PROTIP: Opposition to interventionism in the Middle East does not have to equate to support for the currently extant states therein.

    so how about moving on to where we disagree

    “How about we stop talking about the issue at hand and change the subject?”

    I mean, if you want to end the conversation here, that’s fine, I understand it’s embarrassing to be called out on an entire chain of whataboutisms in defense of a theocracy’s campaign of rape and murder against protesters, just don’t pretend like it’s a natural extension of the conversation, lol.

      I’ve encountered this one before. Their only purpose in life is to find a counter argument, and mock you for something. It is impossible to fight them because they aren’t trying to win or lose, just wear you down. They have no actual opinions on anything. And most likely, they feel like a total loser in real life.

      You have such a fascinating approach to argument, it’s like creative writing where you just make shit up and refuse to address anything directly lmao
