizing Trump's promise to renege on the TPP. But it's hardly been my focus, there are plenty of people already doing that.

I defended Barr because he had been maligned unjustly beyond all reason. Barr has been vindicated. I defended McConnell, despite whatever our disagreements are, and McConnell has been vindicated. The Russian collusion investigation was a travesty.

We are all more likely to ignore news that we don't like. It's something that we need to take care and guard against. See how you guys have contorted yourselves over the past year to avoid acknowledging wide-spread left-wing violence over police shootings that have been, at the vest best, widely misrepresented.

So the most recent example you can give is before the 2016 election.

Yeah thanks for proving my point.

You didn't just defend Barr, you bent over backwards to defend Flynn and Manafort and actively tried to conflate Bidens behavior with Flynn with zero evidence.

You bent over backwards to defend the indefensible and now you have to pretend the other side is just as bad or worse to save your ego. You're basically the only one who doesnt see it.

“i have criticized Trump dating back to before x date” is not a one-time event from before the 2016 election. heck you can look at bogie’s recent posts and find criticism of Trump. talk about lack of honesty from you after moaning about supposed dishonesty

inb4 usual repressed frustrated homophobic retort
