Hahaha
@Maw I'm not making the claim. You choose the word Half. Explain how it doesn't mean Half or 50%?
@William Dinan Language is rarely meant to be interpreted completely literally.
Hence, phenomena such as half truths.
Some politicians are successful precisely because of that.
Some.
Lol
@Maw I am unable to hear tone, volume or observe Body language in a Text Chat. Other than that I would agree. I can only observe the written Word!
'He was joking.' 'It's just how he talks.' 'It was locker room talk.'
You get the idea.
@William Dinan If that were not a half-truth, then Zulu would look like a really weird, fringe republican most of the time.
I can generally determine when he's being sarcastic versus when he's not.
Via text.
"Well that's a pretty ridiculous thing to say."
"he's probably being sarcastic."
Sarcasm can be a defense mechanism for true feelings?
"I was only Kidding"....
Eh? Are you insinuating Zulu is some sort of strange conservative or something?
No. My statement didn't say that.
Hence why I asked you rather than accused you.
@leftingfighter33 Calm down, no insinuating people should be hung, please. That's beyond ridiculous levels of rhetoric.
We don't live in the 1800s anymore.
It is obviously not literal
Nice
It is meant as why isnt she facing dire consequences for her actions
@leftingfighter33 This is why I specifically said 'rhetoric'
@Maw you are supporting my argument with your Post to @leftingfighter33 ?
"Hung"
Not at all.
Now they are proposing forcing you to get the vaccine to not starve. Stimulus check only to those who get the vaccine. This is evil.
@Maw your perception of his meaning of "Hung" is reality?
No, I literally said RHETORIC.
Sorry, yes you did.
That is awful. Who said that?
Beyond...
Good god. 46% of people who have done that poll (at the bottom of the page) thinks it’s a good idea. Wtf
It is a Quid Pro Quo plain and simple. Not a Stimulus or Relief Package?
Even Vox is reporting on these monoliths now.
@leftingfighter33 where does it say you have to get the vaccine? It just says if you get it you also get 1500.
