1. Well, safe injection without emphasis on treatment, is a woke idea.  You're incentivizing drug use. 

1. I think it fits *my* definition but others here disagree so I'll leave it to them to ask you.

The rest of your post supports this first sentence IMO.

1.  I doubt that. 
 

Ok - i stand corrected. Even  your mom doesn't think you're kewl.  ;)

2. Top of page 2.  You quoted part of my post "But only tribally, I suspect.  It's just code for something you don't like" and you responded "This is just such a lie.".  See - my post says "I suspect", meaning that it's my opinion.  Then you called my opinion a lie.

Oh look. An attempt to distract.  You'd prefer the conversation to be about that.

You're as dishonest as the day is long mike.

3. Ok, please do.  I sincerely will try to keep an eye out.

Quote

I have many times so you'll understand why your sincerity may be in question.

I read fine - and while i may not speak 'bullcrap'  as fluently as you do i certainly recognize it when i see it.

Quote


4. Maybe you're not reading the posts that followed, with you, me, Graham et al. trying to find said definition.

The very fact you would turn the conversation into a lengthy one about the 'definiton' is proof enough.  As i said - it's an old trick, instead of addressing the issue pick a detail like a definition and argue over that instead so you can avoid the main point.

 

Quote

5. We're now in the vicinity of the philosophers like Kant and Hegel.  So if you want to go by that way of defining words, then I agree that it's a better approach.  But you have to also accept that there will be at least "quibbles" as to details as evidenced by the posts on here.  But ok

Deflect deflect deflect.

Deal with the issue.  This is not a scientific paper - this is an online discussion and it is extremely dishonest to reduce the conversation to 'quibbles'  that are irrelevant to the main point. 

 

Quote

6. Says you. 

.Yes. Because it's true.  It's that simple and while you can lie to yourself others can see it pretty clearly.

Quote

 If you want to be an absolute moralist and claim that anybody different from you is just wrong then I can also point out the fuzziness of definitions.  It's fair game as far as I can see.  Just as it's fair game for you to point out my reluctance to nail down a static and detailed definition or opinion on something

Again - completely dishonest. I have never suggested that anyone who thinks different from me is wrong. At all.

But you make that false statement so that you can then argue dishonestly about it. "Because you believe this thing you've never claimed to believe in the slightest, therefore i'm excused for doing this other thing  that's wrong'.

What utter bullcrap.
 

Quote

7.  9. 10. 11. You project your view of the world on others then.  Because I for one know you're wrong about me.

You are judged by your actions and your words.  Its' that simple. Now - this is the internet, for all i know you could ACTUALLY be a 12 year old girl or something. (sometimes i wonder)   But - judging solely on YOUR presence here i'm not wrong and I have to wonder if you know yourself as well as you think you do.

In any case i'm hardly going to give credit to someone's self evaluation who behaves as you do and calls himself a 'conservative' :)

 

Quote

8.  Never ?  Let me look at this post and see how I did... Well, oddly, you only have one question mark in your last two posts to me: "How will we ever know when all you do is participate in dishonest 'debate tricks' that bring nothing to the conversation?"  

There's nothing odd about it. There's no point asking you questions, you never answer them honestly. Lets take a look shall we?

 

Quote

My answer is: "I'm not participating in dishonest tricks.  If you think I'm being evasive or dishonest, show how.  Don't just assume that I have an agenda based on your suspicious."  That's an answer.

No, it isn't.  It would be an answer if the question was "do you or do you not use dishonest tricks'.  But that is not a question i asked.

My question was how will we ever know.  And you failed to answer it.

Believe it or not, I think we're getting somewhere.  I took you off ignore.

Oh yay. (Yawn). 

This is another dishonest trick of yours.  This weird little claim you have me on ignore off and on several times a month. It allows you to address comments i make when you feel like it but then ignore when evidence or information is provided to show you're incorrect about something or if you feel i've make a good point you don't want to address.  "Oh i didn't see that information because i had you on ignore for that particular 18 hour period."

I don't care about your 'ignore' status.  I'm going to point out when you are being dishonest either way - i really don't need YOU to read it, it's more for others anyway.  Your choice.

Well, safe injection without emphasis on treatment, is a woke idea. 

You're incentivizing drug use. 

