If you can't accept my roots in the Ridgewood/Glendale area it's impossible to discuss anything with you.You really are thick, aren't you? Did you huff lead paint when you were a kid? I never disputed that you were from the Ridgewood/Glendale area. I said that the fact that you are from the Ridgewood/Glendale area does not make it a valid argument to declare that your point has totally been proven by a bunch of dudes you know (whose identities you don't provide and whose existence can't possibly be verified). You will go to sleep, or not, with the knowledge that we're on the same side. We're pro-"choice". You can't shake your similarity to me. You keep saying we're on the same side, similar, etc, but although specifically asked on many occasions, you refuse to say what "side" you're actually on. At every turn, you have evaded and made excuses, but at no point have you ever stated precisely what your position is— despite that generally being the first thing one does in a debate. I direct you once again to my questions. I'll even repeat them here for good measure. You support abortion in what sense? That it should be legal? Compulsory? Compulsory only for people of certain demographics? It seems fairly clear that our beliefs on this subject have essentially nothing in common; you take positions consistent with the extreme right, you demonstrate shibboleths associated with the extreme right, and you have only the vaguest understanding of what my beliefs are (even though I've stated them explicitly). However, it's impossible to determine the precise extent to which our beliefs are different because you won't say what your beliefs are. Given your close association with the extreme right, it's a fair bet that you won't disclose your beliefs because you know they're incoherent, irrational, immoral, or some combination thereof. As a result, this conversation has ended. Very well. I'll note down that you're an anti-choice racist who believes the crime rate can be reduced by a eugenics program involving forced abortions performed on the race you declare inferior, but you're sufficiently aware that this belief is abhorrent that you refuse to say it out loud. That's the conclusion I'm forced to draw from what little you've posted. If you want to correct me, you're free to tell me what you actually believe by answering a few simple questions. Namely: You support abortion in what sense? That it should be legal? Compulsory? Compulsory only for people of certain demographics? If abortion is legal but not compulsory, who gets to make the decision? Who are they obligated to consult before making it? |
