Start a thread about Syria. This thread wasn't about Syria. Anyone that thinks that is "stupid".

I wanted to try that lib tactic to see how stupid it is personally.

Yep, its stupid.

Start a non-confrontational syria thread and I bet you get lots a people very close in opinions.

And all he had to do at any point in the thread was just admit that none of those people thought of that shite on their own and that they are just posting what they have been told to post by someone who dictates to them

He could have started an entire thread about what's our strategy in Syria. Hell I have that question myself

But he just couldn't let it stand that the fraudulent nature of the people tweeting was laid bare

reminder on how adhoms work: by pretending the source of an argument matters for its validity

i don't think it matters one iota if they were handed the argument or not.

it does seem obvious that they did, or that they at least planned to push the argument roughly at the same time as each other

90proof, not going to engage here other than to say this: why don’t you research the many many many dozens of times, if not more, that the same group of folks have parroted the SAME catch phrases since before the election??

Can you see why after so many times their blather rings hollow at least?

reminder that several of the people parroting the tweet claim to be journalist. Hence the point of the thread that the journalist are in bed with talking points

Dude you're six pages in. There's really no resurrecting your credibility in this thread. If you wanted to talk about Syrian strategy you could have started a thread rather than coming into this one to be an a-hole

Obviously they are controlled by the Sinclair Broadcast Group - the only group evil enough to require their broadcasters to stick to a script.

Because you're just trolling with your argument. It's also a good idea to have a comprehensive strategy for our relationship with France and for our relationship with Tonga. T called you out for acting purposefully obtuse, and that's exactly what you're doing.

y'all have seen to that

we could have just confronted the fact that op's point is no better than a talking point itself, and an inferior one to that which he is bringing up at that

and that i'm not the bad guy for pointing out that what we all want to dismiss as a talking point is very, very valid

It's a fricking truism. Why are you wanting to die on that hill? That was a rhetorical question. You're trolling. I get it.