Coupled with softening crime laws in those areas, creating virtually lawless kilometers of typically downtown cores, where I can literally sell these people fetanyl and have police turn a blind eye due to of course, being underfunded (wonder why), and the sheer explosion of the issue.

Public defecation on private property? No problem. 

This, along with the crime this brings along with it, driving businesses to leave in droves, as drug addicts look for money for their next hit.

Ignores data (on the lack of treatment being offered to the growing need of safe injections, for someone wanting to turn their lives around). Check.

Ignores unintended consequences (needles in playgrounds, used condoms in public spaces, and needing to hire "needle picker uppers, vs accept the issue has grown beyond their control". Check.

Sounds woke to me. 

Its humiliating enough to lose everything, but for those who want out, struggling to find help, is adding insult to injury.

I know way too many people who have gone homeless. 

This is true.

But at the end of the day he's got you arguing what is or is not 'woke' instead of dealing with the original issue.

The Definition of 'woke' is not that complex. In the context we tend to use it in it's idea/ideology or actions that are seen as part of the left wing side of the political spectrum which are extreme often to the point of being absurd or detrimental.

How hard is that? Yes -safe injection can be woke if it's taken to an extreme.  If it's matched with an effective strategy to get people off of drug use - not so woke. Still left wing - not woke.

 

Sex education in school  - slightly left wing but not woke.  Demanding books that teach homosexual technique and how to give a blow job be available to 7 year olds - woke. (yes that happened).

Teaching kids that we shouldn't judge people just because they look different from us - not woke.  Banning dr seuss's "to think i saw it on mulberry street" because of a cartoon in it -  totally woke.

Saying that it's wrong to exclude black people is not woke.  Building them their own little areas at universities like cages so they can self-segregate and send the message that they're NOT to be included is beyond woke.

Saying children should be respected - not wokr.  Saying parents have no rights - woke.

 

 

This isn't hard.  it's a dishonest distraction that Mike is using to avoid having to have a conversation he doesn't think will end well for his 'Side'.

The books were balanced, but they refused to toe the line. As a result  some were banned.

I literally felt like I was smuggling cocaine across the border when I ordered that book, as it was banned anywhere I could see in Canada. I can't even read it in public.

What do you mean by banned? 

Were online book stores just not selling them due to pressure from special interest groups, or were they actually banned by the gov't?

 

Is the lgbtq/woke crowd, in a sense, trying to cancel you for being you? Or trying to cancel your way of life? I'm just trying to get an accurate sense of how you feel about it.

You're not 'just responding'.  You brought it up - you attempt to continue it.  It's a distraction

And you have frequently claimed there is 'no definition of woke' to dismiss it's use to describe something. Rather than deal with whatever got called woke

and you do not wish to be accountable for what you write. That's the challenge. Again - you use cheap debate tactics rather than have discussions but you don't want to be accountable for it in the slightest.

And no it's not a 'loaded question' it's just rhetorical.  But it's the one you chose as an example and you STILL didn't answer it.

Which rather proves my point.

and no - that's not a dishonest trick .  It's a simple rhetorical question - but if you choose to answer it anyway then at least answer the question.  Which you failed to do.

Find me anything currently woke that isn't dumb, or lacking any thought of unintended consequences or pragmatism in solving an issue.

Maybe you're right on this not full on being woke, but have seen so many far left government officials on such issues using the same catchphrases to defend it.

IE many people will die, providing zero supporting data to show that this is remotely true.

The book in question was canceled by Amazon, and other major book retailers, under withering pressure from the LGBTQ community. It accuses it of transphobia.

The book went on the wrong path, the moment it stated gender isn't assigned at birth and presented medical specialists who weren't afraid to state the same. You know you're getting banned, when.

No government intervention that I know of. Just businesses not wanting to be canceled, by holding such a book. I bought it at Barnes and Noble, because couldn't find any companies in my city, let alone Canada that dared to carry it.

Not sure if our government cracked down on it, but to me it just piques my curiosity. Same thing that pushed me to watch the Closer by Chapelle. I needed to see if it was that bad.

I was on a major LGBTQ discussion board with hundreds of thousands of people on it.

It was clear as day. Conservstive views were not welcome.

