Not doubting you, but curious to hear some examples

Are we offering trigger warning to protect the delicate sensibilities of Christians now?

If you can't handle someone being sarcastic about your religion, perhaps it's time to reconsider your belief system.

I wonder if there's a name for this fallacy...

As if everyone just looking at literally any large investment and saying "it's a bubble!" is doing anything other than being a broken clock right twice a day.

Suggesting that something isn't true simply because a lot of people are saying it's true (with or without evidence, doesn't really matter). "I keep reading about this being a bubble, so that means it can't be true"

It's like the inverse (converse? I forget. It's been years since I took a logic course) of an appeal to the masses.

Regardless, it's fallacious reasoning.

I mean yeah sure, if you choose to ignore all of the evidence.

Specifically, the circular nature of the investment and funding is hard to brush off and ignore.

What nonsensical logic.

"I've been hearing this for a while so that must mean it's not true"

Yeah and 08 was pretty bad.

And this will be worse.

Not to sound terminally USian, but 300 ft is 100 yards, which is 1 football field.

I don't think commercial jets are the length of a football field.

Maybe like ½ - ⅔ of one at most.

Which is why Alex Jones was a CIA asset whether he knew it or not

No need to wonder, it's been obvious for years now.

Being a useful idiot doesn't require the person being aware of their idiotic usefulness. Usually they aren't.

We don't do that here. Now go on, git

Why is the implication here that difficult gameplay can't be good? Hard disagree

I wonder how many of them would even understand this reference. They don't seem very educated on world history.

Yeah I remember when Obama and Biden killed all of our soft power worldwide for no real reason.

I remember when they tore up the existing Iran agreement and invaded them in an attempt to get a worse agreement.

I also remember now that foreign policy is the only thing we're allowed to compare, so really good point!

Justify? I don't understand the question....

They simply do not bother trying.

It's pretty soul crushing when it's your parents.

Well I hope you're right, otherwise the wrong file will be gone forever.

Seems to be only one way to find out as well.

And really, we're just making them actually pay for some of the externalities they're getting a free ride on.

But it wouldn't be making them pay for that because they would pass that cost onto the consumer as they always do.

And yeah, if they have to, they switch. To a more expensive material. And guess who pays for that?

Which left wing European governments are building state-owned grocery stores?

Ah, and there it is.

Why even bother replying if you don't have an answer? You just made yourself look fucking stupid.
