      Who’s angry? This is more akin to assertively disciplining a child who tries to lie.

          Are you ever going to raise how Kennedy led us to nuclear annihilation? Am I living in a fallout shelter right now? lol. Where were you ever going with raising the CMC?

          You’ve dodged all substance, knowing you were outclassed.

          I said like a child. Big difference, by the way.

              These responses are so predictable I can pre-write my reply. You’ve got absolutely nothing to support your original claim, and continue to dodge all substance. This discussion is over.

              Outclassed.

            Dude just stop, this is embarrassing. You brought up Trump out of nowhere and think a straw man is outclassing them? I’m cringing so hard right now

              Sorry raising Trump seems to scare you or something? Perfectly relevant to compare and contrast two presidents in their approach to resolving a crisis, but I suspect that’s a bit beyond your capacity for critical-thinking. Memes and cringe is more your speed, I take it? Are you still in high school?

                It’s not relevant to compare and contrast presidents no one’s defending. See, that’s the straw man. I’m not a high schooler but I’m pretty sure one could figure that out

                  • Dude makes bullshit claim that Kennedy was inching us toward nuclear war.
                  • I raise literal historical evidence detailing that wasn’t the case.
                  • Other user deflects.
                  • To drive the point home, I raise a modern incompetent President to highlight what’s called a contrast to paint a picture as to how an incompetent president might actually inch us toward nuclear war in such a predicament (shouldn’t take much imagination).
                  • You then seem to get triggered — almost obsessed — with my raising of Trump that it seems to escape you that the other user entirely dodged the argument.

                  So if you’re not a high schooler, then are you either bullshitting me, or are you stoned out of your mind right now? Perhaps drinking?

                    to highlight what’s called a contrast

                    Contact between the topic and a strawman no one brought up. That’s literally not what anyone was talking about. I don’t know shit about what would have happened if Kennedy didn’t die but you’re so bad at making your point I’m inclined to believe the other guy. Do you know what ad hominem fallacies are? They’re kinda like strawman fallacies. I’m fascinated by you though

      You know there’s an Unwritten rule of the internet, the first person to accuse the other person of being angry is the one who’s really angry.
