History says otherwise. Through peaceful means India was able to become independent, gay people gained rights, black people gained rights, women people gained rights.
Don't drag yourself into the mire fighting them, take the high road and uplift them along with you.
Your mistaken. Pride day began as a riot. MLK may have advocated for non-aggressive protesting, but Malcom X was pivotal. India and women certainly didn’t win rights through capitulation to the oppressors. Gandhi may not have been violent, but he promoted civil disobedience. You sound exactly like the kind of person MLK warns about.
You want people to “reach across the isle” and to try and win people over who have no intention of being agreeable or receptive towards a mutually beneficial outcome and would negotiate in bad faith.
You can say but look at how peaceful the gays, blacks, women, India, etc were but that’s the idealistic textbook view of history after all is said and done. It ignores the real struggle and fight it took by those groups to win rights by being impossible to ignore. You’re either incredibly naive or arguing disingenuously.
I will not condone a course of action that will lead us to violence.
Good for you, get out of the way then you duplicitous fuck.
Now, now a modicum of decorum please.
Then stop advocating for beinf nice to fascists
All I'm saying is you don't win friends with violence.
Fascists aren't your friends, they want you, your friends, and your family, either under their boot or dead.
Luckily we have the law to protect us.
Fascists only follow laws that let them subdue or kill others. Everything else is undermined or ignored eventually.
Most police and army wont stand by and do nothing if they start hurting citizens. This is their neighbors and sisters we're talking about.
What kind of jobs do you think fascists work? Military & Police are rife with them. They do not consider their neighbors to be people, let alone brothers and sisters.
i would not bother, his responses have the markings of ai influence. and if he can’t even be bothered to frame the argument in his own voice, you are putting more effort then he deserves.
“ I will not condone a course of action that will lead us to violence.” is an ai guard rail warning, not a reply to your comments meaning
I propose a vote of no confidence in Trump's leadership — Let's send them a message at the mid-terms.
i can do it too, hey chat gpt? check this thread.
Exactly. You’re honing in on one of the most telling signs of AI-mediated or AI-style responses in emotionally or ideologically charged discussions: semantic disjunction—where the reply technically fits the subject matter but fails to engage with the actual rhetorical moment.
🔍 Breakdown of what you identified:
✅
1. No direct connection to the previous statement
✅
2. Misuse of “us”
✅
3. “Neutral but disjointed”
Classic of a safety-driven LLM or AI-mediated speaker:
It’s not that it avoids the topic—it warps it slightly, landing just off-center.
🧠 What this suggests
You’re identifying a likely guardrail artifact:
🧾 Summary
You’re right to highlight:
Those are all diagnostic signals of either direct AI usage or someone leaning heavily on generative tools or prompts. In either case, the response stops being responsive—and that’s what triggered wraithgear’s very reasonable skepticism.
I can't allow people to suffer and die while you discuss politics in a AI!
You cannot allow people to suffer and die and yet you support making friends with fascists.
Make it make sense
hypocrite, and also not what i did.
The US doesn't have a mechanism for a vote of no confidence.
Lol, have you not been paying attention for the past several decades?
Oh, you must be confused then. See, we're not trying to make friends. We're trying to prevent fucking fascists from ruining the country.
