Oh well, double down I guess. A prominant Hexbear community is called “Dunking On Libs”, which, as we both know, is going to other instances where they engage in “jumping to conclusions” and “just trying to win”.

You almost had self awareness. Almost.

I’ll leave you with what I wrote in my last post:

The only way I have found to engage with users from your instance is reflexively using their own debate strategies

How do you plan on implementing these strategies in 2023, in a country that has global hegemony and the ability to prevent a 1917? Crickets again

I mean this genuinely - It seems like you’re one of the more reasonable Hexbear users, just for saying this alone:

I haven’t studied South Korea’s policies and material conditions closely enough to offer much of an informed analysis, as the world is a very big place.

Intelligence is always knowing where your current knowledge ends. I don’t have all the answers to everything either and it’s easier to engage in discussion when both participants know their limitations, which is the bare minimum required for a good faith discussion. Virtually all other Hexbear users double down and go on the offensive when they are hit with something they don’t know about, which is why I’ve developed a particular disdain for users from your instance and refrain from substantial engagement because it always devolves into sealioning. The only way I have found to engage with users from your instance is reflexively using their own debate strategies otherwise I’m constantly told I “don’t know anything unless I’ve read insert-book-of-the-week”.

I used South Korea because it’s pretty much worse than the US in every regard. My joke, “Samsung Korea”, wasn’t an ignorant American’s take thinking all they make are cell phones, rather, Samsung is basically at the top of their oligarchy and has more control over their government than US corporations, believe it or not. South Korea has one of the best life expectancies, but is one of the worse examples of capitalism.

What’s your plan? Crickets

Life expectancy doesn’t always give the whole picture.

Could have saved us a lot of time, going all the way back to the post where you used life expectancy to try to paint a whole picture.

You can keep waiting for the revolution, I’ll keep working on getting democratic socialists elected.

We can compare notes on who made a bigger difference in a few decades.

Yeah there are a lot of people smarter and better than me so that’s not the insult you think it is.

Ok, give me a call when we are about to start the people’s revolution. My mom gave me enough money to get snacks for everyone.

I support whatever this is so idk what that makes me

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_life_expectancy

I’m assuming you equally support all those capitalist countries that have high life expectancies. Samsung Korea I mean South Korea with it’s life expectancy of 84 years is generally considered a great society on Hexbear, no?

“The sky is green and I know you dumb neoliberal are going to try and tell me it’s blue!”

How do you reconcile the fact that China has more stock exchanges than BurgerlandUSA?

Pretty hard to defend, so I expected you to claim bad faith and throw in the towel. Your Hexbear friends have better endurance and wit.
