    Does that make it better?

    To be honest, not really. Usually when there is a claim it goes, I believe that X is true because of Y reasons. Not what ever this is that you are attempting.

        Buttcoin is the future of online butts. Buttcoin is a peer-to-peer butt. Peer-to-peer means that no central authority issues new butts or tracks butts.

      nah what’s happening here is I am making claim X. Then you go: are you claiming Y? Prove it! And then I go: no. Then you start talking all this shit about covert CIA ops and mafia pizza joints and whatever, showing no signs of understanding that I said X. What choice do I have but to conclude that you are an idiot

        Then show supporting evidence for your X then?

        USAID is that it is primarily a front for CIA operations

          This was my X:

          My understanding of USAID is that it is primarily a front for CIA operations.

          Evidence:

          ??? You want brain scans?

            Exactly, you made the whole thing up.

            USAID is not primarily a front for CIA operations. It is a organization responsible for foreign aid and development. Sure the CIA has used some USAID programs for their own purposes, but that doesn’t mean USAID itself is primarily a CIA operation.

              My mistake! Sorry, Captain America! I will never be cynical about US foreign policy ever again!

                Not defending the US foreign policy, but this is just right-wing propaganda to cut funding to essential programs. So I’m shutting it down.
