Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank have beaten to death a United States citizen in his early 20s, the victim’s family members and rights groups have said.

“We are aware of reports of the death of a US citizen in the West Bank,” Reuters reported a State Department spokesperson as saying. The official declined to comment further “out of respect for the privacy of the family and loved ones” of the reported victim.

You would participate in a good faith conversation because you have intelligent opinions

Why? When you're just going to respond with copy pasting reddit debate incantations, lying, and talking like an anime villain. Which is exactly what you continue to do.

or just keep hissing and spitting, whatever.

That's you, boo.

I know you are but what am I?

You just can't help yourself can you? One tired cliché after another.

The MAGAzis and MAGAzi bootlickers don't care that an American Palestinian was killed because they don't believe that he was a "real" American because he wasn't white, he wasn't Christian, and he wasn't a MAGAzi bootlicker.

A conversing isn't a debate. It's an exchange of ideas with the goal of expanding understanding of each other's opinions.

Do you want to have a conversion or do you want to continue to use one tired cliché device after another and have me point them out? The problem isn't that I'm calling them out. The problem is that you're using them in the first place. Stop being so weak and ineffectual and actually have a conversation.

Damn, now you're gone from copy pasting retorts you didn't understand from Wikipedia from copy pasting retorts you didn't understand from me

Still here when you have something intelligent to say.

Are you actually willing to talk without resorting to insults, misapplying formal debate jargon you don't understand, or misrepresenting what was previously said?

[–] MapleEngineer@lemmy.world 0 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I did not insult you.

I pointed out that you were using logical fallacies to attempt to derail the conversation. If you don't use logical fallacies I will not point out that you are using logical fallacies.

So the answer to my question is no, you aren't actually willing to do that

[–] MapleEngineer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Strawman.

If you don't do it I can't point out that you did it.

No one is going to read 21 levels deep into a three day old slapfight.
