Read the comment chain again? After buddy's initial response I just plainly outlined my position. I wasn't like "you idiot, how could you possibly misunstand my one-word comment" because that would be insane and unfair.

After my explanation, he completely ignored literally everything I had said and at that point it became obvious they were arguing with a strawman.

Unless you can help me connect the dots between "I support public transit, I want north america to have what Europe has" and their bizarre assertion that somehow I'm arguing against it, then I don't know how anyone could say that their response was even the slightest bit related to what I'd written.
