    No shit you’re not trying to convince anyone to change their views. You’re engaging in a vapid self indulgent tantrum.

    My main offense is taken by you pretending you’re holding out on us.

    You need to shut the fuck up. Taking up all this oxygen in the room just to declare how smart you are and fuck everyone who isn’t you? And you segue into this from saying how mature you are??

    Jesus Christ shut the fuck up. Make good on your threat to leave this kind of discussion to other people because you are an active detriment.

    Hey look at me I have aged but I have not grown. My tears are precious. My anger is a guiding light. To what? Silence. Just listen to me dammit.

      Holding out on you? Mature? Where the fuck did I say I was mature? I said I’ve been doing this shit a long time but I never used the word mature. What the fuck are you babbling about? I’m saying experienced, that’s not the same as maturity. Maturity is more of a social construct implying a wise and pro-social state.

      Here’s the thing: Everytime I get into discussions with you fucking people (or watching discussions play out between you and other people on here) trying to pry out your actual stances are, you get pissy because you know they’re unhinged views and no one sane takes them seriously when they’re laid out on the table. Or you do what you are doing now: hyperfixate on the character of who you are arguing with, in this case me. I never claimed to have good character, I’ll embrace the fact that I’ve become a misanthrope because its true. I don’t give a fuck that you think I’m a bad person, we will never fucking meet. You believe bad people are good and good people are bad anyway so I don’t give a fuck about your tainted evaluation of my character. It doesn’t fucking matter to either of us I don’t know why you pretend. Well, I mean I do: cognitive dissonance and maybe propaganda purposes.

      Notice how I more or stated the person’s views are delusional after insisting they come out with it though. I called them a coward because they obfuscated their beliefs to get them to just fucking come out with it. After they disclosed what they actually thought, I realized that I was basically potentially engaging with a flat earther equivalent set of arguments and told them I hated them for the consequences of their rhetoric.

      What else needs to be said? That you guys decide to engage with me after implies that you think there is something to be gained in doing so. IDK why you don’t just block me if that isn’t the case.

      Telling me to go away wont work. My job has too many boring moments and I got to fill that shit with something.
