Al Gore's internet was a mistake
this has been the worst fucking shit since gaf was doing it in like 2009
any disagreement at all and you're met with "go to amazon and buy these three books and read through them and then get back to me, otherwise you're wasting my time"
yeah ok
I'll just not have a discussion on this discussion forum because I haven't read the exact same sources as you, which may be biased, incorrect, indoctrinating, and ultimately I may find unconvincing, to be met with your curt reply of "hm k agree to disagree
"
no one ever reads this shit, no matter who presents it or what the subject is
whenever your first thought is to do this, imagine whether you would read THEIR bullshit and of course you wouldn't
presenting someone with a massive pile of reading material is also a good sign that they are incapable of the kind of independent thought needed to succinctly summarize their own points, presumably their own strongly-held beliefs they can't even defend so they just try to dismiss the person with homework
and before you keyboard warriors start typing away furiously don't @ me,
read this and then you'll have the knowledge to properly address this subject
