    Reading comprehension. Learn it. You’ve read a basic statement and put a meaning to it so you can fight someone on the internet. Never said anything about how equal the atrocities were.

      Is it even possible for you to reply without coming across as smug and condescending? smuglord

      Never said anything about how equal the atrocities were.

      Of course you didn’t. You used the wormy Reddit plausible-deniability format where you imply your position without actually committing to it.

          It’s almost like every government commits atrocities at some point or another.

          I didn’t imply shit, but you do you.

          If you supposedly implied nothing in that first line, what was the point of that empty and unprovably vague first statement to begin with? Since you’re euphoric and enlightened by your own intelligence, show some spine and tell us.

            Now you’re dictating how I feel? Jesus. I’m not going to say something I don’t mean/beleave because you want me to.

              “I didn’t imply shit” about how you feel. smuglord

              I’m not going to say something I don’t mean/beleave because you want me to.

              So you say that people fail at reading comprehension if they don’t derive the meaning you desire them to, and you won’t say what that meaning is. morshupls

                How dare you imply meaning in my statements tankie smuglord

                They really never want to take an actual position. They always retreat to “that’s not what i said!” I don’t understand that, no matter how many times i see it.

                  It takes it to a whole new level that “you don’t understand” and “you are illiterate” were said alongside “no, I will NOT state what you were supposed to read out of the vague statement.” smuglord

      Can you please tone down the unnecessary aggression? I understand politics can be sensitive but we prefer to keep this place civil.
