Conspiracies, sheeple, the universe and everything

[Ducimus]

Leave me out of your trolling please.

Any mention of conspiracy theories I made, I did so with an air of caution and skepticism, for grins and giggles. At no point that i can recall, did i express them as my personal opinion, nor as fact. If I implied anything it was that the condition and actions of our government is so poor and abysmal as to make the conspiracy theorist look correct. Which is to say, they're doing a real bad job.

Glossing over the last few pages of the Syrian thread, its clear that your fight, and the point your trying to prove (whatever it is) is with other members of this forum, not me. So leave me out of it.

Should I break down to you what I quoted in post #2? Can you explain to me how "I'm not saying I believe it, [...] so *shrug* i dunno." means anything else than what those words mean or imply that you believe these theories?
I read you post as a "they might have a point" and I used it to explain why I see this as a logical fallacy, nothing more. If you don't stand behind the stuff you write and hate being quoted then of course I will respect it, as Your Majesty wishes.

Sorry, one last quote of you:

I did exactly post 2 times in the Syrian thread. One, po'd post, about 2 posters who wrote oversimplified stuff, a second one which should be an answer to a poster, but not only to him (this is what "I don't want to single you out" means). So, you're right, my fight was not with you.
However seeing other members being tired of OT discussions, I linked to this thread I created instead as my second post in the Syria thread. The intention was not to cluster the original one and to create a room to discuss a topic of which I have the perception that many subsim members are fed up with; something which kept constantly surfacing over the course of the last months nonetheless.

This is what I wrote about in the first post here. If you have trouble with reading comprehension, I am glad to assist you by explaining what certain words of the English language mean.

You can now go back to the "I'm done talking to you" routine, have a nice Friday!
