    yes, i could probably be nicer

    Let's pretend that's all you said and start over in terms of talking to each other.

      no, because that takes it out of the context in which it was said.

      the context being that you really need to stop expecting people to conform to your expectations of conduct

        I don't expect people to conform to shit. I'd hope that I can talk to another leftist without him being a cock. But you're pretty clear on where you stand there, so just stop talking to me.

                    It's just layers and layers of irony, bud. How exhausting.

                      buddy pal friendo, when you say "the warhawks hate trump!" and i say "trump bombed am iranian general acting as a diplomat" thats not removing context, its adding it.

                      when you respond "no but they couldnt stop him his advisers hated that!" and i say "they literally stopped him from attempting the same thing to the syrian president" thats not removing context, its adding it.

                      when you say "imma pretend you only said this one part that i like and ignore entirely why you said it!" thats removing context.

                      can you really not see the difference?

                        When I say that the military dislikes Trump and you say that he bombed someone, that doesn't mean the military doesn't still fucking hate Trump. And when he went against their advisement one time and didn't go against their advisement the next time, that doesn't mean they didn't want him to drone strike Soleimani. So then when you admit you'd been acting like an asshole but that you felt justified, I thought it would be nice to just overlook your dumbass justification.

                        Anyway! Are we gonna keep doing this? This is tiresome.

                            I'd still be happy to talk, but you'd need to stop being so hostile. Feel free to message me if you want.
