Did you find yourself to be helpful writing this, or clever? Or both?

Probably confirmation bias. Content, happy people are generally not screaming out at the world about their happiness.

I definitely feel like kids would be too much for me to handle, and grew up with untreated undiagnosed ADHD till 34. Am 39 now.

What does this even mean? Like W2 taxes go directly from employer to federal right? What kind of control can California actually do to stop monetary flow to the federal government?

Leave unread till ready to process it. It should not matter when the email arrived.

Mazda RX8 was my first car, so that’s knob down, left, forward

Have you considered the possibility that you don’t have ADHD or that your symptoms are on the very mild side? You clearly have no understanding of executive dysfunction.

Never formally diagnosed lol.

Ya know… I’m thinking The Emperor of Mankind might have ADHD. It would make a lot of sense.

Huh. I guess I’m the fuckit type. I got no patience for pretending to not be me. Not anymore.

Yeah I plan on taking a course offered by a local place.

Bought my first gun.

Rather go down swinging than get disappeared to Venezuela.

2024 election was second highest turnout in 20 years wasn’t it?

Interesting, now you knew right away all sorts of things. And yet here you are still yapping away. So what does that mean, you’re some kinda masochist? Who is trolling who? All I asked of you was to tell me what assumptions I made in my analogy and you’ve exerted tremendous effort to not answer. And you keep bringing up that you weren’t talking to me. That’s not how this format of public discourse works. Are you new to public forums or something? Plenty of people jump in at various points in a thread and it creates many forks. I can draw you a diagram if that would help you.

Oh forgive me for participating in a public conversation, I didn’t realize I hacked into your DM’s between you and that fellow. Thanks for moving the goal posts though. Maybe you should have just said that in your first reply.

You’re totally right though, I’m the defensive one. Your not displaying classic projection or anything of that sort. Yet you keep responding here despite STILL refusing to answer a single question that’s been asked of you.

Here’s what it felt like conversing with you thus far.

“You’re wrong.”

“Why?”

“Because you’re wrong, stop talking to meeeee!”

“Can I have some reasons why you think I’m wrong?”

“Because you’re wrong! What part didn’t you understand?!”

“Can you give me specifics?”

“Reeeeee! I’m not talking to you!”

But you are. You’re just not saying anything.

I was expecting you to not answer a single question I asked earnestly with any detail or specificity.

Yeah, that’s about what I expected. Discussion and understanding between two parties is a two way street. You’ve provided vague refutations with no specifics. Claimed assumptions without stating what those are. I don’t even know what point you’re trying to make aside from telling people they are wrong for feeling a certain way about something.

Reasoning was provided, you seem to be incapable of processing analogies and reasoning. You just did the same thing again. Why is it meritless? Because it’s meritless. You have none of the requirements necessary to even hold a discussion. All you do is circular nonsense.

Here, let me ask you a very simple question and go from there.

What is the job of a congressmen? In the simplest terms you can think of.

You mean like how you go around telling people they don’t blame Republicans if they point out something Democrats do?

I’m not telling you who you are, you are telling me who you are. Tell me how my hypothetical is not appropriate?

That’s not how debating works. You don’t take my analogy and say “that’s meritless.” You prove it to be meritless.

See let me spell it out for you like it’s a standardized test.

In my analogy:

Burglar :: Republican

Cops :: Democrats

Dog :: My trust

Shooting :: voting against my interest

Is that clearer for you?
