I never once suggested that people need to read a list compiled by me to have a discussion with me, so I'm not sure where that came from. The list isn't a prerequisite for discussion, neither Meow nor I implied that. I also said you're completely okay to not discuss with me, I also despise debate culture, getting cheap "wins," etc. I just pointed out why people may be "dogpiling" you, as you said. I'm fully comfortable with not having a discussion with you, I've said so multiple times, so I'm also not sure why you describe me of not understanding why you don't want to. I do understand.
You were upset because you felt I was trying to position myself as wisened in order to be condescending. I'm pointing out that this wasn't my intention, I was doing so to explain why I don't do public debates regarding Marxism anymore, which you were arguing that I should probably be doing. You could not have understood that before I explained it, because you have no clue what my intentions are without me telling you, man.....
I think this is the end though, bud. Have a good one, but we just aren't looking for the same kind of conversations, man. I'm not interested in the debate that you are.
I don't know what tour intentions are, and I didn't suggest that I did. I understand why you don't discuss Marxism, you told me already. I'm not sure why you think I'm forcing you to "debate me," I already explained that it's fine not to. Really not sure what you're trying to do here.
