Cause of Mass Shootings Revealed:

UrGod, what are you doing? CNN hasn’t been mentioned in this thread, much less cited.

It’s a bit ironic to use a tribal non-sequitur to lay allegations of “spin”.

He’s failing to respond to the posts and attempting to derail a thread.

Not at all, I am making a point about intellectual dishonesty. I am entirely unsurprised that the point went over all of your heads.

Nothing funnier than watching an idiot pretend to be the smart guy in the room.

Go ahead and make an actual argument and we will see who the idiot is.

I suppose that is why you never make any… actual arguments.

Like the one you just responded to with a picture of a washing machine?

Post a meme to win an argument, Smears.

You can’t post arguments on the basis of pointing to obvious differences between figurative and literal interpretations.
All that’s achieved in that case is a regression to duality, of whose basis is usually grounded in emotionalism.

And emotionalism takes away from effective communication.

Like I said earlier in this thread, a point to which he’s yet to respond…I think he’s too emotional to have an actual debate. He’s reasoning from his feelings instead of deriving his feelings from reason. I think I’ve said that a handful of times to him and he just keeps ignoring it. He’s asking me for an argument when I must have typed 1000 words and I gave a relatively thorough analysis of the issue of gun control. He ignored that and posted a picture of a washing machine and said something about CNN.

He’s just young, not completely mature, not completely educated and not completely emotionally stable. He’s apparently deeply insecure and still in that stage where “winning”, as in “beating someone in an argument” is more important than having a full understanding of a given issue. You can always spot these guys because they cling like crazy to one overarching ideal and everything that they express can be linked back to just that ideal. They’re not reasoning, analyzing, understanding, synthesizing information and coming to valid conclusions about reality. Instead, they’re trying to use rhetorical force, via a sequence of obvious fallacies to insist that the world is the way that they want it to be.

Wouldn’t it be better to understand how things actually are?

Here’s a pretty good one.

That’s what you call “reasoning, analyzing, understanding, synthesizing information and coming to valid conclusions about reality”? And totally not emotional whatsoever I bet.

:laughing:

I see the irony is lost on you.

I made a very similar analysis of him on another thread independently.

It’s interesting how you point out that he’s reasoning from his feelings instead of deriving his feelings from reason - this is exactly what he accuses “the left” of doing, against whom he has set himself. Another thing he assumes is that those he is against just make up stuff in line with their emotions and without reason - which of course is also exactly what he does. The “projection” is obvious to outside observers. I just wrote a rant on another thread about short attention spans and instant gratification, which is exactly in line with your observation about him simply wanting to “win” rather than grow. He encapsulates a caricatured version of all the fallacies that you would expect from somebody who knows nothing but suffers from the Dunning-Kruger effect, and in line with that, he holds this conviction that he is particularly superior. I think the feeling of understanding how things actually are is more valuable to him than actually understanding how things actually are.

Start at the beginning of the thread. It’s only 2 pages. When you’re caught up, get back to me.

You mistake having a conscience for “sensationalism”.
Anyway, me and my sensationalist buddies won the battle, thank god.
You and your buddies can take over the stage again and yell politically correct murder, it wont be of any consequence. Hillary is running for Facebook.

Maybe The Rock will run.

If you’re talking about the election, and I am no supporter of Hillary, then yes you and your conscientious buddies got the branding that you needed for the same tyranny that we’d have got either way.

Nicely and concisely put.

Huh?
Isis is defeated, the Korean War is resolving, Russia is no longer on the verge of starting WWIII, Israel is allowed its own capital, European countries are being liberated from Neocon yoke -
Its a pity so many Americans have no clue that they have the first human world leader ever. I mean that. I can still cry in gratitude. Trump is more benevolent for the world than Jesus.

Don’t watch so much Jimmy Kimmel.

Primarily thanks to Russia and the Syrian government. Russia was the first nation to real go for them.

Here Trumps hazardous move may well have done some good.

It’s not Russia that is setting up weapon systems, chemical weapons factories, anti-ballistic missiles all in close proximity to the US. Nor has Russia been destabilizing countries near Russia to set up puppet governments and get control of resources there. And Trumps highly pro-Israel, let’s find a way to have a war with Iran team - just look at their histories and goals, is also very destabilizing.

It had that before.

Not hardly. I’m over here, privitization, centralization of power, consolidation of media, more ‘free market’ solutions, the whole neo-con agenda is just moving on just as it did in the US and Britain, only later. Parties that resist neocon economic policies are weakening every day. And even if Britain manages to actually Brexit -the jury is still out - they will be under corporate thumb.

The first human world leader is then a sociopath. I wouldn’t let a guy with those eyes near my family.

Isis is Obonko/Clonts creation. Trump allowed them to be destroyed.
He reversed the most Satanic US policies in history.

Iran is a genocidal state sacrificing more Arabs (about which they don’t care) than anyone else. Tens of millions by now, the past 100 years.
Thank the gods that Trump shredded that deal with them. In any case because Clont is no longer allowed to put mini nukes all around the Russian border, Russia has backed down from its last-resort scenario, which it was ready to employ in 2015/'16 after the failed Nato coup in Moscow in '14.

I don’t know if you are an ideological antisemite, but otherwise I wouldn’t know what is wrong about being pro-Israel. The Jews have a tiny sliver of land for which they fought and suffered three millennia. For some, quite a lot of people actually, this is too much already. They should have nothing. I don’t think so.

Im talking about the Embassy move. Breaking the hypocrisy of subhuman regimes judging what another nations capital should be on account of their “morals”. An end to a great nausea. Just one of the bits of sanity Trump recovered for humanity.

Britain is already islamic. But Britain was never part of Europe, it was always trying to destroy us.
For the rest, Trumps win has emboldened all the nationalist and sane parties. It will still be a long struggle, but we stand to win it now. Not necessarily peacefully, but thats okay.

Interesting, a sociopath who saved more people from hell than any other human in history.
