    So you’re admitting that you don’t “listen” to the people you have conversations with online?

    This is looking better and better for you, isn’t it? You ask for books, then can’t talk about them, you yell “fallacy” then say you’re not debating, you say you won’t even reply anymore, but then keep coming back, despite not having anything to say except these childish attempts at being a smart-arse.

    Why do you do it?

    I can address everything we’ve talked about. I can stand behind my words. You can’t.

    You need to “up your game”.

      Go ahead and stand by your words anytime you are ready. Feel free to copy paste my questions, and put the relevant rant that “answers” any one of them below the quoted question. If you can answer all four with what you have previously written in your comments I will go back and answer every single sentence you ended with a “?”.

      Otherwise, I will just keep doing what I am doing. Which is showing this thread to my spouse, and anyone who finds chronically online nut jobs humorous, and laughing at you until we all get bored and move on with life.

      On that note, there is a lot of hope that you will continue responding as we are drinking now and having a great time. If you do not mind continuing with whatever it is you are doing that would be greatly appreciated by approximately 5 people.

      Cheers!

        It’s so easy to provoke you. All I need to do is to quote you back to yourself and you’ll get red in the face.

        Again, you can’t address anything you’ve said, or that I’ve said.

        “Feel free to copy paste” You mean “copypaste”, btw. This is the extremes you’ll go to. You just have to reply, but you can’t address anything we’ve talked about, and now literally pretend like it’s impossible for you to look at my answers, when you just wrote that “anyone can read the thread.” Why don’t you start by actually reading it yourself, hmm? It’s funny that a person who can’t even write words correctly asked me about punctuation. Hue hue hue. Like I’ve said before, you’re so pretentious it literally twists my stomach to an extent.

        It is funny that you think I am debating you, or that I owe you an answer to any of your questions when you refuse to answer mine.

        I began this thread. I made a comment. You took it as some official claim, but even got it wrong on what the claim was. You then asked for the literature I had offered to show. Which I did. Then you refused to address it, then you started yelling something about “fallacy”, (which once again is kinda funny, because it shows how you larp a philosopher/debater while not knowing what the ‘argument from fallacy’ is), then you started going totally off the rails with these childish comments. Even then, I kept replying to you. I answered your childish strawmen several times. I’ve responded with literature, but you literally can not even name the book I’ve given you, let alone actually discuss what’s in it (because it would require actually reading the book), nor even discuss the subject of the book. Because you’ve realised you’re wrong, and you’re just such a small person that even on a pseudonymous board, you get a panic attack when you think about publicly admitting to having said something stupid. I’ve addressed all your childish garbage, and you can’t address anything you’ve said or what I’ve said. It’s downright pitiful, honestly. I wish better for you.

        You keep moving your goalposts.

        I haven’t changed what I’m saying, at any point. I’ve answered you several times. If you can’t read the thread, that’s really not my issue, is it? Perhaps you need to… up your game? ;)

          You keep moving your goalposts.

          The goal post was to answer the questions posed. You still haven’t and the posts haven’t moved.

          It’s so easy to provoke you. All I need to do is to quote you back to yourself and you’ll get red in the face.

          I think you may have reached a point beyond projection, in a realm known as total delusion. The only one provoked here is obviously you. Easily verified by you putting everything “important” in bold(pretentious much?), attacking anyone who responds to you, all while pretending you are some enlightened individual who just has to be listened to for the good of man kind.

          Sorry to burst your bubble but you aren’t special, intelligent, or worth listening to. Which is why I continue to ignore what you are saying. Which I explicitly told you I was going to do.

          I do have to give you some credit though. The fact you have kept this going for almost a week is rather impressive. Sad, but impressive.

          I cannot wait for the next mess of a comment you decide to post!

            You still can’t address anything you’ve said in the thread.

            To quote you;

            It is funny that you think I am debating you, or that I owe you an answer to any of your questions when you refuse to answer mine.

            And

            No, I don’t agree that the prohibition of all drugs has to be lifted for the good of society

            You’re wrong. You’re plain wrong. The science shows this. You can’t address this. You’ll chew of your own leg before trying to debate me on this, because you realise you got into a debate with someone who knows his shit, while you’re full of shit, and you’re absolutely terrified of being ashamed “publicly.” Too late buddy. Sorry. :(

            All you can do is repeat your childish ad hom. Nothing else. I’ll quote you a bit more, but you won’t be able to address that either.

