Many people share this view

2019-10-20 23:29:19 UTC  

I completely disagree with that

2019-10-20 23:30:03 UTC  

How is it not? You are willfully choosing to not engage or even just listen to someone's views. It only harms you

2019-10-20 23:30:46 UTC  

yeah, you could learn something from him if you weren't hung up on one thing he said. look how long this chat has been a back and forth about one stupid line

2019-10-20 23:30:47 UTC  

it's petty

2019-10-20 23:30:56 UTC  

It is better to have the option than it is to completely excommunicate them like some high school teen girl drama

2019-10-20 23:32:26 UTC  

Goddamn 30mins? Woah. Time sure flies. Except when learning. Because fuck learning

2019-10-20 23:33:45 UTC  

Yeah right

2019-10-20 23:33:49 UTC  

I learn so much from a sophist

2019-10-20 23:34:03 UTC  

I think you guys really need to look up what that term means

2019-10-20 23:34:13 UTC  

Or you need to deal with an actual sophist for once

2019-10-20 23:34:17 UTC  

Then you'll know what's up

2019-10-20 23:34:43 UTC  

It's like trying to instill empathy into a psychopath

2019-10-20 23:34:46 UTC  

It's a useless endeavor

2019-10-20 23:35:32 UTC  

And from a single line you know this to be true?

2019-10-20 23:35:38 UTC  

No, the whole convseration

2019-10-20 23:35:40 UTC  

Have you read it?

2019-10-20 23:35:55 UTC  

Not personally, not yet

2019-10-20 23:36:03 UTC  

Then read it

2019-10-20 23:36:07 UTC  

Maybe you learn something about sophistry

2019-10-20 23:43:39 UTC  

He never did that the HoL exists to make things less democratic. But that as a consequence, it doesn't have as much democracy as it could be

2019-10-20 23:56:07 UTC  

Holy shit

2019-10-20 23:56:10 UTC  

What mental gymnastics

2019-10-20 23:56:29 UTC  

When you have the whole context in front of you, how do you come to that conclusion

2019-10-20 23:56:29 UTC  

The EU is proof that you can always vote for tyranny, but you have shoot your way out of it.

2019-10-20 23:57:24 UTC  

Seriously, as an American I ask, when will you guys do what we did in 1776?

2019-10-20 23:59:25 UTC  

"HoL makes things less democratic, which doesn't mean it's meant to make things less democratic"
Bullshit, it's *meant* to make things less democratic, this is indisputable, because it's inherently less democratic and they have a conscious choice of elimininating it and installing something in place that increases democracy. They make a *conscious choice,* these politicians are not *stupid,* and they know exactly what they're doing.

2019-10-20 23:59:58 UTC  

This is a classic example of sophism

2019-10-21 00:00:07 UTC  

Politicians do the exact same thing

2019-10-21 00:00:22 UTC  

Just throw sand in people's eyes until they start bleeding

2019-10-21 00:05:32 UTC  
2019-10-21 00:07:26 UTC  

No.

2019-10-21 00:07:31 UTC  

😛

2019-10-21 00:08:57 UTC  

Now what?

2019-10-21 00:20:27 UTC  

is it time for the patriots to go onto the streets

2019-10-21 00:28:27 UTC  

At some point, you may have too.

2019-10-21 09:20:11 UTC  

Nice article on the state of our media

2019-10-21 09:20:30 UTC  

Didn’t quite realise how dumb it was that there was almost no reporting on the actual detail of the deal

2019-10-21 09:20:38 UTC  

Just on its chances of passing or not

2019-10-21 09:23:30 UTC  

Suspicious. To be fair, if they did tell the details, nobody would want it. Again <:smugon:512048583806025739>
