I mean, you could press the point home if you cited the specific page(s) relevent to the discussion
hard to do that when your statement is "x is bad" and there's a million points
most of the time people won't have their mind changed by data, no matter how good the data is.
plus in my defence usually these discussions happen with NEETs who have nothing but free time
so they have 0 excuse not to read it
Well then that just looks like you're trying to scare cunts off with massive amounts of reading material
oh no! scary reading material that will educate! the horror!
if you have a point, make the point, literally no one, good faith or bad, is going to impromptu read a short novel's worth of shit for an internet argument
then they're not actually looking to be educated on the subject
probably educated on their own time...? again, impromptu reading assignments are unnattractive
unless they just have literally nothing better to do with their day, in which case why the fuck are you debating children?
how many people do you know that actually take time to educate themselves? most people will read some trashy "journalistic" article and act as if they're well read on the subject
there's loads of jobless guys nowadays
i think california was something like only 43% of men were working
you could show the sort of people we are talking about a single graph that gives all the data truthfully and they still wouldn't change their mind, the large amount of reading is just an excuse.
well first, lets have healthy skepticism on what california thinks is a man
well if you want to run around yelling and acting well informed about a subject then you probably should/want to be educated and actually well informed on the subject you are pretending to be a supporter for
secondly, you're still not addressing the fact few people in the middle of a pissant internet bitching match are going to stop and take the time to consume an entire thesis on whatever fucking subject right then and there
it wasn't a pissing match, it was a discussion
just because 1 person throws a fit because "omg! a different opinion!" doesn't make the entire thing a pissing contest
I'm not arguing whether they're clearly not up for the discussion in the first place, just that you're presenting an unreasonable and unnatractive activity in the middle of the discussion
it depends on the impact of the subject, if it is a superficial topic then sure it can be some overly simplified explanation
but if it's something that has a lot of repercussions to it then it should be met with more material that explores its many facets
then again if I'm presented some enormous organ of text, I employ CTRL+F and look for what was actually relevent to the topic at hand
the more complex the subject/system the more reading and information you need
besides, the reading wasn't me telling them to immediately read it and try to respond to the material. The material was simply given as sources for reference to what I was saying and secondly as a source for them to learn
Apparently basically everyone can get out of jail instantly now
Yay
Even bail-jumping is not considered an offense lol
Bail Reform is the Wrong direction and it’s literally going to get people killed
If Darquan gets arrested for beating the shit out of Shaunte’equisha, he gets let back out because he can’t afford bail then he goes and finishes the job
... the fuck is "slugging?"
is that a typo?
If what's happening to NY and SF doesn't make skeptics warm up to the possibility of a conspiracy regarding globalism and socialism, I don't know what will.
Slugging is a term for punching someone
Very hard
Or hitting something really hard
the propaganda and multi-culturalism is concentrated in the big cities. thats why its radiating out from them. Has to do with universities too. Universities are typically in big cities
Or getting in a fight to settle a Dispute
I prefer donnybrook for that
