Soft Language: Tautological Replacements

[Mpamaegbu]

There is something called "Euphemism" in literature. It's a better way of expressing a bitter truth. Even though it still doesn't obstruct the intrinsic meaning, it does help the impact to be mild. Soft language is valuable. Otherwise Americans would be free to call Mr. Trump an idiot right to his face. But they do have a soft way of saying it.

By your own logic then I would be justified in attacking you. You are willing to put me in danger, therefor you are a direct threat to me and force is justified.

Yes.

Well, I am glad you can see the error in your logic -_-

You're even dumber than what you seem.

I'm saying that there is no error in my logic and that you are justified to attack me.

We're in completely opposed ideologies. There is NO WAY to live together. We have never managed to reach even one consensus on anything. Not even once.

You are everything I hate and despise and I guess it's the same for you. Hence force is fully justified unless we can live far enough from each other.

Yahuh. You are quick to enter into death battles with people you don't know on the internet aren't you? If you can take a break from LAARPing for a second, you can see I said "by your own logic" not "we can never agree and we are justified in killing each other." I only support violence in defense from violence, and to a lesser extent to protect ones rights and property.

You however were very eager to toss debate out the window in favor of violence. Little boy, you don't even have a clue what you are trying to get into. You have no frame of reference for which to understand the hell your play revolution is going to cost, because one day it is going to get VERY real.

You say

I answer that I stand by my own logic. That's all.

Well that should be fun having nothing to stand by.

It's quite fun to see how empty is your speech. I've never seen you bring anything on the discussion. You're just here to troll without bringing anything constructive. Even on a discussion where we agree you're still the sad little rat coming to point finger towards "leftists" saying how horrible they are.

You're a sad, angry little man that's for sure.

But I forgive you. You're not even responsible for it. You probably strongly lack any education and I bet you never had more than 5 books at home.

You most certainly had a hard life working a lot hence giving you little time to think.

I don't condemn you for being what you are now. You're a product of your environment.

To be sure, TECHSHARE has had his troubles in life. Thank you for forgiving him. Now if you could only become as logical as he is...

You know it's going to be a great thread when BADecker replies to it. I'm excited.

Let's redirect the argument back to full points rather than ad-hominem, yes?

Do you want free speech to have no restrictions^*, full stop?

_{*I do realize that free = no restrictions is a tautology but we are using "free speech" as the term}

George Carlin is one of my favorite comedians; wish we had another one of him.


I'm not a fan of "political correctness": people simply find new ways to put the same old meaning on new words and phrases. Forcing others into acting politically correct has replaced genuine respect, or disrespect with people who are constantly offended by everything: these circumstances  don’t leave much room for open discussion, debate or healthy discourse.

actmyname says
“Why confuse people to "avoid negativity" when you're still discussing the same thing?”

       Also: in today’s climate of “political correctness” frequently... negative connotations are added to words where they didn’t exist to begin with.


actmyname,
I want speech to have very few restrictions by my government.
I would like citizens to start putting more restrictions on our government.
