    “I didn’t say anything about a conspiracy! I just said Biden is a puppet of George Sores!”

    Least disingenuous fascist.

      I didn’t say anything about a conspiracy with Russia, and I certainly didn’t say anything about George Soros (I assume)

      Are you okay?

        You know what I meant, I know you know what I meant, everyone else reading knows you know what I meant. What are you hoping to accomplish by playing dumb?

            “Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

            ― Jean-Paul Sartre

              You are the one who jumped to a conclusion and proceeded to liken me to a nazi. Quoting classical thinkers won’t change that.
