Why would anyone need to cope with the value of individuals in pre-civilization society? These things are not relevant anymore, an individual’s value to society is mostly determined through productivity and wealth now.
Geneva – The Israeli army’s execution of an elderly Palestinian after using him in a propaganda campaign promoting its “safe corridor” in Gaza was strongly condemned in a statement released by Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor today....
It’s quite simple, really: You seem to believe speaking English, like billions of other people on this planet, makes me biased. At the same time, an organization founded by someone from one of the countries involved in the conflict is apparently objective. That does not make sense in any way, shape or form. Is that clear enough to you?
So you think the two are equivalent? You really don’t see how someone could be biased on topics that concern their own country? Are you actually listening to yourself?
Most Palestinians probably speak English as well. According to your logic, that would make them biased against Palestine, then?
Btw you don’t need to further prove your ignorance of the English language, you’ve done enough of that that already.
Next time, maybe try coming up with some actual arguments rather than parroting other people’s, though. That might make you sound at least a bit less stupid.
Or at least try to think about what the sentences you’re copying even mean, because that’s exactly what they implied.
Why would I listen to your arguments when they sound like something a preschooler would come up with? I am generally quite open-minded, it is not impossible to change my mind on a lot of things. It doesn’t really feel like you’re trying, though. You seem to have given up actually trying to make a point quite a while ago.
I can tell you something I know I am right about: nobody here is unbiased. Not you, not me, not the guy that posted this. It’s pretty much impossible to actually be objective in this conflict. However, it takes no more than a few minutes of looking at the website of this “news” organization (it really isn’t) to find out that most of their “news” articles on this conflict are unfounded accusations against Isreael with no source other than “someone told us”. You’d have to be insane to actually believe everything they say. There’s a reason no serious news outlet uses them as a source.
You are taking it personally, as proven by your childish insults.
If you had taken some time to think about what I said instead of getting angry, you would have perhaps noticed that I never said that we couldn’t trust anyone from Palestine. Rather that this article cites no credible and verifiable sources and that their ties to Palestine are a possible explanation for why they might not be completely objective in their reporting.
Though I wonder, do you always believe wartime propaganda without any independent verification? Would, say, a Russian article about Ukrainian warcrimes be 100% believable to you? After all, just because they’re Russian, doesn’t mean anything they said is false, misleading or incorrect. You might just be biased against them.
I’m not offended, I just find it funny that you’re insisting you aren’t getting angry while getting angry.
Anyways, there is a big difference between doubting someone can be completely objective and not believing a word they say. You don’t have to be objective to be correct. Though in this specific case, I see no reason to trust the author, since there are no credible sources.
Do I really need to repeat myself? What I said in the comment you referenced is completely correct. No, being biased does not necessarily mean you are wrong, as I also already explained. Though I don’t really know what you’re even trying to achieve here, since you are ignoring everything I say anyways.
I can imagine that someone disagreeing with one is annoying if one thinks their opinions are the objective truth. Unfortunately, that’s not how it works.
The top quote is horseshit, so I wouldn’t want to take credit for that anyways.
Ad hominem again… you realize that achieves nothing, right? You can try to insult me all you want, it just makes you look even more pathetic. Especially since you’re not even pretending to talk about the actual topic any more.
I’m not upvoting my comments lmao, it does that automatically. I couldn’t care less about upvotes - unlike you, apparently.
Have you considered a career in politics? You seem to be pretty good at avoiding questions and derailing convetsations, which seems to be all the rage with politicians everywhere.
And with the childish insults again. You should really stop making a fool of yourself.
I’m making fun of what now? I did not even know that. You are interpreting everything as a personal attack, that is the issue here.
You seem to think you are taking revenge of some kind by insulting me. Implying you think you are hurting my feelings or something. Sorry to have to tell you this, but it’ll take a bit more to do that than some rabdom stranger’s preschooler level insults.
I have. Multiple times. But I guess you were too busy coming up with more kindergarten-level comebacks to actually come up with a response?
I’m really not sure why you’re even still replying to me. I mean, I think this conversation is hilarious, but you are clearly just getting upset about it, I don’t see what you’re achieving here.
You aren’t even remotely making sense, do you realize that? It’s quite obvious how angry you are, denying it just makes you sound even more silly.
But, serious question: do you think that I feel insulted by some child online calling me an idiot? Do you think that that does anything at all other than making you sound stupid? It’s like you keep banging your head against a wall, expecting it to break any moment. I’m sorry, but it won’t. If you want to actually insult people (and you clearly do, you don’t even pretend to be here to discuss anything, you obviously just want to fight) you’ll have to do a lot better than that.
Oh yeah, you just “speak aggressively”. Lol. Lmao, even.
Making an argument doesn’t really do much when speaking with you, since you’ll just ignore it and keep on crying about how everyone else is forcing you to be a dickhead.
If you wanted to discuss something, you’d be free to reply to any of the arguments you ignored earlier. But we both know you don’t.
Are you actually a human? You just keep saying the same things over and over. Or just repeating things I said, there’s just no original thoughts there whatsoever.
Though I wonder - do you actually believe the things you say? I am kind of getting the feeling you are just trying to discredit the side you claim to be on by making them all look stupid.
On a side note, please stop spending so much time on the internet, it clearly isn’t good for you.
