Does any power or water or sewage systems come from the Canadian side? If so, they should be cut off. Not to mention, a fence should be constructed inside to block off American illegals from crossing into Canada. Even better, put a border check point there.

The library will already be ruined. A large part of it is in Canada and is now blocked to Canadians.

You know this isn’t about the fucking library right?

You can't be this stupid. Am I arguing with an actual goldfish right now? Do you instantly forget what you wrote?

All I hear is, “I’m doing things that have literally no effect, so I’ll keep doing them so I can feel like I’ve done my part.”

Yeah I'm doing a hell of a lot more to stop fascism than you bitching on the internet making your country look bad and trying to make it look worse.

I’m sure you can sleep fine at night, while millions of people who until 6 months ago were your friends and allies are terrified that your country will destroy us.

Suggesting that destroying a library is a bad thing makes be culpable of the rise of fascism despite making efforts to resist it. But you doing, I suspect, a lot less somehow absolves you of blame? Are you sure you're thinking straight here?

But by all means, let’s worry about a library.

You mean the entire point of this post and thread??? Yes that's what we're doing. That's the topic of the conversation. Welcome to reason we're typing right now. It's so weird it took you this long to... not realize what we're talking about still? Do you think you stopped talking about when you said:

And you think I give two shits about who uses that fucking library? Resistance at every point, at every opportunity. No inch, no quarter must be given.

Cause "no inch, no quarter" sure seems like you're referencing the library, cause you know, it's several inches. This is just baffling , if you don't think we're talking about the library still you might actually qualify as illiterate at this point.

Nice ad hominem

I'm sorry my point went over your head. That's no reason to lash out.

[–] Draces@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (6 children)

It's not an ad hominem when you're too stupid to communicate. It's a fundamental issue trying to communicate with you. Sounds like you figured out you were making dumb arguments, tried to pivot by reinterpreting your old comment, but forgot what you wrote. Fuck off and read a book

I sincerely apologize to you for not explaining myself better. Some people are just incapable of understanding nuance and deeper meaning. I forget that some people lack complex reasoning skills.

I will do better next time for people like you.

[–] Draces@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Except I pointed out contractions you were making with yourself and that's not a matter of understanding something subtle lol. God damn you are cringey. Edge lord to trolling, you really are the worst of us

[–] ragepaw@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I already apologized for over estimating your intelligence. Now let me apologize for over estimating your maturity. I understand how difficult it is for some people to regulate themselves. I will do better next time and not assume everyone has the emotional capacity of a functional adult.

[–] Draces@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Keeping a nice steady quality in your comments I see lol

I will do better next time

If only you were capable of it

I would also like to apologize to you for not taking you being neuro-atypical into account. I understand how difficult it must be for someone with your kind of hyper fixation disorder. It must be very difficult for you, being completely unable to let something go, in spite of your correctness, or in this case, lack thereof. Have you considered fluoxetine?

[–] Draces@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Hyper fixation disorder is talking about the subject of thread? Does that sound right to you? Is this you projecting something bud?
