Whatever happened to the "Lets help D&D Debate and Discuss" Thread?

In casual political conversation or just in general I keep getting to what I call the "Equivocation Argument". Essentially, over any topic I will argue for or against something and I'll get back "Well, both Democrats and Republicans suck. They're really just the same!".

Which is obviously not accurate but I'm curious what's the best strategy to cut this down? I feel like if I just get more detailed my audience gets lost.

Lmbo I decided to look up what your outburst was because you occupy so little of my brain that I had forgotten about which time you were a prick with a victim complex and it was you wishing I would kill.myself because I told you that you don't get to decide what does and doesn't count as sex work

This is like the third or fourth time I can think of that you've gone off about my existence and weirdly every time everyone yells at you about how wrong you are it's incredible

And you tried to justify it with someone posted this death threat at me and maybe it was Dickeye but I don't think so like that's remotely in character for me to hide behind a parachute

I could go for one big snow and then springtime. But instead we'll get mudwinter and in three months start the transition to swamp furnace.

NY weather varies quite a bit depending on where you live. Buffalo gets pretty much the same weather I do on the other side of Lake Ontario. Hell winters, hot humid summers, and spring/fall being way too short.

VB has been supporting the intervention in Venezuela in the thread. I don’t know his particular stance on Abrams but supporting the intervention but condemning Abrams is a nonsense stance.
