I hope you don't gaslight the people in your life as much as you attempt to do to people on the internet. Otherwise you're going to be a lonely and old before you know it.
But let's not pretend that you have attempted to be anything resembling honest during this engagement.
In what way am I gaslighting anyone?
Lol, my dude. Your whole argument was to perpetuate a strawman argument. Then to be dishonest about the motivation of your strawman argument, and then to accuse me of lying for pointing it out.
You don't remember the whole, I'm not making a rebuttal, I'm asking a question? And then later claiming that you confronted their claim...which would have been a rebuttal.
This whole time you've done nothing but been academically dishonest, and then you have the audacity to accuse me of lying... Pretty gaslightly to me fam. I mean you still haven't answered the question you demand from others, and haven't explained how that question is relevant.
That is another lie. I quoted the thing you initially lied about. I will quote it again:
So that's two lies.
I'm not going to address the rest of your post.
Lol, you said you didn't care about your influence teaching people to disregard criticism via logical fallacy. I think that makes your motivations selfish in nature.
Opinions you don't agree with aren't lies, your hurt feelings don't dictate what is and isn't true.
Another dishonest rebuttal.
Great, go kick rocks for all I care. Some fresh air would probably do you some good anyways.
Lie #3. You didn't give an opinion, you told me what I was doing:
I am not going to address the rest of your post.
Lol, interpreting someone's motives is a matter of opinion. I can't scientifically prove your motivations were virtue signalling and stroking your own ego, and you can't scientifically prove they weren't your motivations.
Still waiting for you to shut up..... Please, be my guest.
Lie #4. You did not "interpret," you simply told me what you decided I was doing.
Imagine if you stopped lying and just admitted you were wrong...
Lol, what do you think interpretation means?
Tell it to the man in the mirror.
Weren't you supposed to be shutting up sometime soon? Or was that another lie as well?
Lie #5. You demanded I shut up. I never said I would.
This you?
Lie #6. Suggesting not addressing your entire post is the same as saying I will shut up entirely.
This is becoming quite gaslighty, which is interesting since that's what you accused me of.
Ahh, I was hoping it was "I won't be responding to any further post". That one's on me, guess I was being optimistic.
Though it is strange that you would suddenly start saying you're ignoring certain aspects of the post, when you've been ignoring most of the argument the whole time.
Unoriginal and a liar, what a catch you are! I bet you have to beat suitors off with a stick anytime you leave your goon cave.
Ah, and now you're doing the "I'm rubber, you're glue" thing.
Also, "guess I was being optimistic" is a funny way of saying you lied.
Just giving you a taste of your own medicine.... No reason to be honest to a person who is obviously not interested in an honest conversation. This is a foreseeable conclusion when relying so heavily on arguments.
"I'm lying because you're not honest" is a very strange excuse for lying.
If someone's been dishonest with you and you explain step by step how, and they still continue with the same line of reasoning. Then they don't deserve the time it takes to make an honest response.
As I said, I'm just utilizing your line of reasoning. If you want honest answers, maybe start by being honest.
Still haven't heard who you're canvassing for, or why it's relevant to the original claim. Until you answer that, I'm just gonna keep the convo to your level of integrity.
