Also your comment on slavery is offensive

So you know your argument works perfectly for slavery, can see how it applies and are embarrassed enough being called out on it to be offended, but not to rethink yourself? That response is actually why I included it: easy way to tell you're not to be taken seriously

Oh, please. Get off your intellectual high horse. Your ability to string coherent words together doesn’t mean you actually know anything. All you’ve done is throw out a false equivalency and some hyperbole. I present arguments, and you respond with pseudo-intellectual gibberish. The people who take you seriously are the same ones who fart into wine glasses, idiots. I’m so tired of you hipster fucks on Lemmy. You talk about things you don’t understand and convince yourselves you’re enlightened. You’re just short-sighted trash wrapped in $100 words and YouTube rhetoric.

No, I pointed out that your main argument in your original comment was terrible as it was an equally valid defense for slavery, figuring that if you got butthurt at being called out on it that you weren't worth engaging mentally with, as anyone of any decency would see that and go "oh fuck dude maybe I should rethink at least that part of my stance", it's literally what I said in my comment ffs

you respond with pseudo-intellectual gibberish

My point, non-intellectual as it may be (like basically everything I do), wasn't gibberish to anyone with basic reading comprehension
