the left seems to think that the right being bad means that they dont have to be better. as if being better than the worst is good enough. as if all you have to do is be a bucket of turds among a bunch of buckets of diarrhea.

its not good enough. they are not beyond reproach but they use this stupid "bOtH SiDeS" shit to act like they can do no wrong and its a fucking joke.

The left vs right bullshit is absolutely by design so we don't band together against the true enemy of the country, the .01%. The 1% isn't as big of an issue as AOC and sanders would lead us to believe. Its the handful of people holding onto so much wealth that their power supersedes literally any government entity. But let's argue over cancel culture and the fucking pittance that was the stimulus package.

Because shouting both sides is pretty much the only argument that Republicans have. You don't even have to go further than this topic to see that. When they do have something concrete to whine about, it's usually dumb shit like the Potato Head rebranding. If you want to use the both sides argument (like you did in your first post in this topic), you should have an example of something the Democrats are doing that's at least as bad as the Republicans' massive voter suppression efforts across the country.

I'm not a Republican or a Democrat. I'm looking at you from the outside and telling you: both sides are shit, and them being worse doesnt mean it's cool for you to be less bad. Stop trying to excuse your shit behavior with their shittier behavior.

I'm still going to point out that I feel the Republicans will dick you far more. I'm allowed to think that while still being disgusted by the Democrats.

So long as you're not throwing that "bOtH SiDeS" bullshit at every criticism of your party I agree. You can recognize one is worse than the other while still recognizing that both are shit.

Stop defending a nonsense conspiracy theorist.

If you think those specific beliefs are wrong that doesn't mean everything else he believes is also wrong. Would you bring this up if he stated that 2+2 = 4, or that the ocean has water in it?

Ideas are ideas regardless of where they come from. Attacking the person for having the idea isn't arguing the point at all.

Neither of those posters has ever had a unique thought. They just believe what they are told to believe without question.

ill keep this simple, some ideas are good and some are bad, but multiple bad ideas shouldnt be ignored, ok?

sunny is a fountain of misinformation and a narcissist who believes every event in the world is about him. so if you want to piss in the wind while dying on this hill, have fun, ok?

The way you confront bad ideas is by explaining why they're bad, not by attacking the person espousing said ideas. By attacking the person you're just entrenching the person's beliefs rather than making any attempt to reason with them.

The entire point is that who or what the person is makes no difference on the validity of their ideas. It doesn't matter if he's a narcissist, or a serial killer, or the patron saint of the criminally insane, or a twelve foot inflatable elephant plush toy.

Question of character are really only relevant when it pertains to the truth when it comes to personal testimony.

Someone being a narcissist actually does change the validity of their ideas, as if their ideas are ever called in to question they can never be convinced that they are wrong.

Whether or not someone can be convinced they are wrong or not has no bearing on whether the idea itself is bad.

If you have the most narcissistic liar in the world and they say "we shouldn't nuke orphanages" is that idea inherently bad because of who said it?

The internet has breached countless barriers in terms of distance and language and socioeconomic factors, without which we'd probably never communicate with anybody on here. I find it perplexing that in the modern world with the easiest means of communication never before seen in history that you would willfully choose to close your mind to ideas simply because you don't like the person who speaks them. I don't know anything about any of you, and it doesn't matter for the purposes of discussing things.

You don't have to like someone to talk to them. You don't have to agree or disagree with someone to engage with them. There's a huge variety of people out there and if you only talk to people you agree with you're just limiting your understanding of the world.

I don't think so. That guy is making some solid points. I think it's good practice to not confine yourself to an echo chamber. Consistently challenging your own ideas and values by engaging with people who oppose or disagree will either help you to reassess to a more clear viewpoint or else will strengthen your understanding of what you hold to be true. I also think it's good practice to "know thy enemy" so to speak.

There's really nothing I can say to make you believe I'm not a specific person, but for the sake of science, which of these examples seems more likely to you:

1) There is more than one person on the planet who may not agree with your position, or
2) Everyone who disagrees with you is just one guy with unlimited accounts, including one that has been active since 2005

Don't forget that these are the same people who tell lies about other users in unison, like a weird cult.

The current year is 2021.
The Declaration of Independence of the United States was ratified on July 4, 1776
Humans require oxygen in order to live.
Pythagoras's theorum states that given a right triangle, the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides.

By your logic, if I'm Sunny, these statements cannot also be true, so which is it?

Hospy posted...

The current year is 2021.

*Anno Domini - Only by the current calendar we follow, which is, granted, the common and widely accepted one, to the point where it is reused by Common Era.

Hospy posted...

The Declaration of Independence of the United States was ratified on July 4, 1776

Ratify - sign or give formal consent to (a treaty, contract, or agreement), making it officially valid.

Not everyone signed the document on the 4th of July. Actually, the document was started on the 2nd a revised until the 4th, and then only signed a month later. The date of July 4th is the time we celebrate the document, which wasn't seen as valid by the very royalty that colonists had been fighting against so much as some part insult and some part provocation of an empire-wide eyeroll.

Hospy posted...

This is an inaccurate oversimplification. We need oxygen, yes, but we need the other things in the air as well; that just marks the breathing.

Well, the Pythagorean Theorem certainly says this, yes.

I fear I am missing a premise here. Where is the premise from Ziggi/Clark that nothing you/Sunny say(s) cannot be true? Logic requires stringing together premises in order to reach a conclusion, after all.

My initial entry in this entirely unfortunate affair starts on page 5, but the condensed version is that I said ideas should be judged based on their own merits, not on the person who speaks them. Attacking the speaker, regardless of who or what they are, is not a reflection on the validity of the idea itself.

The responses I have received in turn are either that I shouldn't be defending this mystical sunny person, or that I am in fact, the sunny.

Taking the argument backwards, if I am sunny as they claim, any ideas that I present are not valid because I am a suspect individual. But if I present a statement generally known to be true, then that idea stands for itself regardless if I am the nefarious sunny, which is my initial point.