If I didn't toe the line, I would get withering pressure to align with the group views or be bullied into oblivion. I could stand my ground, so when the bullying didn't work, they would try to tell me that my views can cause someone to kill themselves. That also didn't work, because I have never told anyone to kill themselves who didn't deserve the words (meaning enough personal attacks for me to give return fire). Meaning I don't feel remorse for those who I have told this to.

You have to be quite low online, for me to be that petty.

Nobody has ever canceled me for my views, as I don't go out of my way to disrespect people.

I just don't feel like I belong to the community, nor do I care much for it. I don't hate the community, as most I have met were great. I just hate the political activism behind it.

I know who I am, and couldn't care less how others feel about me, so wasn't disappointed when I got banned.  

Never have been banned before, so almost made me feel important how many moderators voted in favor.

All woke things are dumb.  Safe Injection is dumb.  Therefore it is woke.

Syllogistic Fallacy:

Anything i don't like is a logical fallacy.  I don't like the term 'woke'. Therefore it must be a logical fallacy.

It's pretty easy to do that, but it's neither accurate or honest.

It's 'woke' because it is an extreme positon that does not actually produce results and those who wish to promote it are doing so from ideological rather than practical considerations when it's done without any effort to get people off the drugs.

Again - not complicated.

It's pretty simple mike. And it's not really your definition - it's actually in the dictionary pretty much that way.  About the best you can do 'progress' wise is explore what various people on an individual bases consider to be excessive or extreme, and while that's kind of sort of interesting it doesn't change the definition. Just like people's opinion of what's "too hot" or "too cold" may differ but it doesn't change the definition of hot and cold.

Well keep at it - i've actually made a very tidy sum writing comedy in the past and if it's something you love to do just do it. As my mentor said "birds fly, fish swim, writers write".  Also - "everyone's got 1000 bad jokes/stories in them so you just have to keep writing till you get rid of them all.  Good humour is both extremely easy and very difficult at the same time ;)

Now. As to your post.

Once again - very little in the way of substance. Not a lot in the way of arguments or reasoned positions or data or evidence or anything. No thought is required to read it and little effort, thinking or research to respond.

Do better. You're supposed to be the 'smart' one on the left around here.

4.  I never said you did. Can you point to where i claimed you were saying anything of the kind? Nope? 

5. Well there you go - your usual bait and switch.

6. Can't argue what i said so pretend i said something i didn't and argue that.

7. You DID however ask what would make a safe injection site woke earlier and you DID suggest that the reason some think it's 'woke' is because it's 'dumb'. 

8. I simply pointed out why it was woke. I didn't comment on what YOUR opinion might be at all.

9. Try to let THAT sink in mr "i don't use cheezy debate tactics' :)

1. Why was it a 'poor reference' ?
2. My attempt was inaccurate ?  Dishonest ?  I didn't get that from your post.   The syllogism itself actually makes sense, so non sequitur.
3. No, it made sense in the context of what I was commenting on.  Graham got it.
4. Ok, good.  I wasn't sure what you were saying...
5. No, you infer that I am accusing you of saying that.  I just wasn't sure so I clarified my position there.  You seem to react as though you have touched an electric fence.  You're likely afraid of my "dishonest traps" LOL
6. No... I illustrated what I thought was a syllogistic fallacy and you came back with a syllogism that made sense... Did you... ah forget it... 
7. No, Perspektiv said something like that I think... not me.
8. Ok then.  I just didn't get what the syllogism was supposed to be making fun of, I guess.
9. Got it.

 Do better. You're supposed to be the 'smart' one on the left around here.

Doubly wrong - nobody says I'm the "smart one" and I'm not left.

Well apparently it was both weeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiirrrrrdddd  and illogical :)  i'd say that makes it poor :)

In what way WASN'T it a poor reference? Explain how it was accurate and a realistic depcition of what the original poster you were referencing said.

You see the part where i said it was neither accurate or honest? Go back and look you must have missed it.

I think you were. I think you got called out for trying to yet again bait and switch and you're trying to play it off as a simple misunderstanding. But you have a LOT of misunderstandings i notice. So it's hard to give that much credit.

You literally said it.

Perhaps your use of the term WEEEEEEEEEIIIIRRRRRD and illogical  made me mistake your position that it made sense all along.

Well for the first part i was being kind. For the second - you are absolutely on the left unless you spend almost your entire time here aggressively faking it.

There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data
