was shopping earlier today, overheard a customer talking to an employee about "we'll do [idk what..] with the unvaccinated", both laughing.

shit is turning ugly quick and people don't even see it. it's amazing and frightening to watch.

i'm near the point of "fingers crossed for omicron hitting the vaccinated hard" to have the bullshit stop. maybe ADE is real after all.

sucks if people get ill of course, but if this general mood in the population continues we'll have good old lynchings next xmas :/

@bonifartius if you have the guts, go talk to those people and figure out what's up. Otherwise your "omg I crawled out of my cave and barely heard a voice for the first time in years and I'm scared" alarmist BS doesn't do anything but add fuel to whatever fires might or might not be burning. People lost close friends and family to this pandemic and you are here now wishing and praying "it hits them hard again". "awww it sucks for you, but I hope it happens again so you learn your lesson"(which is what exactly by the way? you tried you failed haha!), what a freaking hero!

@namark @bonifartius
>People lost close friends and family to this pandemic
No they didn't.

@Eris thanks for enlightening us, point being? "I decree that nobody died last time, and I hope they die next time?" Or are you just jerking a knee.

@bonifartius

@namark @bonifartius No matter how many times you repeat the same lie, we will never pretend it's true along with you.

@Eris can you even read? I just accepted your premise in the last message... please read...

@bonifartius

@AR-15 oh no! did I break your heart by appearing dishonest my dear?

@Eris @bonifartius

@namark @AR-15 @bonifartius Yes, it is a sad and tragic thing for a person to lie to themselves. It fills us with sorrow for your soul. We expect better from you.

@Eris I'm so sorry I'm so broken, to be able to accept one's premise in an argument is a horrible mental illness I know. Thank you for your concern.

@AR-15 @bonifartius

@namark @AR-15 @bonifartius
You condescendingly used a strawman version of my premise to argue against me.
That is not accepting the premise, it is rejecting it with extra steps.

@Eris @AR-15 I didn't argue with you, I accepted your premise and simply ask you for your point in context of the OP and my reply, and you kept on going pretending that I said something I didn't say, arguing with something you imagined to yourself.

@bonifartius

@namark @AR-15 @bonifartius
>, I accepted your premise
No, you didn't.
> and simply ask you for your point in context of the OP and my reply
Asking an argumentative question is arguing.
@namark @AR-15 @bonifartius
> it's hilarious
Ah, we've reached the weird stage of meta-discussion where you act as though your strange behavior is done to amuse yourself rather than to protect yourself.

@Eris you are the only one who is meta here, I keep begging you to go back to OP context since the start

@AR-15 @bonifartius

@namark @AR-15 @bonifartius
> I keep begging you to go back to OP context since the start
That's what I'm begging you to do.

@Eris no you you are ignoring the OP and instead focusing on one fact that is so important to you that you can't just stop talking even when I say I accepted it, over and over and over again

@AR-15 @bonifartius

@namark @AR-15 @bonifartius
> even when I say I accepted it, over and over and over again
I don't see a single post of you saying that you agree there has been no pandemic. Please link it.

@Eris what are you a lawyer? or one of those fedposters fishing for crap? can't understand an implication? again I would ask you to learn english

@AR-15 @bonifartius

@AR-15 @bonifartius @namark
Furthermore if you leave me with no choice but to guess what you think you can't blame me if I guess wrong.

@Eris@kiwifarms.cc@AR-15@poa.st Because I answered the first time and I can't bare repetition, It's too boring

@bonifartius

@Eris no it accepts it, however snarkily, but that is not acceptable to you. You want me to argue about it, but I'm not and it's pissing you off @bonifartius

@namark @bonifartius Arguing against my premise with snark is the exact opposite of accepting it.
Follow

@Eris you can't argue with a snark, literally look up definition, it's not embarrassing, it's ok to do

@bonifartius

@namark @bonifartius
> you can't argue with a snark
Sure you can, these days it's the most common method people use to argue, which is sad.
@namark @bonifartius

If you are charictarizing my idea snarkily and implying it is dumb, that is a form of argument.

@Eris I'm just teaching you english... a snark is not an argument itself... I can assume something that I cocider dumb to be true for the sake of a single discussion, to explore ones mind and possibilities... but that is beyond you it seems, you just want your truth to be manifested so hard, that you can't understand that I couldn't care less

@bonifartius

@namark @bonifartius

> I can assume something that I cocider dumb to be true for the sake of a single discussion, to explore ones mind and possibilities...
That's not what you did. You "assumed it was true" to explore a single snarky comment which clearly shows you disagree.

@Eris no I assumed it's true to allow you to get to your point... but you had no point other than the assertion, and you can't let it go
@bonifartius

@namark @bonifartius
>I assumed it's true to allow you to get to your point.
"Oh yeah, if that's true why do you want to murder people, you evil bad guy!?!?!?!"
is snark.

@Eris no you can't, you can pretend to argue with a snark, or whatever else you are doing here, doesn't make it a real argument

@bonifartius

@namark @bonifartius

Yes, I agree, you are arguing in a way that is pretend and lazy.
Do better.
@namark @bonifartius
> or whatever else you are doing here
I'm trying to be reasonable with you and you refuse to return the favor.
