I just answered your questions 🤷‍♂️ Sorry you didn't like the answers.

At what point did I accuse you of avoiding questions? You doing okay over there?

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

See, this response, like your others, shows a definite lack of contextual reasoning. You never accused me of avoiding anything and the fact that you think I think you did (apart from being obvious projection) shows you have misunderstood everything I've said on a fundamental level. So again, I'm sorry you don't like the answers to your questions, but I don't have any different answers to give you.

Oh, sorry. I didn't realize you had gone all the way back to the beginning of this and had abandoned the fact that you keep projecting onto me.

It had nothing to do with me not liking your answer, but pointing out the glaring logical flaws of it. But I don't have any different response to logically fallacious arguments.

So the "glaring logical flaw" in me suggesting that Olympic shooting must be easier than whatever other form of competitive shooting op was talking about because it's "boring as hell" was that I was projecting my opinion onto you? Even though you weren't part of the discussion yet? Huh?

No, I explained it to you. But you don't like the explanation. It's like you were warning me.

All you ever said was that I was projecting, which was not a critique of my logic but of my delivery of the explanation of the logic. You haven't actually addressed my point in any of these comments.

Incorrect. Feel free to go back to the beginning, which you've already done, and reread my dismantling of your garbage logic.

You just ignored it and started whining about how your strawmen and projection was actually my fault.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

All you did was misunderstand the word "should" and then cry "projection,' neither of which addressed my actual argument in the slightest.

[–] EatATaco@lemm.ee -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

All you did was misunderstand the word “should”

Incorrect. I admitted I was wrong here and made another argument. However, in your previous post you said "all I did" was say that you were projecting. Now "all I've done" is something completely different. Maybe you should stop trying to cherry pick parts of my argument as "all I did" and address my actual points.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Make a point and I'll address it.
