It's amazing that HS and Uni students need to sign a waiver to see something we watched day of

2019-09-11 18:16:00 UTC  

You're all 👶

2019-09-11 18:16:16 UTC  

Yeah apparently students are given a trigger warning and have to give consent to see 9/11 footage now

2019-09-11 18:18:40 UTC  

🤔 🤔

2019-09-11 18:20:01 UTC  

Apparently not. They're less capable than I was when I was ~10

2019-09-11 18:22:15 UTC  

Yeah. “Some people did something”

FAIR TAX.

tax the rich to pay for the poor's addictions.

2019-09-11 18:40:15 UTC  

it's fair. it's just common sense.

2019-09-11 20:15:47 UTC

2019-09-11 20:15:57 UTC

2019-09-11 21:05:41 UTC  

In the beginning there were the dinosaurs, but they all got to big and fat and died...

2019-09-11 21:07:20 UTC  

Just a reminder to call out bullshit when you see it

2019-09-11 21:10:47 UTC  

That's ya boi, (me)

Lel

2019-09-11 21:11:37 UTC  

So I dont think you're going to make headway like that but it is entertaining

2019-09-11 21:12:53 UTC  

I just got sick of this dude always sneakily making me look like a monster

2019-09-11 21:14:36 UTC  

Sure, but I think if you really want to start taking the big swings you've got to break it down on a fundamental level, and use arguments that use key elements of your opponent's worldview

2019-09-11 21:15:01 UTC  

So I've given up on making headway with him but I think it's good to show everyone else in the channel how he's dishonestly manipulating the conversation

2019-09-11 21:15:15 UTC  

Oh every time I try that he changes the subject

2019-09-11 21:15:19 UTC  

For instance "why should medical coverage be applied to non citizens at the expense of the poor we have in this country?"

2019-09-11 21:15:20 UTC  

well FIRST you have to know that this other person's mind can even be changed, if not dont bother

2019-09-11 21:15:23 UTC  

You just lock it down

2019-09-11 21:15:29 UTC  

You come back to it

2019-09-11 21:15:48 UTC  

They will never struggle harder than when their leg is in the trap :P

2019-09-11 21:15:49 UTC  

Yeah I've been trying. As soon as I make a good point against him he just throws another topic in there

2019-09-11 21:16:23 UTC  

red herring

2019-09-11 21:16:38 UTC  

Yeah exactly

2019-09-11 21:16:38 UTC  

Yeah, just calmly say that you can address that after, and insist that the conversation can't continue unless you're willing to address issues before moving onto new ones

2019-09-11 21:17:07 UTC  

Now, that issue might tie into other issues, so you have to have some leeway for that

2019-09-11 21:17:23 UTC  

But you can tie em into the same argument if they are

2019-09-11 21:17:50 UTC  

I still think it's good to bring up his dishonest tactic though. Saying something like "This will never be productive if you're going to continue to manipulate things like this"

2019-09-11 21:18:07 UTC  

Yes

2019-09-11 21:18:26 UTC  

But word it in a way that makes him admit his dishonesty rather than being accusatory
