Just because it serves your ego?

No thanks

BEcause it is a blatantly obvious fact? Nevermind I figured you would be incapable of agreeing on simple statements about reality. That much seemed clear I merely wanted to confirm.

My argument wasn't about the money spent but the damage caused by both industries

*Yet the attack on tobacco is miniscule*

HAHAHAAHAHAHA!

Yeah, in regards to the health risk

I repeat: what you THINK I'm arguing is irrelevant

See we could have agreed on a simple statement of reality yet you refused. This tells me everything I need to know.

Why should I agree to a strawman?

If there is a man made of straw that we both can see and confirm from simple observation should we not be able to agree on it?

ProTIp "strawman" has an actual meaning and cannot merely be used as a substitute for refusing to admit reality.

My argument differs from the argument you rebutted

Therefore strawman

I am trying, kindly, to explain to you that repeating the word "strawman strawman strawman" ever time you are simply wrong is not a magical invocation that means you are no longer wrong.....

I am trying, with babysteps, to explain that you created a strawman

Your refusal to see that it was indeed a strawman is not my problem

Next time don't interrupt people while they're explaining things and this type of thing doesn't need to happen

Again we could agree to a handful of simple statements about reality (which due to some definitional deficit you have decided to call 'strawman' as if that totemic invocation might alter reality). And, having that point of agreement move forward to develop arguments. An aborted attempt now due to the aforementioned reasons.

Think I will fuck off and have a beer now.

Yeah bye

Well that's a first. A shitshow I'm glad I missed.

anyone having a laugh over the fact the Dems are basically guaranteeing season 3 of the Donald Trump show? (or two depending how you view mid-term elections)

Absolutely me

I’m with Warren

Shut up contrarian

Warren is a clown

She is just gender bent Bernie but somehow more shady

A transracial mix between Hillary and Bernie

Corporate socialist

The DNC is just a circus at this point there is almost no one worth looking at any more

I have to patiently wait for the Libertarians to come up with not bill weld otherwise imma be forced to vote trump which is really going to annoy me

Senator Elizabeth Warren, Massachusetts (D) needs to be dressed in a straight jacket, strapped to a board, have electrodes strapped to Her temples, get attached to a medicated drip, and get placed into a climate controlled room where the walls, ceiling, and floor are Made out of Mattresses.

For the Record.

I dont think she is insane necessarily

I just think she is a crook

Y not both?

She knows what she is doing

They all do

They just arent honest about their reasoning or the effects of their policies.

They know and continue anyways, repeating the same action expecting a different result is the definition of insanity