            Oh look more logical fallacy with a heavy sprinkle of personal attack

            And the earlier “you think I am debating you” combined with this gives a really nice taste of irony, doesn’t it? ;)

            You can’t stand behind those words either, because you’re now extremely ashamed when I pointed out how childish it is to pretend to know how rhetoric works by thinking that yelling out “logical fallacy” means the other person’s rhetoric can be dismissed. If you had ever read a book about rhetoric, you’d know that. But, of course you haven’t. You don’t read books. You just google the names of books. :D

            ONE MORE QUOTE (which you won’t be able to address):

            Honestly the logical fallacy and personal attacks have become quite tiresome. You are not worth any further time

            Curious how you’re still here, so upset, while loudly proclaiming I’m not “worth any further time”. Almost as if I’ve provoked you, isn’t it? ;)

              I stand by everything I have said. Made clear by the lack of editing done.

              Maybe stop quoting me out of context. You may understand why you are wrong.

                You don’t stand by everything you’ve said. Actually, you don’t stand by anything you’ve said. That’s my point. You keep saying things that are very clearly not true, verifiable by this thread. Like you said, “anyone can read it.”

                The prohibition of drugs is harmful. This is a fact. All the science we have on it shows it is. I said I can offer up any number of literature on this, after which you asked for an arbitrary ten books. I named a book called “Good Cop, Bad War.” You can’t address me having named that book, except to whinge about me not having filled your arbitrary quotas. Why would you be a definite authority and ten books be the certain criteria for proving something is true? It isn’t. If you read that book, you’d know what it’s about, but obviously, as established, you don’t read. You don’t even bother reading the comments you reply to, by your own admission.

                Which is why I linked this: https://youtu.be/y_TV4GuXFoA?si=hFGZyNJqHnPpmuLl&t=718 You don’t even need to watch that insanely long 12,5 minute video. That’s just the last 30 seconds of it, where he speaks about the book I mentioned. I quote: “My position is the position of my organisation which is the law enforcement action partnership; we advocate for the full regulation of all the drug markets, to take control away from organised crime and increasingly we’ve becoming the most important voices for reform.”

                Your position is asinine and wrong, which is the point of this entire thread. But you won’t be able to talk about it, you’ll continue with more childish personal attacks.

                edit oh like I said, you ignored the parts of the last comment which would humiliate you. you can try to ignore them to keep that thought away, but even when you delete the comments, the idiocy will remain. your need to up your rhetorical game.

                  The prohibition of drugs is harmful.

                  When did I say it wasn’t?

                  Do try not to quote me out of context this time.

                  Your position is asinine and wrong, which is the point of this entire thread.

                  What is my position?

                  edit oh like I said, you ignored the parts of the last comment which would humiliate you. you can try to ignore them to keep that thought away, but even when you delete the comments, the idiocy will remain. your need to up your rhetorical game.

                  Posted a comment and edited within 2 minutes because you forgot to attempt an insult, yet I am the one who is “provoked” and “angry”.

                  Stay mad homie.

                    And back to the childish “no I didn’t” it is. Okay, let’s do this for a few comments until you get provoked into trying something desperate again.

                    No, I don’t agree that the prohibition of all drugs has to be lifted for the good of society

                    Why would we need for you to say it’s harmful? You explicitly say that you don’t think it needs to be lifted for the good of society. It does. Just like the book “Good Cop, Bad War” explains in detail. But like I’ve said, you can’t even mention the book, because it would mean that you’d have to address something you know you’re wrong in. You asked for books, yet you can’t discuss them, because you weren’t asking for books in good faith.

                    Like I’ve said, kids like you are a dime in a dozen. You genuinely think you have some gotcha, when you’re repeating the very same things that a million others like you have. This is basically just practice for me, you see. I like rhetoric. I’m also intrigued by willful ignorance. Willful ignorance like you display when you ignore all the things you’ve said yourself. Like screaming “logical fallacy”, implying that because something has a logical fallacy in it (which it didn’t, btw, you really don’t understand those as well as you think :D), it has to be wrong and thus you’ve “won” the debate. Not understanding what an argument from fallacy is. This is like the dozenth time I’m writing this in a comment. You keep ignoring it, because you’re simply so ashamed of having said that.

                    Stay mad homie.
