As often as l can get away with. The more buIIshit about myself out there, the Iess IikeIy peopIe wiII be abIe to sift through it aII to find anything reaI l might have Iet sIip. Because l’II be honest, l’m not very good at poIicing what l say about myseIf. The next best option is to poIIute anything you might be abIe to gIean about me with mass amounts of misinformation.
That only works if they can read or are open to changing their mind. These kinds of people can’t, generally.
Honestly, more people should be.
I like how this implies that Groundskeeper Willie uses Linux.
Nair, not hair.
Also, this is the most Reddit I have seen come from Lemmy, which simultaneously entertains and worries me.
Learning how to edit code during runtime to remove any DRM or remote shutdown code would be the first thing I do even before getting into my new steelsuit.
See what I mean? Much easier to just call you a grade-school dropout and call it a day.
I don’t tend to engage with people whose only rebuttal is to a strawman, because it’s not going to do a damn thing. Takes more effort to refute the bullshit people like that will fling than an argument with them on the internet is worth, so I usually just point and laugh.
That being said, allow me to give you a more accurate representation of my argument; because I’m feeling generous.

There are five major wars America participated in that tend to be prevalent in my generation’s psyche. These, listed chronologically, are: the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World War 2, the Vietnam War, and the War on Terror.
Of these, two of them dealt heavily with genocide. World War 2 because we were simultaneously avenging one and preventing its completion, and Vietnam because the overwhelming attitude of the US’ commanding officers in that war was, “Kill all Commies,” and the majority saw no difference between a Communist and your average Vietnamese person.
Therefore: in my generation’s psyche, our country is one and one in terms of genocides stopped and genocides attempted.
In addition, the United States is one of the main sponsors of Israel as a country, and is basically the entire reason it hasn’t been wiped out by all of its neighbors, who hate it and everyone in it. They all realise that to attack Israel would cause the US to retaliate and basically wipe them off the map. This gives the US a certain level of responsibility for what Israel has decided to do whilst under that protection, since it wouldn’t have happened otherwise.
Further: the UN’s call for a ceasefire in that conflict has been vetoed by the United States. So basically that makes the US responsible for allowing the bloodshed to continue.
Therefore: yeah, the United States is, in fact, responsible for Israel’s continuing genocide attempt by vetoing the call for ceasefire and not doing anything tangible to stop the bloodshed committed by a country it has protected from its inception to today.
Overall: we are one and one for genocide v not-genocide, and it’s not looking good.
This is a hilariously misleading summary of American history.
America has only been in 2 conflicts and is responsible for genocide carried out by a sovereign state
Fucking lmao

Oh, hello strawman argument! How are you doing?
Yeah, our ancestors stopped genocide during World War 2. And then other ancestors tried to engage in genocide against Vietnam. And now we’re only just starting to attempt to convince Israel to not do genocide. So the record currently stands 1-1, with the current one being the tiebreaker.
ARCANE!!!
I’m over here thinking: Oh, League of Legends fans are all overreacting over getting something that’s probably decent at best…
My friend, let me tell you, they were not overreacting.
Fucking billions! ONE billion would be enough to never have to work again if you live lavishly! And this irresponsible, pathetic narcissist is having a tantrum because number won’t go up. I actually want to be alone in a room with him tied to a wall and a set of supplies that would make the CIA go pale. Same with every other sociopathic manchild that’s killing us all because ”Durr, number go up,”
Hamas and cheese sandwich.
I’m ready to beat some mfers with a spatula over these shenanigans. Big management mfers are so goddamn out of touch they couldn’t use a smartphone.
You see, and then they go and do shit like that.
Why can’t the villains just be moustache-twirlingly evil and the heroes be radiantly pure, like in the old Saturday morning cartoons? It would make the works a whole lot easier.

Thanks, Martin, you fucking greedy imbecile.
Yeah, they got Al Capone for tax evasion, and they’ll get you for confessing to a crime on official government documents.
You sound like you’ve eaten the Roundmeal regularly since childhood.
