going to take this as a very squirmy "no, i cannot back up my assertions"

Sigh. I was hinting at the difference between inductive and deductive thought.

I imagine you have a rather high opinion of your intelligence, but you have utterly failed to understand even a single one of my arguments. Either you are too emotionally crippled by your desire to broadcast negativity over the Internet, intellectually lazy after a life of instagram and twitter, or just not as smart as you think you are. In any case, I hope you work it out.

Her entire political worldview is bent on positing self interest as the supposed altruistic aim of society. What do you expect?

im not really interested in any arguments for why i should believe something without proof. sorry if my unwillingness to let you change the subject has made you think i dont understand you.

as for the rest of the personal attacks in this r/iamverysmart-worthy attempt at a dressing down, i will try to take them to heart.

I thought I would update this thread in honor of Trump's Mexican tariff tweet. My read here is that Trump has three goals:

• Pelosi & the Obstructionists (err, the Democrats) who have no agenda other than whatever Trump doesn't want to do will suddenly fall all over themselves to pass his new trade bill, the USMCA
• The new tariffs will probably (80% confidence) never be implemented. I imagine most Mexicans are not thrilled with these migrant caravans anyway - anyone else remember the migrant who made a video about how they were taking over Tijuana and they found his body the next day? - and this will give their government an incentive to actually do something about it. So Trump can stop the migrants even before the Wall is built.
• At this point Trump probably wants to crash the stock market (50% confidence) or is at least indifferent. The World Socialists/Deep State/MI6/Illuminati/satanists/pedophiles/Chinese Communists/KGB/whatever you want to call them set this crash in motion the day Trump was elected when Powell began raising interest rates and lowering the Fed's balance sheet. The plan is most likely for the various CCP members to dump all of their assets at once (remember that trade deficit? 500 billion x 20 years = 10 trillion in US financial assets). If Trump is now indifferent to this, it's probably because he's confident he can place the blame on the conspiracy where it belongs, and that means he's about to begin indictments starting with Brennan and Comey.

P.S. I hope you stayed short on TSLA after the capital raise, Throndor!

I kind of doubt I've said anything that would trigger a moderator, but it wouldn't bother me at all to have my account banned. That's right mods, the gauntlet is down!

I was actually quite careful not to include the Jews in that list, not out of any desire for political correctness, but because while plenty of Jews are involved in this conspiracy, especially in Hollywood, Wall Street, and the mainstream media, I don't think they are the primary players.

Or

Boehner & the Obstructionists (err, the Republicans) who have no agenda other than whatever Obama doesn't want to do.


Sound familiar?
