    You're aware that you're the one who read "dictator" and thought of President Biden, right?

    And at what point did I refer to President Biden as "Dictator Biden"?

    I made a general statement. You interpreted it as a specific one. I clarified to quash any confusion. And yet you keep running with your incorrect interpretation. Please though....keep telling me how stupid I am.

    So you're ok with a dictatorship as long as your goals are aligned with the dictator's?

    This is not a general statement. This is asking me straight up if I support a dictatorship as long as my goal aligned with THE dictator.

    It's not a general dictator, it's the dictator. Why the fk would u ask this to anyone wondering if they support a dictator.

    Coincidently as I was praising that biden student loan relief were good and Republicans are hypocrites for btching after they got ppp loans forgiven.

    U aren't clarifying jack sht. Just using your mental gymnastics ability to pivot it into being a general statement.

    The question of if I support the dictator vs folks who condone acts of dictators are dictator supporters aren't the same sht no matter how much u want to spin it of being the same general statement.

    It was a general statement. Note how it didn't reference anyone specifically.

    On your part, the logical follow-up should've been "Are you saying that President Biden is a dictator?"

    Instead, you went with the illogical follow-up "You're saying President Biden is a dictator."

    Ah yes now it's my fault as we were talking about Bidens move to help student loan relief, u wondered if I supported the dictator as long as my goals aligned.

    Your mental gymnastics ability is astounding.

    First off why would u even ask me if I support the dictator. What even brought up that train of thought. What gave u the impression that made u wonder if I support dictator(s). No one just straight up ask if they support a dictator the dictators without any reference or triggers

    Either @wekko368 doesn't know how to have a conversation or he's just trying to get away with word games.

    Why would he bring up support for dictators in a conversation about Biden and student loans if he wasn't implying that. Why pick the time in a conversation when Biden and student loans are brought up to all of a sudden change the topic and have a conversation about dictators on general?

    Just so I'm clear.....you're saying I don't know how to have a conversation, but the guy who

    1. when faced with a possible implication, instead of asking for clarification, makes accusations
    2. when given clarification regarding the possible implication, chooses to ignore the clarification
    3. continually repeats accusation that has already been proven invalid

    You think that guy knows how to have a conversation?

    If so, I'm glad you think I don't.

    You're spouting nonsense.

    You know you were referring to Biden. You've wasted a lot of time trying to find a way to get out of it.

    It's been explained to you why there is only one logical conclusion.

    But if you want to keep playing, fine.

    Why when talking about Biden and his executive order did you (supposedly) switch the conversation to talking about generic dictators?

    You haven't explained that. Everyone else in this thread followed the conversation and understands how conversation works.

    By the way, you are the same person who tried to implicate Biden wouldn't be acting president unless Trump conceded.

    You're wrong every step you've made, junior.

    So maybe (even possibly likely) they do shoot it down. If President Biden were to then declare some sort of law outside of Congress in regards to loan forgiveness, THEN it would be a dictator-like action. The act of an Executive Order is not dictatorial. They are perfectly legal, until they're not. There's also an argument to be made that this action will survive court scrutiny.

    It's hard to shoot down when the government holds most of the loans as they'd be the aggrieved.

    Much like Trumps subsidies to Iowa farmers, its in a murkey grey area where the opposition party in Congress isn't going to stand in the way, so all they can do is complain and do the same damn thing when they are in power.

    What a stupid way of defense, line of thinking.

    Really reminds me of the amber heard defamation defense. Oh I didn't put johnny depp name explicitly when I said, I was a survivor of domestic abuse. No sht the implication is quite obvious.

    I guess the world had reading comprehension problems also and were quick to attack johnny depp. Folks should have clarified with amber heard on who she was referencing about. Pfffffft.

    Yea get that sht out of here, no reference to biden. I was literally talking about him when u brought the topic of supporting the dictator.

    Still never bother to address why would u even ask me if I support the dictator.

    What even brought up that train of thought.

    What gave u the impression that made u wonder if I support dictator(s).

    No one just straight up ask someone if they support dictatorship or dictator(s) without any reference or triggers.

    Pretty clear he just is trying to pretend he meant something else rather than just simply saying he made a mistake and moving on from that.
