I like how you talk about the strength of my arguement when the strength of yours is entirely based on your 'bullshit detector' as you call it. Really funny actually. Got anything to say why someone who researches military conflict for fun can't recognize official SS symbols? Or how about him knowing and using the official name the SS gave it?
I'm actually exhausted from all these stupid arguments and going to detach from them now. I think you call it touching grass .
Honestly that's more than fair, I know we don't agree on some stuff but have a solid one.
Whoa whoa whoa, wait a second. Both of you get back in here and have an internet fight. Don't even think of rationally resolving this trite debate without nine or ten back and forth fallacy exchanges.
I'm just so tired of arguing with people about the past. Nothing can change it, they don't have to trust him, but I wish they would just listen to what he has to say now, and allow themselves the understanding that people do actually change.
I'm going to his town hall Monday, I'm not going to engage with the Internet about it again until after that. I really hope some of the folks here make the effort to come ask him these hard questions to his face, in person. And I am happy to forward any {politely worded} questions to him then, if I get a chance beyond my own questions.
Formatting edit or two, dunno how to escape the italics and use a *
Nope, funny brackets it is.
Thanks man, you too.
