schestowitzconsidering how much corporate collusion there is (its ok to talk about a conspiracy when the word “collusion” is used instead) we might as well treat “conspiracies” on a spectrum from the perfectly reasonable, to the ridiculous.Nov 04 04:23
schestowitzim not saying there arent industries to exploit such things, theres an industry for practically everything.Nov 04 04:23

schestowitz> do you want me to point out the fallacy here? i assume youre already aware of it. i mean apart from how it sidesteps all the other points i made defending it. but i could. Nov 04 08:14
schestowitz> Nov 04 08:14
schestowitz> i hoped to get you to reconsider your attack on this phrase, but its not a pet cause of mine. i dont want to squander your time or your good will arguing about something i dont consider of great importance. we both have better things to do. that doesnt mean im unwilling to discuss it further, youve humoured me this far and im willing to return the favour out of fairness, but not out of preference. Nov 04 08:14
schestowitz> Nov 04 08:14
schestowitz> but if i point out that we will likely have to "agree to disagree" i guess, it wasnt what i expected but there was never a time that we ever agreed on every single thing-- and never a time that we ever needed to, either. ive sent another article (about another topic, i can assure you) and i hope as always that it finds you well, and helps good people that we both admire and like to support.

schestowitz> the method of targeting groups in the first place, as well as the methodology (tactics) used to ruin their lives, are the similarities i find and refer to. Nov 04 08:39
schestowitz> Nov 04 08:39
schestowitz> whats odd to me about this is that recently you yourself posted a reference to the tactics of one regime, i could find it if you dont know the one im referring to, but the article mentioned communist propaganda tactics even in the title. i thought it was one you penned but i could be mistaken about that.Nov 04 08:39
schestowitz> Nov 04 08:39
schestowitz> your opinions on this may differ wildly from my own, but its odd when i thought your arguments did not. of course im not trying to use an unreasonably broad generalisation against you, or imply youre a hypocrite or anything. my interpretation of your position was likely in error and the basis of several failed attempts on my part to figure out where our (admittedly limited) common ground on this is. but the broader issue here, is that Nov 04 08:39
schestowitzif someone has a legitimate reason to use a phrase-- it doesnt matter (to me) who else uses it. i suspect there we have more common ground, let me know if im mistaken though i dont know how many misunderstands there were during this exchange-- on either of our parts. Nov 04 08:39
