Comment on Trump advisor LOSES HIS MIND when confronted by foreign journalist
Cephalotrocity@biglemmowski.win 6 days agoBecause I prefer rational arguments as they are the best ones for elucidating Truth, not appeals to emotional ones. I’d rather know I was right for good reasons than just join the mob right or not. In this case anyone could have accused Kamala of ‘being black’ and I could refute it without needing to racism claims into it.
Interesting that you use the word ‘charitable’ as the Principle of Charity is literally what I’m talking about.

Cool. The truth is he said something racist.
Stop sealioning.

Seriously, you’re a mod. Do better.

I am not a mod in this community and you are sealioning. You can argue away literally everything racist Trump has ever said with your “charity” approach. Because he can be this explicit and you still give him the benefit of the doubt. You can be just as charitable and say that the “immigrants are eating dogs” claim isn’t racist. And I wouldn’t be surprised if you do the same sort of sealioning on that one.

No, I’m not entertaining your tried and true slippery slope of straw man accusations when you lose an argument. Be better, because this schtick is getting old and abusive. I’ve done nothing but politely explain my quite reasonable position and only answered your questions as best I can. Continuing on at this point would be sealioning as you’ve obviously tilted into direct attacks on me and to continue this to your embarrassment would only serve to further your agenda of getting a report enforced.
Have a good day Squid. Feel free to read up on that Principle of Charity link I previously supplied for a better understanding of rational argumentation.
