Look we don't really need a devil's advocate for a guy that makes biblical Satan seem pretty chill. I get you like being contrarian but there's better places to put that energy than the flaming shit pile that is Trump and his rabid followers.

I'm not doing this to defend Trump, I'm doing it to ensure our side is bulletproof from any accusations of mischaracterization, as good practice. We have plenty of ammunition to use, and we should use it. We don't need to make any stretches to win.

They don't fucking care how bulletproof our arguments are. In this thread, you have accomplished nothing but to piss off everybody you claim to be allied with. Are you proud of yourself?

I'm aware that they don't care. We should still care, because if we intend to stand for the truth then we should make good on that promise.

you claim to be allied with

Check my post history, I'm not pretending. I don't really care if I make people a little annoyed, because my goal is to ensure any arguments they make are consistent, which is basically guaranteed to make some people mad.

Are you proud of yourself?

I mean no not really, this thread was a disaster. My argument was poorly chosen and I don't think most people got the point even if it hadn't been. We did get a massive list of Trump's minions attacking people out of it at least, but that's not really on me.
