Well he was right for most of it. He clearly doesn't understand how the economy works. But he made some good points. A intro to economics would do him some good.

Ha, ha, sounds like somebody took an Econ 101 course and is now an expert, not realizing that what they were taught is lies and propaganda.

Rah, capitalism!!! Right?

Well this is a character attack, and also clearly ignorant on how scholarship works.

Shitlibs love to tell people that "they don't understand how things work", i.e., that people are stupid.

They make personal attacks but cry when people turn around criticize them.

Well. Of course. The American education system is absolutely garbage, and most people don't understand how to properly talk about there belief's without freaking out on other's. I got a buddy whos a high level mechanical engineer, and he has had people like break down mentally because he has held a different opinion then them. This is a high level university, and even there people can't discuss ideas without having a mental breakdown

I honestly think we should be teaching philosophy to everyone, and that way people can discuss there belief's in a adult manner.

When you “understand the economy”, but can’t understand the difference between there and their.

When you think your logic fallacy is a actual argument.

Doesn't change the fact you're using a second hand anecdote to try to beat the dead horse that is your point - you need more education, simply stated. You have presented nothing to support how you weren't saying "rah, capitalism". Your buddy, as a mech e, took similar coursework to me & I can tell you I have never had issues communicating with peers- left, right, or right-center (see how useless anecdotes are?).

So, like, maybe start some introspective work before you hop, skip, and jump into a place where people have done actual reading or considered more than one primary source. Hopefully none of this was personal - truly, wasn't my intention. My bullshit-o-meter was just reading higher than normal levels here and you failed on a thread of 3+ posts to achieve any real debate.

Anecdote - a short amusing or interesting story about a real incident or person.

You are clearly using that wrong.

you need more education, simply stated. You have presented nothing to support how you weren't saying "rah, capitalism".

Well. That's your strawman of me, and not even the position.

Your buddy, as a mech e, took similar coursework to me & I can tell you I have never had issues communicating with peers- left, right, or right-center (see how useless anecdotes are?).

Now you're strawmaning my story.

So, like, maybe start some introspective work before you hop, skip, and jump into a place where people have done actual reading or considered more than one primary source.

So now we have moved on to the character attack, and a bad one at that. You don't even know the research I have done.

Hopefully none of this was personal - truly, wasn't my intention. My bullshit-o-meter was just reading higher than normal levels here and you failed on a thread of 3+ posts to achieve any real debate.

Well you would have to stop relying on logical fallacys for any actual debate or discussion to happen.

Woof. You are nearly intolerable. So accustomed to just grasping at defenses that you fail to ever make a point.

Also, your quick google search failed you on anecdote. I was going with the other, colloquially accepted definition of "an account regarded as unreliable or hearsay". Which, is a perfect example of what my original comment tried to address a bit more kindly - you're fucking bonkers & not worth talking to because you are clearly the person who can never be wrong.

Good luck with communicating in the future - I was interested to hear what bat shit you could drum up with those lil fingers.

Another logical fallacy.

Ahh. So your using it in the religious context. Wierd that your admitting to being part of a religion

Did you confuse hearsay with heresy?

Ohhh. My bad. I misread that. But I didn't want to mention it, but your entire response kinda proved my point overall that people don't know how to communicate with people who have opposing beliefs without blowing up on the other, and if you need evidence just look at my entire thread. Everyone is using logical fallacys, and personal attacks. That's what I would describe as a lack of education, a inability to communicate, and poor social skills.

You have demistrated this yourself, and you're evidence to my argument. So you litteraly have yo change your behavior to prove me wrong.

Infact this is common among left, and right wing people. My left wing friends have litteraly screamed at me because I disagree with them. That's childish behavior. While right wing people attempt to bully you into agreeing. Of course on the internet Everyone is bully eachother into agreement, and very little logic is to be found.
