You made a valid point. While both maintain that Taiwan is part of China, I suppose that doesn’t inherently preclude them both being independent countries. You’ve convinced me that that’s not a valid line of argument, so I’ve dropped it. You have scored a goal in the goalposts.
I still don’t see what any of this has to do with the racist meme.
It’s kind of shocking that it has so many upvotes. I guess I’m saving this one and adding it to my pile of, “Reasons why I don’t give a shit what the majority of people on here think.”
I swear, I try to concede a point, I get accused of being a bot. What, should just dig in and refuse to concede anything, even if I’m wrong, because doing so makes me sound like a bot? Y’all make it impossible to act in good faith.
Is it so unbelievable that I could be convinced that a particular line of argument I was using was wrong? I had never thought to apply the logic I was using to the specific case of Israel/Palestine, and when I tried to think of a rebuttal, I couldn’t. That’s that. Humans make mistakes, Jesus.

They can’t answer you because 1) it is racist and they have no rebuttal, or 2) it is racist and they like it so they won’t care to give a rebuttal.

I’ve never used AI in a post. Not here, not ever.
