Where did I say anything of the sort? You're the one who called the majority of people stupid, don't try to pretend like I did the same
By framing this as common knowledge, which obviously there wouldn’t be an article about if it were, you are effectively calling them stupid for being surprised. But you know everything don’t you.
Never in history has the population let the rich get away with such disgusting corruption and unethical behavior. They’ve got the psychology behind it figured out. Take out your anger on me for pointing that out.
For someone who keeps insisting that I and everybody else is stupid and we don't see what you see, you have a funny habit of claiming that I'm acting like I know everything and have everything figured out. Same with that weird "take out your anger on me" comment, considering you're the one who's been frothing at the mouth here. It's not like I think you're wrong, you're just being a real twat about it.
Could I rent you out for an event? I'd love to use you to project movies on the Moon.
So no response to the debate at hand only personal insults. Typical
You keep desperately trying to frame this debate differently to lose sight of the point I’ve made.
Like I said, it's not like I disagree with the general idea behind that link you posted, so I really don't know what you want from me here? You've just been a huge twat about getting your point across and your kitchen psychology is hilarious. Real case of "you're not wrong, you're just an asshole"
Like I said, no logical argument, just personal insults
