“You just don’t know what you’re talking about…”
That’s the part that makes it personal. Notable that you’ve still offered nothing in the way of your perceived correction. It stops at “you’re wrong” as if that were how conversations operate. If you believe I’m wrong, why not try to convince me?
That's not a personal attack. A personal attack would be saying your a dumb reddit-brained smuglord. And an ad hominem would be saying you're wrong because youre a dumb reddit-brained smuglord.
I didnt stop at saying your wrong. I said you should investigate the people and revolutions you're talking about, because if you did investigate you would know you're wrong. That's why i said you don't know what you're talking about, because no one could have actually read about the 1917 revolution, the Chinese Revolution, or the Cuban revolution and think that they are not communist revolutions, or just "dressed up in the clothes of communism"
If you believe you're right, why aren't you trying to convincing me?![emoji michael-laugh michael-laugh](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/3858ea0f-f09c-4c6f-95a1-5dda154612ad.png)
You're the one who made an assertion that is obvioulsy untrue to anyone who knows about those subjects. You made these obviously false assertions without any evidence whatsoever, but somehow the burden of proof for what you said is on me.
Shapiro voice: You replied with a picture. That's not how conversations work. If you believe you are right, why not try to convince me instead?
