Remembering to look for and ignore folks with that telltale indicator has made the fediverse so much more enjoyable.

    Oh, right, we’re still doing that bit, pretending we don’t understand basic analogies

    Are you talking about the analogy where you compared a moral stance about genocide to a mere preference between liking pancakes or waffles? I understood that analogy perfectly, as well as how utterly monstrous it was to make.

    The burden of proof falls on you to prove that I am.

    I did.

    All you have are your stupid and loaded hypotheticals.

    It’s not my fault you don’t understand hypotheticals.

      I wish you had understood the one where I abstracted away the word “genocide” that you had fixated on so you could understand what my meta-comment was about. Or how you should’ve understood that you’re the type of person to interject with “but how can you hate waffles!” when someone says they like pancakes. Sounds to me like you didn’t understand anything at all.

      I did.

      Oh, and what’s this? Now you’re questioning whether I sound like a good person? Where’s the evil Nazi you were accusing me of being just a second ago, huh?

      It’s not my fault you don’t understand hypotheticals.

      It’s not my fault you make shitty and overloaded hypotheticals. Also, let me remind you that refusing to answer does not mean failing to understand. I simply side-stepped it, bucko.
