That's how you get Magna Carta where the aristocrats, the most powerful people, go to the king and say, we want power too.

Tell me you don't know what the Magna Carta is without saying you don't know what the Magna Carta is.

he's literally correct about what the magna carta is

yeah, but it still specifically protected barons, not the common person

when he says this:

That's how you get Magna Carta where the aristocrats, the most powerful people, go to the king and say, we want power too

he's correct

dropping the emojis again i love it

your post boils down to "marxism good because i say", which is a shit argument for marxism

there's really nothing more to it than that, and it's pretty obvious that you've realised it at this point

hence how pointedly you're avoiding actually engaging with anything i say and i'm here for it every step of the way

[–] polonius-rex@kbin.run 1 points 2 months ago (4 children)

it's hilarious that you think that has anything to do with your post

ah and thus we arrive at the final stop of our journey

"the right answer is right because i say it is right", confirming that, at no stage did you have anything resembling a good point to make in its defense

i'm glad we could all reach this together i'm so happy for us

oh my god it was beautiful

it was nearly an argument and then it just crashed and burned so quickly, and it was so clearly meant to be some kind of coup de grâce

reasoning about the actual mechanics, and thinking through their implications

okay so if a person grows up in the wrong environment, and so they reason about the actual mechanics, and think through the implications in a way that you don't like, it's bad

but when they do it and get an answer that you do like, it's good

the only difference between the two scenarios is your personal opinion on their conclusion

excuse me buddy i think you need to work on your

reading comprehension

let's try again

can you trust a person's gut reaction? yes or no?

oh my god is that the point you were trying to make? i kind of assumed it wasn't because it actually doesn't help your argument in any way

like, okay, you're shaped by your surroundings. so? so you can't trust your gut because your surroundings could have shaped you to have the wrong gut reaction?

incredible that you're actually arguing against yourself now
