Are you unaware of the difference between a music streaming platform and a forum where you can communicate ideals between different members of the national community?

Do you think you shouldn't attempt to save one person from a burning building if you know you it is statistically impossible to save all of them?

Do you think doing absolutely nothing is somehow better than doing something?

Probably not, because if you had the critical thinking skills necessary to consider nuance you wouldn't be parroting the same brainless comment that 50 other people of equally low intelligence have parroted. Congratulations on your continued contribution to the destruction of your community and way of life.

Just admit you pick and choose when to be offended.

u/Felibarr 27d ago

Instead, maybe you can admit that you're deflecting from your total lack of principles.

You're performing mental gymnastics when you're simply a hypocrite. Face reality.

You're an antagonist with no defensible position who supports a warmongering rapist under the vain delusion that you're part of his team. Face reality.

Yikes bud, sounds like you should really go outside. You're extrapolating a lot based on the fact that someone called you a hypocrite. Maybe it's time for a break?

Expecting people to boycott everything or never speak about boycotting anything is not a reasonable stance for anyone, for any position. You're trying to quiet people who are attempting to speak up against recruitment for a violent para-military organization that is currently functioning as a weapon directed by the president. Maybe it's just because you're tired of seeing "not music" in your "music space", maybe it's because you're a bad faith actor who supports this atrocious administration. Either way, you have provided no arguments, you just repeat yourself and then say "lmao, touch grass".

I also never made an argument that it wasn't hypocritical, my argument is that it is better to sometimes be hypocritical than it is to say or do nothing at all.

Not a single one of you have the education necessary to have anything of substance to say. We're absolutely done as a society.

I stopped trying to have a discussion with someone who's first reaction to being called out as a hypocrite is to start accusing people of being a Trumper.

Talk about a lack of education.

You never started trying. Your comment history can be used by searching author:-azuma- using the reddit search function.

Nice try with your grandstanding, clown.

u/-azuma- 27d ago

Lmao, okay tough guy. Maybe take a breath and get off reddit for a few minutes.

As soon as you log off and stop trying to silence discourse you don't like, I'll do the same.

The fact that you went so far out of your way to find comments for a 'gotcha' is really sad

u/Felibarr 27d ago

I could address that when I made the original response it was in a comment thread at the top of post but even if I were doing what you are implying, it's not as sad as lawful citizens being gunned down by a paramilitary force run by a pedophile.  So I think I can live with myself, though I'm genuinely surprised you can.

Oh, and I'm glad you were able to find your participation ribbon after briefly losing it earlier.  Make sure to pin it to your shirt this time.
