Noam Chomsky posted:Nah, this can't be true. It's bad and doesn't work! ...is your proposal that a law was passed in the United States, therefore it is a good law? Doctor Butts posted:Please Trump. Say something dumb again soon. He said he'd fix everything, and railed on E-mails for a while. Said that Tim Kaine isn't popular in Virginia and is bad, but Mike Pence is very good. He seems exhausted.

Mel Mudkiper posted:Noam serious question, why are you still posting? I was answering people who were trying to claim I am trying to prove free trade is bad by re-stating that I was originally saying I can SEE why people don't like the TPP because NAFTA has gotten such a bad rap and that a lot of jobs were, or may have been, lost due to it. I'm not trying to prove anything except that certain posters have issues with reading comprehension and just want to argue, especially if you trigger them by speaking poorly of things like the TPP or NAFTA, apparently. If I'm bothering you then put me on your ignore list like I've done to a lot of annoying posters.

anyway the point of me posting that had nothing to do with protectionism, the point was that "socialist"/"safety net" countries are much less protectionist than the United States and like the farmers in Norway are constantly upset and want Norway to leave the EU because it marginalizes them despite the fact that they can't loving farm for half of the year. Being free trade does not prevent you from taking care of your citizens and being protectionist doesn't mean that you take care of your people.

Yes we would like to argue in the forum for arguments, but you refuse to and just retreat behind the wall of "I'm being dogpiled/persecuted by THE HIVEMIND", which makes everyone dogpile you for being bad thus becoming a self fulfilling prophecy.

You also decided to make a bunch of unsubstantiated claims about those posters, myself included, about our motivations while claiming we were doing the same -- when most of us were simply pointing out that your individual posts were, in fact, bad or wrong. The self-righteous victimization does not, in anyway, make people want to engage you beyond telling you to shut up.

like dude, you apparently think that the only possible reason that anyone ITT supports free trade is that we're unable to form opinions on our own and are mindless Hillary bots. that's provably false.

For anyone who didn't watch the speech which just ended, Trump began talking about building the wall and about how Mexico is going to pay for it because they are making so much money on trade and "we're not even talking about the drugs" (or something along those lines). As a direct result of mentioning that he wasn't even talking about drugs, Trump somehow dropped his Mexico thread completely and went into the story he's been telling about the drug problem in New Hampshire. I know it was joked about, but does the man seriously have some sort of severe form of ADHD? I just have trouble comprehending how else a phrase along the lines of "I'm not talking about drugs" somehow resulted in the mere presence of the word 'drugs' instantly transitioning into a tangent about drugs while the original topic was dropped completely and never came back.
