RE: Noam Chomsky: "The general population doesn’t know what’s happening, and it doesn’t even know that it doesn’t know..!!"

in #news7 years ago

And that's where we differ. I don't see any position as "winning" or "losing" in regards to each other. It is a discussion that happens, and when one person gets either tired or frustrated (which in this case I became frustrated with Baah's incessant bringing up of unnecessary drama). Again, there is not going to be any impasse. He's either a stonch right libertarian or an an-cap, and those are positions that I disagree with.
Reading into anything other than that is a stretch.

Sort:  

Being correct is in this instance, is it's own reward. If you are more interested in masturbatory marathons of verbally flogging nonsense than achieving possession of understanding, then, mission accomplished. You seem to think there is no object to the search, and no such thing as facts. Being tired or frustrated has no bearing on the reason, or lack thereof, in the argument. Becoming bored with defending the claims you've made does not render your argument correct. If I have gathered anything from my interactions with @baah, I can say that @baah is neither a STAUNCH right libertarian or an an-cap. This misapprehension further demonstrates a need of learning what words mean. It is clear that there is no desire on your part to gain accurate communication, but only to see how carefully you can misunderstand an argument with which you disagree.

You're reading way into this.
Being tired or frustrated is reason enough to be done with something that has no baring on literally anything else, as it was just a discussion. Again, reading into this as anything other than two opposing positions is a massive stretch.

And whatever baah is or isn't has become more so irrelevant to me now, I realize that. Whatever label it is, we're going to disagree regardless.

Facts are not opinions.

Bearing is spelled BEARING.

Stretch does not have mass.

If the label is 'correct' it would be unwise to disagree with the argument. I find no obvious flaws in @baah 's arguments. In your arguments I find inability to use and understand basic words.

It's 2 a.m. I'm inclined to make a few writing mistakes, get over it.

I see what you're doing, and I'm not having any part in it. Good day.

It is clear that you do not see what I am doing, or you would be addressing the arguments rather than trying to change the definitions of words. As far as having no part in playing semantic games, you started it. I'd say that is a rather critical part.

If you do not like defending indefensible claims, the best thing is to stop making them.

Again, Good day.

Is this a last word contest? Remember, words have meanings.
