Semantics matter, they're what drive people's understandings of a situation. It's practically what a lot of subjects like the law are built on. So many of these conversations could have easily been avoided, if you were able to step back and say "you've misunderstood me" or "there's been a miscommunication", "Sorry, that's not quite what I was meaning." Instead you like to antagonize and believe you are superior; rather than accept that you are a human being with the same kinds of flaws that everyone else has. The struggle to challenge your own beliefs. That you have the same struggles to communicate and be unbiased that everyone else has. You do the same thing that you're accusing Ryuu of. You got all upset when he said X, when you meant Y, and made dozens of posts fighting a semantics battle, instead of ever admitting that maybe the way you wrote things in the first place left room for misunderstandings. I hope you achieve some personal growth by getting off your high horse, and recognize that most of us are not out to get you. And as a bonus, recognize that the world is complicated, and adding some nuance and semantics is important to understand how most things work. |
Two way street. Someone could ask for clarification instead of dogpiling with "your wrong." Hell didn't you literally make up a best friend story in the UK call me out? I am pretty sure that was you. Lol. Please. And funny nobody is out to get me but a mod is pulling off topic information and now is going after me on my wall... and who are you defending? Oh yeah, the guy pulling off topic information and going after me on my wall. Amazing to me how you can't see your own irony. |
Is this what it feels like to be gaslighted? Am I being gaslighted right now? This is a first for me, Lmao. I literally asked you multiple times for clarification to your vague all-encompassing comment and you ignored every single one, I detailed this order of events here in this post. How can you honestly sit there with a straight face and say that nobody asked for clarification...
2024 US Presidential Election

Are you sure the test wasn't something like in the context of getting a flat tyre in the middle of the road or motorway? Lol.
Exhibit B:

I asked a genuine question earlier, are you sure the test didn't say "On the motorway".

Guess what? You ignored my question, twice.
I was also the first to post the actual rule.

It is however against the law to attempt repairs on a motorway.
- DO NOT attempt repairs on your vehicle

You've now accused Pi-Guy of making up a story based on nothing except that you don't believe he has a friend in the UK who drives. I feel like when someone straight up lies about how a debate went, I'm in my right to defend myself and others who were involved in that debate, so that my reputation isn't damaged by a lie, so I am not "going after you" on your wall, I am defending myself against your lie.
Basically what you did was like: "People can't eat burgers, it's medical advice" *Argues for pages* "You idiots, I meant if you just had a triple heart bypass surgery" or "People can't walk outside" *Argues for pages* "You idiots, I clearly meant people can't walk on the motorway" or "People 100% shouldn't eat a big bar of chocolate, medical advice" ... "If you've just woken up from a stage 1 coma".
It's absolutely baffling you can't see how saying "You are 100% not suppose to change your tire. It is a government regulation." was misinterpreted by users as...You can't change your tyre in Britain...And people weren't able to read your mind that you apparently meant "on the motorway only" and not only that ignored me multiple times when I asked if that is what you meant.
I'm just going to post what I posted in Modchat and move on.
Yeah, I'm not out to get him, I tried so damn hard to be friendly towards him multiple times while watching multiple debates he has had with other users, I tried to reach out to the Republican as a Labour man and try to form a bridge between us. I've even after multiple debates with him reached out and offered any help I can provide in talking to him about a medical condition a family member of his has but I can see clearly now that me and Chrkeller are far too different and will clash a lot, our personalities do not match, at all, that is fine by me but even so my offer would still stand and before leaving he was a user I was going to PM and give my Discord in case they need to talk to me about that thing and I'm being vague out of respect.
I'm pretty self-critical of myself too, I can always improve, I know I'm not as "clean" of a debater as some people, like yourself, or RolStoppable, I know I let my emotions show a lot lately, I never use my Mod powers during debates with other users though unless it's something outright horrific but I know I've not been the best example of a Mod lately. I always try to look for sources to things when I debate things though and yes I drone on and speak a lot about certain subjects because I'm passionate about them and always try to research/look for sources but when I'm unaware of something, I seek clarification, when a user ignores my attempts at clarification, I get suspicious of their intentions.
Yes the debate was off-topic, I suggested taking it to PM/Wall but I don't believe my calling out his attitude was off-topic using the example of past history, I did not like his attitude towards me and other users, being angry about things which he himself has done in the past and thus I pointed out the hypocrisy but I guess I'm a childish, immature, 28 year old. Lol. I've heard it all before though, ironically from only Republicans, talking down to me, without them knowing my life and what I've been through and what I've been through is the reason I reach out to Chrkeller and even now with me being very annoyed with Chrkeller, I would still extend that same offer as before, don't talk down to me because you're older than me.
