Jesus Christ what a level of pedantry is this... I'm not engaging with this kind of bullshit, so go ahead and regard it as "a failure on my side."

Fucking trolls wasting everyone's time and poisoning every discussion...

So, no, you don't show your source. I treat your argument as such.

I made no argument. There's nothing to source.

You're trying to start a kindergarten-level fight and I'm not interested in engaging in that kind of behavior. I'm here for discussion, not pedantry.

Go waste someone else's time with your trolling.

You made an argument. I'm demanding the source of your argument.

Keep on going like I didn't twice already say I'm not interested in engaging in trollish pedantry.

I'll take your words seriously after you learned that calling someone a troll is not a pass to properly making an argument.

👍👍

And you call me a troll. Wow.

I keep telling you I'm not interested in having this conversation with you, and you keep replying and trying to pick a fight.

That's how everyone reading this knows you're a troll.

When someone repeatedly tells you they're not interested in talking to you, and you keep trying to start an argument, you are a troll.

Your argument below is suspicious:

Here in Japan, the term comfort women is used for the exact same reason it is used in English and around the world: it clearly and unequivocally describes the people being it is used to describe.

Can you show me a source of this?

That's what I asked. You didn't, and started calling me a troll. I clarified my argument and you just continued calling me a troll. That's on you. You can't show the source.

My god, dude. I told you that I am not fucking interested in engaging with you and you just. will. not. stop. I'm not going to suddenly start engaging with you now that you pretend to want to actually have a discussion. That ship sailed several comments ago.

When someone repeatedly tells you they're not interested in talking to you, and you keep trying to start an argument, you are a troll. You want to argue so fucking bad that you just can't stop trying. You are a fucking troll.

Go start your argument with someone who gives a shit.
