Maybe the "the Internet is a bubble" people were actually right and we're about to see it come to a conclusion inshallah-script

It would be so handy to communicate with someone from the other side of a window or something too

I expect everyone would develop a habit of signing some things while talking, to emphasize a point or provide context.

The point is that the western sequence of events is incorrect on the face of it.

Almost none of that is responding to anything I actually said or meant, and I don't think I was vague or unclear whatsoever.
I respect you as a comrade Catradora but you're being reactionary and putting a bunch of words in my mouth that I don't feel like responding to. I'm not going to lose sleep over this, so I'm disengaging.

Better words would describe all of these feelings except being horny for hummus. I feel that.

Punching down is generally considered poor taste.

You can be called out for being reactionary about something without being a reactionary. JT was being moderately reactionary about being asked if he would have a vegan on. You acknowledge one of his points, that being vegan is too expensive, is wrong in another comment. He also said that animals are less important than human comrades, which doesn't make much sense to bring up because going vegan doesn't kill you, and that his audience would feel "attacked" by having a vegan on to talk about animal liberation, which if you're causing harm you should maybe feel a little attacked? That's fine. If you're deciding not to talk about a topic because you might lose a few of your more reactionary fans, you're being liberal. I didn't see any vegan criticism that was out of hand.

walter-breakdown I was having such a good time dunking on you and then you had to go and be perfectly reasonable. How could you do this?
