      That’s not a question. For fucks sake, why am I arguing with people who can’t comprehend English? I’m adding the whole of lemmy.ml to the block list, you guys are nearly as bad as Hexbear for being able to string together a thought.

        You’re right, you didn’t ask, you just asserted that it was false. You get how that’s worse, right?

        “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.”
