I kindly ask you to edit out the word coward in your comment. I hope that this thread stays unlocked for as long as possible. I also believe that words like these we often use do contribute partly to their hate.

China does not take an interest in spying on the average westerner.

Sorry, I just found out that I missed the sarcasm in “a simple tactic they don’t know of called ‘whataboutism’”. I did get the sarcasm for the rest of the post, but for some reason I did not realize that that sentence was also sarcastic. Apparently it’s making fun of people calling our arguments whataboutism, lol.

If you don’t want to use soy sauce because you don’t have it at home, you should go get a bottle at your local supermarket NOW. It’s so good. If you don’t want to use soy sauce because you just don’t like it, then oh well.

Are you sure that we should use “whataboutism”? It’s actually a logical fallacy.

Whataboutism or whataboutery (as in “what about…?”) denotes in a pejorative sense a procedure in which a critical question or argument is not answered or discussed, but retorted with a critical counter-question which expresses a counter-accusation. From a logical and argumentative point of view it is considered a variant of the tu-quoque pattern (Latin ‘you too’, term for a counter-accusation), which is a subtype of the ad-hominem argument.

Am I the only one that hates people saying that something isn’t good, it’s great? It does not make any sense, and it’s not even funny. It’s like the “was I a good boy” meme:

Maybe I’m just too serious.

Judging by your post history you are definitely trying to stir shit up.
