The Gaming Den

I mean I didn't pearl clutch. I literally said it doesn't matter that you have this delusion and that you keep from adding me into your fetish posting. I asked you specific straightforward questions you haven't answered. The problem with you and PS is that you can't let shit go. I mean the Bob/Steve...

That is crazy that it works like that currently at all.

What are hotels trying to do to the ACA? Also why hotels?

The irony that you're accusing me of bad faith interpretations after that last screed is not lost upon me.

That's one hell of a misinterpretation of my position and reasoning. I guess in your head parental relationships are sexual ones. Please don't push your fetishes on me though. What I actually am disgusted by with that framing is unironically outlined more by PS referencing fanatics. Lots of fascists...

You can stop defending that stupid point. Sashi has already abandoned it.

I square that easily. I, personally, want people, all people, not to be poor. I've been poor all my life and it is not fun. I genuinely hate that we have a system that produces these outcomes. I also have no designs about being personally wealthy. I just don't want to be poor anymore. So for me, I t...

Prime example of why not to let someone bust use whatever words they want. I say I'm not answering questions about parenting when taking about government. Oh but Sashi also didn't mean that government is daddy. It just do happens they then they don't want to ask a question about government but about...

The only reason I'm even still talking about that is that PS brought it up. I know you don't have PS blocked. What I addressed to you, Sashi, were some very specific questions which I note you did not answer any of.

If I tell a person quite clearly I reject that framing and they continue to insist on using it I am not going to change 'my' view on what they are saying just so they can have some special definition that suits them. If they insist on pushing it I will continue rejecting it.

I've not seen any definition of personal relationship not being between persons. In this context likening one's relationship to the government as a personal relationship is suggesting that Sashi see's their relationship with the government as if it was between themselves and another person. Sashi's ...

What do you think an ally is? What do you think building solidarity means? Are you saying that Unions shouldn't try to enrich the workers who are in the unions? What exact political theory do you subscribe to that casts government and its relation to its citizens/political groups as something signif...

I get that you don't get where I'm coming from because you have internalized this idea of government as parent. I don't think it is possible to really talk you out of that in this medium. Since it doesn't really effect the fact that we align politically I'm not going to waste time trying to get you ...

1) We aren't sending any US troops, we are simplying paying Kenyan troops to do it for us and also we have agreed to a military alliance with Kenya. 2) That's still definitely a US invasion! It's a US invasion even if we hire the mercenaries. 3) While in general, yeah lots of jokes about which boot...

Sashi I explained my framing of the government in detail. Asking me a question about my position on parenting in a conversation about government is irrelevant. Especially because I don't buy into your likening the government to a parent in the first place. So until you shape that question in a way r...

It's not my fault you can't read, write, or follow a conversation. I've spelled it out for you and yet you still don't understand how a person could witness you saying Joe Biden showing up to a picket line is a good sign for labor power and decide to post about how they disagree and think it's not ...

So you are doubling down on the stance that you just randomly chose to talk about if Biden was genuinely pro union despite the original post that kicked this off not making that claim. Reason? No explanation. That was a post I made and definitely didn't understand the meaning of but you definitely d...

Ok. So your claim here is then that you just so happen to talk about whether or not Biden/the dems 'actually' supports unions or labor in some way in response to a thing I said where his material support of unions was not the subject matter 'just because' and not as a direct attack on the thing I sa...

You implied it in your very first reply to that. You reposted your own response to it right there.

I like that deadDM has decided that anything other then uncritically agreeing with his self claims is apparently against the rules. It would in fact not be against the rules for Mguy to say "deaddm personally goes around strikebreaking unions in his spare time, no matter what he claims in post...

Interesting. I don't know what my sentences mean. In the bolding part I didn't say that it wasn't important but that your reducing my statement to just "it's important" and arguing from there is misleading. Not that you're misrepresenting my argument. The reason I say your iteration of my ...

I don't know why you're asking me another random question about this framing you continue wanting to use after I explicitly said I reject it.

I don't know why you're asking me another random question about this framing you continue wanting to use after I explicitly said I reject it. Whatever further twist you want to add on further is none of my business and I am not interested in this particular rabbit hole. You already alluded to this p...

This is also an extension of the family thing and further evidence that you see the nature of, and acts taken, by the government through a lense that is completely different than mine. There have been multiple strikes that have started and are ongoing for years now. Thinking that Biden showing up at...

There is a reason for the phrase personal is political. That's because the consequences of politics can affect people's personal lives. That's not a relationship to political entities. My personal life is affected by politics. My personal life isn't what I'm participating in when I do politics that'...
