That happened because you said something that could easily be misinterpreted that way....

Excellent! Thanks for the info.

Why did your mind make that leap?

This, remember?

How did it "Sound like that"?

It's something that is commonly said by people arguing that women shouldn't be able to vote/run for office

And have I ever argued for that?

You clarified and said you didn't believe that. I have no reason to doubt that claim. I'm just saying you shouldn't get mad at someone if something you said could be misinterpreted a certain way.

Ok.

So, I stated a thing. You leapt to a conclusion, and it's my fault that your mind made that leap because somewhere in the world, scumbags exist. That's your argument?

Like, I understand that I wasn't 100% clear, but let's be honest, text chat aint the best way to communicate deep ideas either.

I'm not saying it's your fault, just that communicating more precisely would help you avoid these situations. What I am saying is what I said in this message above I am replying to.

Look, I do not divide the world's systems into "Socialist" or "Not socialist" because it's not helpful.

When people are earnestly trying to communicate ideas and philosophies, just saying "That's socialism" and walking away doesn't change their minds about anything. Not in the history of ever.

You take what they're trying to achieve and you explain to them why it will not work out the way they expect.

I agree with that, but socialists often say capitalism is feudalistic, so in certain contexts, my argument would be called for.

If you were arguing with a socialist, maybe. But are you arguing with a socialist now?

@Sith_Emperor might i suggest u put the military memes in it's own section, not in misc area

No, but it seemed relevant, so that's why I brought it up

Alright, lets say you were arguing with a monarchist, and he believed monarchy would work, do you just call it socialism and walk away?

No. I'd give my reasons for why I don't like monarchy. But if the monarchist tried to say something like "you're a capitalist so you should like monarchy" then I may bring it up.

@Surgeon General Shirō Ishii Hey, i saw your video about fat people in <#801170165239906345> I just wanted to tell you that it is 54 seconds, (24 seconds over the limit), I suggest you take it down before you get a warn.

You need to dissect *why* he wants monarchy, right? And the reason why people have historically wanted monarchy is because they want meritocracy and they believe that the current system isn't doing a particularly good job of it.

Yes that's true that they believe that

I think I see where you're going, but continue

Right, and when talking with people, when earnestly discussing ideas, you must at least take in good faith that they believe what they say they believe in before continuing.

And this goes deeper than governmental systems, this gets into ethics.

And I forgot where I was going.

Yeah I agree with that

Goddammit.

@KALLA WARR your gonna get a warn for talking in the chat btw lol

I would recommend deleting...

Like I said the only reason I brought up similarities between socialism and monarchy was because it seemed relevant. I'm not the type of person to laugh off logical argumentation with a catchphrase.

Welp

Were you gonna say that was the point you were making when you said this?
